I couldn't agree more! Once the original singer for Dropkick Murphys quit the band I stopped listening. I just didn't like the direction that their sound took after that.

I also have a hard time getting past the fact that the singer for Flogging Molly was the frontman for the cheesy heavy metal band Fastway.

Well I have to disagree with the New Yorker on that last point
Any band that can help end an 86 year World Series drought gets my support.

Another drought is about to begin. thanks for johnny damon

Neither FM or Dkm are even close to the Pogues musically or lyrically .

I heard an interview with one of the Real McKenzies in which he says the DKMs came to a few of their shows back in the beginning of their career and liked the bagpipe so much that they adopted it into their music.

First time I heard DKM was their cover of the BC Fight Song "For Boston".
I think they are pretty good, their Live St. Patrick's Day CD makes it
into heavy rotation on my car CD (esp. "Nutty" before hockey-you
old time 1970's Bruins Fans know what I am talking about!).

They are definitely influenced by the Pogues, but they were also heavily
influenced by the Clash and older Boston bands like Gang Green.
