Inspired by The Pogues

The Pogues were basically the first band to marry traditional Irish music with the aggression of punk rock. Their riotous yet melody-rich tunes and story-driven anthems have had a huge impact on spirited punk and alt-rock bands like Dropkick Murphys, The Tossers, and Flogging Molly. They've even swayed the slamming indie rock of The Libertines and the gentler, literate songs of The Decemberists.
