One of our fans said it better than we ever could....
"Irish punk without the plastic paddy posing."
"Hailing from the same county in Ireland as the infamous Christy Moore, Blood or Whiskey have more in common with Irish-Londoner's The Pogues than with their countyman. Rough, rugged, heartfelt vocals over paddybeat/punk music complete with tin whistle, bouzouki, accordian and banjos. Their second album, No Time To Explain shows a band that's progressing with each and every release. It's no wonder they're shared show billing with some of the greats including Mister Dubliner Himself, Ronnie Drew!
Do yourself a favor and check them out, even if it's just to hear their song for Bob, oops I mean, SIR Bob Geldof appropriately titled, Your Majesty....Great stuff indeed."

"They've got the musicianship, they've got a neat line in self-deprecation, and they've got attitude by the skipful - an essential ingredient in any concoction laying claim to the hallowed crossroads where punk collides with trad." -- Siobhán Long, Irish Times
"Slightly demented yet oddly charming" -- Dave Sleger, Rolling Stone
