More Information

Alkaline Trio -

A fast, grungey punk rock group from America formed in 1997. Their trademark style takes the melodic charm of the best pop punk music and marries it to intelligent and unflinching lyrics. A strange formula but one that seems to work and has won them a loyal following. With two significant releases behind them - 'Good Mourning' (2003), and 'Crimson' (2005) - there's every reason to look forwards to the trio's future.

Flogging Molly -

Picking up the flag from The Pogues and then turning the volume up to eleven, Californian band Flogging Molly are simply an amazing live act. Celtic music taken to the next logical stage by blazing punk rock guitars and incessant light-speed drumming.
