They do a ton of trad. arrangements.


I'm not sure which ones off the top of my head tho.

I listened to the Pogues, but I'm not much hearing the similarity besides the roots in folk songs (Such as the droning bass lines...).

The weirdest thing they do is prolly a cover of "Charlie on the MTA" which is called "Skinhead on the MBTA." I know, it's not exactly a traditional irish song, but I felt like mentioning it.

Have you heard much form their new album? I tend to prefer it to most of their stuff.
