This review is from: Here's Mud in Yer Eye! (Audio CD)

"Here's Mud in Yer Eye" is exactly what you'd expect to hear from a band that grew up listening less to the Chieftains and the Dubliners, more to the Pogues and ... well, pretty much just the Pogues. The difference is, while a lot of those bands don't have the chops to pull off that kind of aggressive punk-Celtic slam blast, London-Irish band Neck bloody well does. The music is rowdy, maybe a little pissed off and audibly fueled by Bushmill's and stout.

The recording is filled with old faves and original tracks. The originals are a mixed bag, with the song "Topless Mary Poppins" turning out not to be half so good as the title would suggest, while the instrumental track "A Fistful of Shamrock" is a beautiful blast of music. As for the trad bits, anyone who's been in an Irish pub on a pivotal day of sport is going to love this rendition of "The Fields of Athenry."
