Editorial Reviews

Product Description
CD includes Bonus DVD. Dropkick Murphys have repackaged their album, The Meanest Of Time, to include extra tracks and a bonus DVD, for a limited time only. It contains all the best of the band's sound: a complex distillation of classic Punk Rock, Celtic folk, and American Rock 'n'Roll. "They're also songwriters and good ones too, preserving their party-boy reputation while turning out giant, soulful choruses on songs both manicured and memorable" - Rolling Stone (four stars). The tunes included are ' Famous For Nothing', 'The State Of Massachusetts', 'Echoes On 'A' Street', 'Loyal To No One', 'Johnny, I Hardly Knew Ya', 'Jailbreak', 'The Thick Skin Of Defiance' and more. --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.

4.0 out of 5 stars one more good release..., May 4, 2008
By faliboni (Torino, Italy) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Meanest of Times (Limited Edition Extra Tracks & Bonus DVD) (Audio CD)
Once again dropkick murphys do deliver the goods...good tunes, well played and recorded, 4 stars fully deserved!!!
I got the limited edition for the extra-dvd, but I have to say I was a bit disappointed as it's nothing special.
The extra tracks are ok: special mention for a good cover of Jailbreak (Thin Lizzy).

5.0 out of 5 stars Irish / American Rock at its Best, July 2, 2009
This review is from: The Meanest of Times (Limited Edition Extra Tracks & Bonus DVD) (Audio CD)
This by far one of the best rock bands in the uS right now. To bad they do not get their deserved dues. A true Party Band if ever there was
This CD is full of Rock & roll mixed with traditional Irish folk songs done with a different twist.
The best Among the songs is (F)Lannigan's Ball with guest vocals from Ronnie Drew and SpiderStacy of the Irish group The Pogue's. They also do a cover from another Irish band 'Thin Lizzy's' Jailbreak.
Also included in this Limited Edition set is DVD with the State of Massachusetts and the behind the scenes of the Murphy's.
If you want to listen togreat rock and something to party to, this is the CD!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Really Grows on You, February 24, 2009
By S. Albertson "Irish Punk" (Long Beach, CA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Meanest of Times (Limited Edition Extra Tracks & Bonus DVD) (Audio CD)
Typical modern Dropkick Murphys sound and songs, that just grow on you so well the more you listen. Some real standouts that become instant classics such as State of Massachusetts, Echoes on "A" Street, and of course Flannigans Ball.
