“The idea of the title ['Starburster'] is about embracing the necessary delusion in terms of how to function [in everyday life]. I imagine it as a world within a snow globe, that you can slip into like a warm bath, but within that world is all the madness and the hysteria. It's about embracing that.”
Tumblr media
“This album is about my fascination with falling in love at the end of the world: the album is about protecting that tiny flame. The bigger armageddon looms, the more precious it becomes.”
Tumblr media
“We’ve always had this sense of idealism and romance. Each album gets further away from observing that through the lens of Ireland, as directly as ‘Dogrel‘. The second album is about that detachment, and the third is about Irishness dislocated in the diaspora. Now we look to where and what else there is to be romantic about.”

Hey beautiful people of Tumblr, this is the last place I thought I would post my music, but I love this community more than anything and I really hope you guys love what I’m doing just as much. I’ll drop a link below to my new album, it’s my debut, and I’d appreciate anyone checking it out, much love and hope you’re having a blessed day.

Damn. We lost another Irish music legend.
R.I.P. Sinéad O'Connor
I’m still reeling over Dolores O’Riordan.
I’m mourning for you Ireland.
You’ve gone through a lot.

Shane Patrick Lysaght MacGowan (25 December 1957 – 30 November 2023)
Shane was a British-born Irish singer-songwriter and musician best known as the lead vocalist and primary lyricist of Celtic punk band the Pogues.
He also produced solo material and collaborated with artists including Joe Strummer, Nick Cave, Steve Earle, Sinéad O'Connor, Ronnie Drew, and Cruachan. 
Frequently noted for his exceptional songwriting ability as well as his heavy alcohol and drug use, MacGowan was described by The New York Times as "a titanically destructive personality and a master songsmith whose lyrics painted vivid portraits of the underbelly of Irish immigrant life.”
Rest in Power.
The band and Shane’s widow, Victoria Mary Clarke, back campaign to finally try and get The Pogues Christmas classic ‘Fairytale of New York’ to number one.
The 7” single is available to pre-order now and All profits from vinyl sales to benefit Dublin Simon Community - a charity loved and supported by Shane and Victoria.

He lives in Texas now, but his heart is still in the Big Easy.

#OTD in 1987 – ‘Fairytale of New York’ by the Pogues and Kirsty McColl reaches No. 2 in the UK charts.
Recorded in the summer of 1987 and released later that year, The Pogues‘ ‘Fairytale of New York’ famously never made it to number one in the UK first time around, held off the top spot by Pet Shop Boys’ version of ‘Always On My Mind.’     The song, which took over two years to write and features the late, great Kirsty MacColl, has come close several times in the decades since then, reaching No.…

Some of the most enjoyable power-pop I’ve heard in a long time; CMAT is absolutely one to watch.

Went to the Spook School "10 year Anniversary of Dress Up" show last night. Fucking incredible show, no wonder my partner was so excited to see them.
I was not ready for the fucking mind-blowing support band. They're called Problem Patterns, they're from Ireland, and they're a self described "Queer Intergender Feminist Rage" band. Holy fuck that's accurate. They RAGEEEEE. They were fucking INCREDIBLE.
I've never seen anything that PUNK before. Never seen a band so ferocious and furious and powerful with it. The songs fucked super hard, the lyrics went even harder, the crowd was INTO IT. The coolest thing about it? No designated singer/guitarist/drummer/bassist. They ALL swapped and changed and slayed for like every song. Incredible shit.
The songs? I mean..
Tumblr media
Titles should give you a clue but they do not justify how INCREDIBLE they were to witness live. An absolute moment. I, as a He/They, know their music isn't speaking FOR me, but it absolutely blew me away and my partner was HYPED UP. She told me that she got goosebumps during the first song. I mean these lyrics so go fucking hard dude

Please, if you like punk, pissed off women, bands like Bikini Kill or Fresh or just are looking for some new incredible female/Intergender rock music or whatever the fuck; I IMPLORE YOU please check them out. They're fucking incredible.
