Every Album Ever w/ Mike Mansour & Alex Volz
Music:Music Commentary
This week we’re discussing every album by The Pogues. Led by the world’s most infamous set of teeth, Shane MacGowan, The Pogues pioneered Celtic punk. If you’re not sure what that sounds like, just imagine the most Irish music you can, speed it up to 100bpm, and you’ve nailed it. Which is a bit ironic since they’re from London and not Ireland. This definitely isn’t a band for everyone, but they’re fun, snarly, and talented as all hell. Grab a pint and sit back, this is a fun one.
Closing track: “Turkish Song of the Damned” from If I Should Fall from Grace with God (1988)
