Description
‘Blackout’ is the fourth studio album by American Celtic punk Dropkick Murphys, released on 10th June 2003.
The music on ‘Blackout’ rocks, has a truckload of sweat, blood and energy & conveys an intense insight into relationships (‘Walk Away’) & personal politics (‘Gonna Be A Blackout Tonight’ – lyrics written by Woody Guthrie after the band was given special exclusive access & permission to use the words of Woody Guthire through his family). The record still contains rousing tunes rooted in Irish music & American Folk (‘Black Velvet Band’ & ‘The Dirty Glass’) and destined to be a Boston Bruins call to arms classic called “Time To Go”. And it’s important to mention that each member of the band played a crucial role, working hand in hand to create this record. Everyone’s influence from the youngest member of the band to the most experienced, bring together their many influences to play a role in creating an all time gem of a rock record. With each new record, they just don’t let up, their passion, life experience & and true commitment to music fans shines through on every song.
