Album Review

The band that played on the Titanic — at least in the movie version of the tale — has managed to build on that invaluable exposure. While there is some traditional music on here, perfectly competently played, the real focus is on Gaelic Storm's own material. They touch on themes that seem endemic to the Irish — homesickness and drinking, for the most part — in a musical blend that takes ideas from the tradition and mixes them with generally uptempo acoustic rock that's never offensive (unlike, say, the Pogues).

Customer Reviews

One of their best albums

I've been a long time Gaelic Storm fan, pretty much since I first saw them in Titanic. This album is one of my favorites mostly due to songs like Born to Be a Bachelor, Punjab Paddy, Pina Colada in a Pint Glass, and one of my favorite instrumentals, The Lone-Star Stowaway. If you like Irish music, or are just looking for something not so main stream, check out Gaelic Storm. And if you ever get the chance to see them live, do it because they are amazing! GS 4 Life!

Still goin!

Listening to this album while drinking a cup of Barry's tea just doesn't get any better! It's so much like their first album, and a gem none-the-less! If they're EVER in town, I would highly suggest you cancel any plans for that night, grab your lassie, a pint, and don't forget your Wellies!

It Keeps On Keeping On

For those looking for a great mix of traditional celtic musicianship and fun, energetic songs this is one of the best. Gaelic Storm delivers time and time again...and this album proves it. Some very traditional type music displaying their excellent training in their respective areas. And then some very fun and party-type music with accompanying lyrics.
