Flogging Molly – Speed of Darkness

Flogging Molly - Speed of Darkness

 

Celtic punk band Flogging Molly is back with their new album, “Speed of Darkness.” This may be the best Flogging Molly album to date. Pure speed and power and punk aggression. One think you can not deny about this album, it is FUN. From start to finish they keep up the pace and make you want to raise your fist and drink a Guiness. It is also the fist album to be released on their own label Borstal Beat.

 

Songs like “Speed of Darkness” and “Revolution” open the album with a fun and rockous tone, “Revolution” itself speaking of starting a damn revolution! Into the slower, yet heavier at parts “The Heart of the Sea.” Moving on down to my favorite song “Oliver Boy(All of Our Boys) a great song. Powerful and meaningful. Vocalist Dave King sounds better than ever. His throaty, celtic yells and his powerful pipes just as prominent as ever.

 

Rating: 10/10

One of THE albums of the year from every genre. My favorite Flogging Molly album and it should be yours too!

About Matthew Kuritz

Born in 1989 in a small town in South Carolina, Matthew was raised on metal. His father, a huge KISS and other classic rock/metal fan and his brother wh owas raised during he hay-day of Hair Metal and Grunge, Matthew was made to do this. I digest any and all music that comes my way; not just metal. Metal for me strikes the rebellious, angry, and energizing nerve that no other music can. Metal has the most talent, most feeling, and most power than any kind of music. I am always up for discussing anything and everything involving metal and other music.
