The band's blend of traditional Irish folk melodies with punk rock energy is a winning combination that feels fresh and exciting.

Lead singer Arttu Lesonen's gravelly vocals add a gritty edge to the band's sound, while the rest of the group's tight musicianship keeps the energy high throughout the album.
