Fair enough, but I was not aware of that being specifically 'punk'. It follows then that any music that has those particular instruments to the fore is 'punk'? higher bass/guitar/drum levels. Compared to mixing the traditional instruments levels into the foreground.

;)it is obvious Desperate Dan is connected with the departed members of the band. why are you hiding behind some stupid name.you obviously dont believe in what you are saying or else you would not be hiding.Whats wrong? sick the lp is better than the previous two? feel obligated to speak for someone else? have nothing else to do with your time? or perhaps jealousy. i bet it is jealousy. How pathetic!

WOZ I NOT CLEAR ENOUGH - THE ALBUM SUCKS A BIG ONE - END OF DISCUSSION. BUT IF YOU INSIST...... PISS POOR STREET PUNK WITH A BANJO, CRAPPY STRAINED VOCALS LIKE A WEAK BARNEY MURRAY AND FINALLY ALL THE SONGS ARE CRAP-O-LA, SHITE, BOLLOX, JUNK, JAM RAG MUSIC. IF YOU HAVENT BOUGHT THEN DON'T.

Firstly, I am not beano- I dont even know the guy. Secondly, I just gave an opinion on the new cd-I actually think it is much better than the old stuff-which had some good songwriting but really bad production.Thirdly, Irishness or non Irishness is irrelevant to me.I am not going to get to upset over a concept that was invented in the 19th century, I have other loyalties but I'm still proud to be Irish.Fourthly, whatever sort of bad blood is obviously in place has nothing to do with me and should not be sorted out or even discussed here.Finally, I still think You have dumb asssss judgement which does nothing but illustrate your ignorance and closed mind BEANO/eddieboy - YOU TOOK THE CAPS LOCK OFF BUT WE STILL KNOW ITS YOU.

I'm with RumRebellion. Let's see, there's this punk band that some people like and others dont. Hell, isnt that the case with every punk band. Like them or not, they're entitled to play what they want. Get over it and move on. The Guests seem to be engaged in a battle of wits, but they're all unarmed. Maybe the moderator should ban Guests.

I don't think I've contributed to this thread so far...so here's my 2p's worth. Opinions are just like arseholes...everybody's got one I know but the name-calling nonsense has really got out of hand on what generally is a very civil message board.
Personally, I love the new CD though it did take me a couple of listens before it really grew on me - then again No Time To Explain did as well where I neglected the CD for ages then couldn't stop listening to it!
I particularly like Doors of Hope, Poxy Pub, Glory O, Impaired Vision and A Holy Trinity.
I haven't got Blood or Whiskey's first CD so I'll be buying that one when Thursday comes.
I'll also be checking out BoW at Morecambe next month - am really looking forward to seeing the new stuff live.

This thread is becoming a web equivalent of a Mosh Pit!
I gave my opinion already, (I believe it may be where this started!) and I stand by it! But there has been a lot of talk about the mixing on both the first and most recent CDs.
I don't think the mix was so bad on the debut disc. All of the instruments are clear, and all the vocals are distinguishable. The majority opinion of the mixing of 'Cashed out on Culture' seems to be that it is superior. Fine. I'm glad everyone is happy with that, but, surprise. I disagree. Upon first listening to the disc, I kept wondering "What the hell is he saying?" On almost every song, vocals are too muddy to decipher, except the line "Knocking on the doors of hope," which is inexplicably in the very front of the mix. Whatever. My point is, the vocals on this "Punk-mixed" CD are useless without the liner notes, (But reading them while driving didn't seem like a good idea to me at the time.) I prefer the "Trad-mixed" quality of the first two discs. I am not saying this to slam the band and I don't say, "This sucked" or "So and so's head is up his arse" or any Special Olympic references no matter how funny that was, BUT with all this talk about the mix, this should be acknowledged.
And BarroomHeroine, The first Blood Or Whiskey CD is still one of my all time top five favorite CDs. You will not be disappointed with it.

You are right to bring it back to the music. However, I still disagree, the new lp is the superior! Long live the B.O.W. It would be great if there were more bands being true

Singloudsingproud, I said almost the same thing as you about three weeks ago... ...There are a few really good tracks, nothing that just sucks, but no giants. I, too, hope this CD grows on me after a few more spins... I'm glad it has grown on you, but I may still need more time. I played it again today, and , yeah, okay, no big thrill. Not bad, but it just doesn't have the stuff to affect me like the debut BoW. But few do. Maybe I'll shelf it for a spell...

Yeah its pretty hard to follow up the success on the first 2 bow cds. I personally agree with professor. I think this was their weakest cd so far. Don't get me wrong though i enjoy it and it has grown on me. It is a decent cd and is a cd i will listen to from time to time. I downloaded it *gasp and i'm kind of glad i did. the mixing didn't seem terrible but it was hard to understand the vocals but that could be the mp3s i downloaded. Overall i give it a 7.5 out of 10, this cd however is better than most shite on the radios today.

I listened to it a couple times today. I think that it is pretty good on the scale of irish punk (better than the peelers ;D ) but the first one was a fu.cking work of art and its really hard for any band to compete with that. hearing lyrics clearly isnt something I'm to worryed about. up until a couple years ago most of the music i listened to to was hard to hear if you didnt already kno the words. (filth, nausea, fleas and lice etc..) hell, I still listen to that shit.

Ja-heseus kriste this is too funny. I've been a member here for a long time but I never checked out this one before. I am so stupid to not check to see what all the postings were about. I just kept reading and reading. Someone mentioned it before and this is like the Macgowan/Popes/Danny thing where the same people write in as "guests" to make it look like they are a large force when in fact it is the same folks and some of their friends.
Hola beano! You and your friends should relax. I couldn't believe some of the stupid things that got brought up around here because some one gave a luke warm review. Are you that sensitive? Did you cry? You don't have my money. And with comments like that you obviously don't need it right? You must be rich like bono then to be so arrogant and not need my money. Therefore you will never get my money. I know you won't mind.
hah hah hah! GO TO HELL! Hurl the insults! My computer monitor will strike the blows for you. Your vicious taunts shall beat me into submission and I shall see how you are right and I am wrong.
p.s. Whoever said beano=beaner should be beaten with a rubber hose for being such a racist prick.
Goodnight and thank you beer man for providing me with smithwicks tonight after a grueling day in the saltmines, otherwise known as a jr high substitute teacher.
