Top o’ the mornin’ to ya! This week we turn several shades of green as we celebrate the emerald isle and St. Patrick’s Day! We here in the good ol’ US of A have completely bastardized this whole affair into a day of wearing ridiculous amounts of green, pretending to be of Irish descent, and getting extremely drunk while listening to U2, those single songs by The Cranberries and Thin Lizzy that everyone knows, and any host of Celtic-based punk rock (Dropkick Murphys, Flogging Molly, etc…). Not on this episode!!! We are going to go deeper into true Irish rock n’ punk n’ metal that should be added to your St. Paddy’s Day playlist and celebrated all year round!

What’s this InObscuria thing? We’re a podcast that exhumes obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal and puts them in one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. This week we listen to some artist that throw a little traditional Irish into their mix and others that just simply rock! Here’s to a long life and a merry one. A quick death and an easy one. A pretty girl and an honest one. A cold pint and another one!

1. Young Dubliners – “Follow Me Up To Carlow” from Breathe (1995)
2. ONOFF – “Taximan” from Don’t Take Our Word For It (2012)
3. The Boomtown Rats – “Mary Of The 4th Form” from Best Of Boomtown Rats (1985) 
4. Whipping Boy – “Valentine 69” from Submarine (1992)
