Us Of Lesser Gods - Flogging Molly

Us Of Lesser Gods - Flogging Molly
3:19
Float, 2008
Written by Dave King

I'd say this is an almost archetypical Flogging Molly track: a blistering Celtic rock with traditional instruments blended with electric, backing Dave King's off-brand Shane MacGowan voice.  The lyrics convey anger, but are rather abstruse: something about how life is a hell on earth now because of, possibly, acid rain, coastal erosion, sex on TV?  But whatever King's shouting about, this post-punk with an Irish lilt makes it sound great!
