Anybody know any interesting irish groups?

#1

see title. beyond microdisney et al or some recent hip-hop it’s difficult (for me at least) to find good music from ireland. this might be because the country is fucked in many unenumerable ways. anyone know any good music from ireland? at all at all?

if you’re into house/techno check out Tr One and the label Jheri Tracks.

#4

https://majorproblems.bandcamp.com/ a lot of stuff here is very good

#5

Autumns.

Not a group, just one (very tall) chap. Maybe a bit darker than you are looking for but strongly recommended.

#6

Morgan Buckley and the Wah Wah Wino crew, it’s a wormhole of aliases and collabs, but a fruitful search

#7

My Bloody Valentine https://www.mybloodyvalentine.org/

#8

Compulsion were a great band. Garrett ‘Jackknife’ Lee was the guitarist.

#9

Bon Voyage is a duo featuring brilliant Irish DJ Arveen and a cool MC from New York

#10

Are you Irish yourself?

#11

That M Buckley record is brilliant

#12

Massive cosign to Jheri, Major Problems and the Winos. Glacial looks set for a resurgence. Here are some weirder/folkier things. There’s a huge amount of interesting stuff across a range of genres happening right now.

#13

Dubliners are absolute fire

#14

Fort Evil Fruit is one of the best tape labels on Bandcamp, and is Irish. Releases are not exclusively Irish, but this is one of my favourites and is by “Dublin-born viola player” Ailbhe Nic Oireachtaigh.
