CELTIC PUNK | THE MAHONES
ALT-COUNTRY | MAD COW TIPPERS
Dublin-born, Canada-based Finny McConnell is considered by many as one of the main instigators in getting this whole Irish Punk drinking party started, years before bands like Flogging Molly and Dropkick Murphys kicked the scene wide open. The Mahones is a tight outfit with more of a lean on the Irish music tradition and less on the locomotive and volume that others in the genre use. But, it still manages to kick out the whiskey-fueled jams with speed and a contagious exuberance.
With a most excellent accelerated 2/4 stomp and giggle this miscreant trio from Ithaca — with Rochester’s Reverend Sam on bass — play songs steeped in irony. Though hilarious, titles like “I’m The Bulge in Satan’s Pants” don’t distract from the music’s redneck thrash, twang, and thrills. Mad Cow Tippers borrows from the likes of The Cramps and The Reverend Horton Heat to add to the honkin,’ psychobilly splendor.
The Mahones perform Tuesday, November 26, 9 p.m., at Abilene, 153 Liberty Pole Way, $15-$20, abilenebarandlounge.com. — BY FRANK DE BLASE
