At one time Stockton’s Wing were a household name in Ireland. In many homes they still are, but sadly the popularity of folk music has declined of late due to the widespread promotion of manufactured cac. Yet every now and then DJs in the know dig out a classic track and it gets some airplay. […]
Thin Lizzy – Sarah [Rock]
Here the Irish rock legends sing about Sarah. Rebel Voice wonders who Sarah is and how happy she might be to have a song written about her. It must be nice to be immortalized in such a way. Perhaps Rebel Voice will have to write a song about itself… awww… If you enjoyed this, please […]
Foo Fighters – Monkey Wrench [Rock]
This should liven up your day. For the males among you, Rebel Voice suggests wearing a kilt as you dance wildly around the kitchen listening to this song. It’s liberating, especially if you have no underwear on. And girls, you may find it equally liberating just watching your menfolk cavort on top of the kitchen […]
AC/DC – Back In Black [Rock]
Put simply, AC/DC are one of the biggest and best rock bands of all time. Rebel Voice wonders when the term Heavy Metal went out of fashion, as these Aussies rockers once held the title, Kings of Metal.
The Pogues – Streams Of Whiskey
The Pogues are at it again in this song. They are the connoisseurs of drunken commentary. Rebel Voice, being an Irish-based site, could not of course condone such drunken revelry… ahem… but stands by the right of others to engage in this behaviour so long as they don’t fall on you. This is but one […]
Foo Fighters – Run [Rock]
A great track from a great rock band who continue to impress.
SOAK- Sea Creatures – Derry Songstress
Here’s a gentle melody to ease you through your day. This young songstress from the North of Ireland is making waves across the island of late. She is exceptionally individual in her approach to her craft and a welcome change to the manufactured guff that is being peddled continuously within the industry. Enjoy! If you […]
The Pogues – Star Of The County Down [Irish Folk Rock]
Here is The Pogues’ version of the popular and lively Ulster ballad. Needless to say, it’s a rollicking take on a classic tune from a land full of the same. Go easy on the whiskey when listening to this, though, as Rebel Voice does not want you to waken up in a strange bed with […]
AC/DC – Hells Bells [Rock]
Here is a storming track from one of the greatest rock bands of all time. AC/DC have been around for a very long time but are still as relevant to music today as they were in the seventies. Rebel Voice advises that you play this track so loudly that the postman is intimidated from coming […]
Thin Lizzy – Don’t Believe A Word [Rock]
Here’s a classic from the Dublin rock band with an impressive back-catalogue. This song can be heard regularly on radio across the Celtic Isles and we’re much the better for it. If you enjoyed this, please share
Oasis – Songbird (Brit rock)
Here are the Manchester lads sounding very like the Beatles who hail from that city that lads from Manchester won’t name. It’s kinda like the Voldemort of cities for Mancunians. Both are great though. If you enjoyed this, please share
The Wolfe Tones – Broad Black Brimmer – Irish Rebel Song
This rousing ballad is a staple in the world of Irish Republican music. It can be heard sung at some soccer matches also. For those who don’t know, a broad black brimmer is a hat worn by the IRA during the Tan War (1919 – 1921). If you enjoyed this, please share
