Dropkick Murphys

Dropkick Murphys are an American punk rock band formed in Quincy, Massachusetts in 1996. The band was initially signed to independent punk record label Hellcat Records, releasing five albums for the label, and making a name for themselves locally through constant touring and yearly St. Patrick's Day week shows, held in and around Boston. The 2004 single "Tessie" became the band's first and one of their biggest charting singles to date. The band's final Hellcat release, 2005's The Warrior's Code, included "I'm Shipping Up to Boston", which was featured in the Academy Award-winning movie The Departed and went on to become one of the band's biggest singles, one of their best-known songs, and an anthem for Boston sports teams. more »

white riot... i wanna riot. white riot... a riot of my own. white riot... i wanna riot. white riot... a riot of my own. black people gotta lot a problems. but they don't mind throwing a brick. white people go to school. where they teach you how to be thick. and everybody's doing just what they're told to. and nobody wants to go to jail! all the power's in the hands of people rich enough to buy it. while we walk the street too chicken to even try it. everybody's doing just what they're told to. nobody wants to go to jail! are you taking over or are you taking orders? are you going backwards or are you going forwards?
