I Like This: The Mahones (Again)

The Mahones, Canada’s more sober version of the Pogues (they also have much, much better smiles), have finally finished their double concept album.

Yes, a concept album. Name another band in the spheres in which the Mahones fly to do anything close to that.  Here’s a taste of The Hunger and the Fight which is due on the 17th.
