Critic's Review
Mike DaRonco, All Music Guide
Following in the tradition of Flogging Molly comes another pack of storytelling, hard-drinking, gruff Irish folk. But without pushing the punk-rock attitude aside, Lovely Day for a Hogshead Whisky's featured themes of slamming pints and starting fights run rampant, as hints of The Swingin' Utters and Dropkick Murphys are present. And with the additional vocal stylings of Shane MacGowan, an apparent inspiration of the Pouges contributes to the Dolomites' bash of beer-swilling celebration.
