Pro Reviews: My Pappy Was a Pistol

EXPERT RATING:

From AMG Reviews

Filthy Thieving Bastards are something of a sideproject supergroup. Consisting of members of the Swingin' Utters, Camper Van Beethoven and Me First and the Gimme Gimmes, Filthy Thieving Bastards boast one of the most wildly eclectic sounds in all of postpunk rock'n'roll. On this, their second fulllength album, they careen crazily from Poguesflavored rock'n'reel (Spider Stacy makes a guest appearance on tin whistle and vocals) to queasy honkytonk country ("Crutches and Blow", "Back to the Old") and from a weird sort of ersatz Latin pop ("Sealed Confessions") to beerswilling shoutalongs ("Singapore Sling"). Singer Darius Koski wears his Shane MacGowan influence a little bit too openly on his sleeve, but at their best, Filthy Thieving Bastards do an admirable job of updating the Pogues' gleeful Celtic chaos for the 21st century, and by adding their own cheerfully beery mix of punk, country and Latin rebop to the mix they do ultimately succeed at making the resulting sound their own. Recommended.
