Straight out of Lincoln, Nebraska… The Killigans have consistently put out releases that have turned heads, and made all of us in the Folk-Punk community keep asking for more. I’ve been going to shows of the Killigans since early 2006 when they released “Brown Bottle Hymnal” , next
in 2007 “One Step Ahead of Hell”, in 2008 they released a live album “Live at The Zoo Bar”, and now a new release “Honor” is here. Every studio release The Killigans have put out since they began as a band in 2004 have been just simply the best independent releases I’ve ever heard in Folk Punk… both musically and lyrically…. it just amazes me that they are not signed and haven’t blown up yet not only nationally but internationally.
“Honor” captures The Killigans at the top of their game… from the smokin’ first track ‘Martyrs of the Lower Middle Class’ to the anthem ‘New Revolution’, or even the closing last call for kick ass music track ‘Liquor Store’. The best way to describe The Killigans sound would be if you took Filthy Thieving Bastards, Bad Religion, and The Street Dogs in a blender… toss in a fifth of whiskey and blend!!!
I recommend these guys to everyone whom asks me who I like the best in this style of music… I recommend you buy all their albums.. you won’t be disappointed.
