Listen "TPOE 289: The Scratch"
Episode Synopsis
The Scratch, a four-piece from Dublin born from a shared love of metal and trad music, released their second studio album Mind Yourself on November 3. Dock, Lango and Jordo talk through the nine songs track by track today, talking along the way about where they fit in the trad scene, the themes across the album, including alcoholism and begrudgery, and what it was like working with co-producer James Vincent McMorrow. They also talk about covering the Pogues' 'Sally MacLennane' for Ireland 100: An Old Song Re-sung, playing 'Dirty Bastard' on the Late Late Show, and lots more.
