Review by Sam Huang

Dropkick Murphys’ Goin’ Out in Style: A Rousing Ride Through Folk, Rock, and Raw Emotion The Dropkick Murphys have always been a band that wears its heart on its sleeve, blending punk rock grit with Celtic folk soul. Their album Goin’ Out in Style is no exception. Released under their own label (because who needs the suits when you’ve got this much swagger?), the record dives headfirst into themes of resilience, rebellion, and good old-fashioned storytelling. It’s a mix of Folk, World, Country, and Rock that feels like a rowdy pub sing-along one moment and a quiet reflection on life’s struggles the next. Two tracks that really stuck with me are “Deeds Not Words” and “Memorial Day.” “Deeds Not Words” kicks things off with an anthemic punch. The song’s driving rhythm and defiant lyrics hit hard—it’s less about preaching and more about reminding you to put your money where your mouth is. There’s something raw about how it refuses to sugarcoat anything, yet still manages to feel uplifting. It’s the kind of track that makes you want to roll up your sleeves and get to work, whatever that might mean for you. Then there’s “Memorial Day,” which takes a sharp turn into introspection. This one sneaks up on you. At first, it feels like just another acoustic-heavy tune, but as the layers unfold, it becomes clear this isn’t background music—it demands your attention. The vocals carry a weight that feels deeply personal, almost like the band is sharing a secret they’ve carried for years. By the end, you’re left sitting there, replaying lines in your head long after the last chord fades. Other standouts include “Sunday Hardcore Matinee,” which channels chaotic energy perfect for mosh pits or just screaming along in your car, and “The Irish Rover,” a rollicking cover that proves the band knows how to honor tradition without losing their edge. Even quieter moments like “Climbing a Chair to Bed” bring depth, showing that these guys can do tender almost as well as they do loud. What strikes me most about Goin’ Out in Style is how unapologetically human it feels. Sure, the production is tight, but it never loses that lived-in quality that makes Dropkick Murphys who they are. You don’t listen to this album—you experience it. And honestly? That’s what keeps fans coming back year after year. Here’s the kicker: despite all the bravado and fist-pumping choruses, the album ends on a surprisingly somber note with “The Hardest Mile.” It’s not the triumphant send-off you’d expect, but maybe that’s the point. Life doesn’t tie everything up neatly, and neither does this record. In a way, it leaves you thinking—not bad for a bunch of Boston punks playing folk tunes.
