  • LONDON CELTIC PUNKS PRESENTS THE BEST OF 2022!

    It’s that time of year again for the London Celtic Punks annual Best Of list. Has it really been a year since The Peelers waltzed (or should that be jigged) off with album of the year? It’s been possibly the best year for Celtic-Punk since we started doing this site and this was easily the…

  • ALBUM REVIEW: BODH’AKTAN- ‘Ride Out The Storm’ (2018)
