‘Red Roses For Me’ kicks the album off with a blast of pure pop energy. Self-described as Rock: Pop-Rock with lots of words, The Pogues comes out swinging on perhaps his best album to date. It’s a brave and brilliant refocusing of The Pogues energies, virtually a rebirth. The Pogues “Red Roses For Me” is an amazing album.
The Battle Of Brisbane as a highlight of Red Roses For Me contains a ton of excellent melodies. The Auld Triangle is sonically very melodic with nice haunting verses. I find myself hearing bits of Waxies Dargle here and there throughout my waking hours. Boys From The County Hell one is one of the better boring ones. Sea Shanty is astounding. Still going through Red Roses For Me and coming to appreciate Dark Streets Of London more and more with every listen. Music of Streams Of Whiskey is gentle, never overbearing. Poor Paddy is a song you cannot help but think about at odd moments in your day. Dingle Regatta on Red Roses For Me is solid and easy to listen to. This track is nearly perfect if not perfect. Down In The Ground Where The Dead Men Go is a very catchy tune. Kitty is worth the money.
