The Tossers - Purgatory

Review by Anne Gliddon

Purgatory, the latest album by Tossers, is a captivating musical experience that takes listeners on a journey through the band's signature blend of Celtic punk and folk rock. The album features 11 tracks that showcase the band's musical prowess and storytelling abilities.

Right from the opening track, "The Horses," Tossers set the tone for the album with a rousing, foot-stomping melody that's impossible to resist. The band's use of traditional instruments like the fiddle, mandolin, and accordion, combined with punk rock energy, creates a unique sound that's both nostalgic and fresh.

The album's title track, "Purgatory," is a standout with its haunting melody and introspective lyrics. The song's slow build-up and explosive chorus make it a memorable track that stays with you long after it's over.

Other notable tracks on the album include "Erin Go Bragh," a tribute to the band's Irish heritage, and "The Break of Dawn," a song that showcases the band's ability to craft a beautiful ballad.
