They play mostly Celtic
punk, the seven guys of Irish-American descent who populate the band Flogging
Molly from Los Angeles, California.
In their days of poverty they were sponsored
by an Irish pub in LA, called Molly Malone, and in return they played in the
pub on Mondays.
These performances were not always shining examples of tenderness, which elicited the comment from singer and guitarist Dave King in an interview with Kerrang! magazine that the band sometimes had the feeling that they flogged the place to death.
Hence the name Flogging Molly.
