The prolific Boston punkers dip into the archives yet again with a collection of b-sides, cover songs and compilation tracks from the second half of their career. It's appropriate that Shane McGowan appears on "Wild River", since the Dropkick Murphys' style of Celtic punk is influenced by the Pogues.
