Rock based rooty music. Personally I think they have more going for them than the Pogues - much stronger sound, more interesting stuff going on in the music. Also they are yet more proof that accordians can rock. Some of the lyrics include some pretty `strong' French, too. I didn't see them live tho. Hope you'll tell us with what you thought of it, Kevin.
