    Yeah, look at the Irish Bands thread that's stickied at the top of the board. That'd be the most obvious place. ;)

    Ten Past Seven - phenominal!

    Nothing is Sacred - Melodic Death Metal - class.

    Wreck Of The Hesperus - Sewer Doom - frightening.

    Or check out that other thread... ;)

    Carnun Rising - Technical Black Metal, from Cork I think, excellent band.
    Mourning Beloveth - Doom Metal, also from cork, and also brilliant.
    Bad Boat - Stoner metal, from belfast, was getting somewhat inebriated with them last night over the new year, worth a listen.

    You serious? Their website is hosted on Myspace (and looks like someone puked on it), and the music player on the front page doesn't work. So how can someone possibly check them out? It doesn't even have an "upcoming dates" page! I think the OP was looking for professionals.

    Actually they do have www.eyesclosed.com , just the myspace page has songs (which work for me). I dont think a bands music should be judged on the merit of their webdesign skills.

    aye, judge them on looks.

    I'm not - but I can't get the songs to work, so I can't hear them.

    I think you need a flash or java plugin for the music player to work on Myspace. As for a website admittedly its not a great site, but hey.. One is being built at the mo.. ;) Thanks for the kind words to the guys that said good stuff.

    As for good Irish Bands; Primed, The Skies Collide, Residual Effect to name a few.
