    I've been to a lot of metal gigs in the last year or two and i would have to say that the best irish band i've heard is eyes closed. They really kick ass. I've heard them on the metal show on Phantom too and all their songs are great.
    superskin and corrupted are good too. Mourning beloved sound good as well although i've never seen them live.

    Moses, look at the names. It's like they all bookmark the same page in the same thesaurus.

    Although nothing comes close to a Galway band I saw advertised last time I was in the Kebab House: "Dogsh!t Sandwich".

    Spinal Tap could not have done better.

    I hear that John from Diptheria has joined Waylander - going on tour of Ireland, UK and germany too in the not too distant! Bastid :)

    One Man Down are class...
    *tumbleweed*

    But seriously folks, Diptheria are insane, Diatribe are really excellent, Waylander are also really excellent.

    What about X-Constant (despite their mupety behaviour of spamming boards for their recent EP Launch)?

    Also - like Robbo said: Therapy? They rule.

    What about Slave Zero? They're pretty fucking deadly. I really like corrupted too, i got Feed on The Weak there a few weeks ago, the blasts in "In the Garden" fucking 0wn.

    Also, nobody mentioned Atomic Drop. They're pretty good.
