The Gobshites The Gobshites are an American Celtic punk band from Boston, Massachusetts. Formed in 2002 by Peter Walsh, their music has been compared with the Pogues and Black 47, but with a twist: as well as taking Irish songs and punking them up, they take classic punk songs and 'Irish' them up; for example, in their hands The Ramones's "Long Way Back to Germany" becomes "Long Way Back to Ireland" with a fiddle jig incorporated.
