| TernaryBit (O-town) | Posted: Mar 28, 2009 - 10:01 As an Irish/Scottish/Welsh/English/American who grew up in the nineties, I LOVE this. It makes me want to dance a jig in the middle of my computer repair shop. |

As it happens, now that I've bought a couple of ACSS albums, I now know that they're mostly Irish, not least because all the Gaelic lyrics are in Irish rather than Scots Gaelic, so leprechauns it is. ACSS has to be one of the most successful celtic + 'world music' fusions I've come across, and there are an absolute sack load these days in Celtic music. Highly recommend. 8 -> 9 |

| fredriley (Nottingham, UK) | Posted: Dec 11, 2007 - 10:15 ACSS are another fine example of the renaissance of modern Scottish music over the last couple of decades, following a trail blazed by Runrig and Capercaillie, combining traditional and modern Scottish, and a wide range of international, rhythms and sounds in very, very interesting and stimulating ways. Another fine example of a weird sound fusion that shouldn't work, but does, is Salsa Celtica. Anyway, 7 from the Nottingham jury, bound to rise with further listenings. With a few drams of fine malt inside me this would be an automatic 9 :*) |

| arserocket (Way down South West Scotland near boredom) | Posted: Oct 09, 2007 - 14:18 Saw them this August at Deerlijk, Belgium - they were the best band I've seen in years - if you get the chance to see them take it. |
| TerryS (The other SW) | Posted: Aug 07, 2007 - 18:10 Yup, ya gots to be there. Preferably standing about 50 feet front dead centre when they are in full flood     |
| StellarSwarm (Indianapolis, IN) | Posted: Apr 26, 2006 - 16:38 This kind of music is great when you're at Irish Fest, completely drunk, and dancing to your hearts content with a bunch of people who are doing the same. But when you're sitting in front of a computer, completely sober, and haven't been outside in 9+ hours...there's just something lost in the translation. Definitely not something I'd listen to on a regular basis. (But I sure can't wait for Irish Fest!!!) |
| curufinwe (San Francisco, CA) | Posted: Apr 26, 2006 - 16:32 Strangely compelling. I like it. Anyone else seeing the "Stonehenge" scene from This is Spinal Tap? |
| jmwspg (South Carolina) | Posted: Mar 28, 2006 - 10:43 Great jumpin druids! |
| redeyespy (Sunny, FL) | Posted: Mar 13, 2006 - 16:48 A cross pollination, with mixed results. Kinda alarming. |

| plutodazed (Out there on Pluto...) | Posted: Nov 16, 2005 - 18:11 The song is good but not one I'll listen to by choice. Hence a near-miss 7 rating. |

Try Shooglenifty. Don't know if I've heard them on RP. I first heard them on Brand X internet radio. |

I have Afro Celts in my iPod and groove to them when I ski. Imagine hurtling down a black run on Breckenridge's Peak Ten with this booming in your ears. Pure heaven. |

Is this related to AfroCelts? IIRC I /do/ like "Afro Celt Sound System" tunes op RP, and actually /don't like/ AfroCelts same group--they just changed the name. :-) |
