Why have I only found about these lads now and what happened to them? I just got the album Heartworm and it's been on repeat for the last week. Definitely the most under rated Irish band. We Don't need nobody else http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=sLT5s9eoBgo

Definitely a classic album and best of 1995 where it had stiff competition. My 15 year old son is now a fan and has got a couple of friends into it too. It resonates…

Whipping Boy have made it onto the back of the 2022 Bohemians jersey. Paul Page is a fan.
The back neck of the shirt features the words 'we don't need nobody else' by the Dublin band Whipping Boy, from the track of the same title, released on Heartworm in 1995. Club member and Whipping Boy guitarist Paul Page commented: “We wrote this, a song of defiance, when we had nothing, and meant nothing to nobody. Now, the club I have supported since I was a boy, will take to the field next season with this emblazoned on their jersey. Proud beyond words.”
