Irish drill music

scopper

I'm curious whether this is on anyone's radar yet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7ao6LOUMOQ


I'm a fan of grime and lately drill music. Now, drill music in the UK is violent, with artists often serving long jail sentences and numerous members being killed, so it's almost an extension of the normal crime scene in London.



I'm not trying to make a moral judgment here but it does seem that nobody has quite twigged we now have UK style postcode gangs.



In many ways this extends the ye olde stuff, Tallaght v Blanch and so on, but not with proper production values and some slick outfits.



I realize this will inevitable bring up race, but I think the issue here is more to do with more complex factors, such as the basic fact of it being documents, whereas in the past our white youth from the same places were simply unseen.


I personally would like to see some of them do well, but obviously it seems we're missing what could be a big social problem if London drill is the model.

Gatling

Gob****es,
little cardboard gangsters hopefully it dies pretty quickly

The Crowman

That's not drill music, this is drill music

The K32s have been leaving their mark around Balbriggan for a few years now.

Not sure what drill is but they do this kind of stuff too.

Are they still using land lines in Athlone?

xzanti

Is that what that sh1te is called?

Pure and absolute dirt.




In my humble opinion.

Interesting, I had no idea this was a thing (I grew up in Tallaght, but I'm in the leafy environs of Donnybrook these days, no D4 gang, as you might imagine). I'm guessing they must live a little of the life if people know them beyond music.

"There's a load of black lads in balaclavas dancing outside costcutter!!"

It reminds me of Jungle.

And they all bounce like bunnies

Yep, it's for sure in the jungle-grime-uk-vibes lineage. The dances are always fun.

Pinch Flat

Think this is closest we have

Hopefully the lads with guns can be identified and receive appropriate sentences. It's a bit stupid to be putting yourself out there like that. I'd imagine the lads in actual gangs wouldn't go making videos about it. It's slightly scary though.

Ulysses Gaze

Now this is drill music

When I hear the drill I know it’s time to evacuate

Eircode finally took off!

Hard to take lads having a hip spasm in blue surgical gloves seriously
Especially if outside costcutters.
In Athlone.

jamesbere

Raheem Euro

They're no Scary Eire.

Subcomandante Marcos

Lol at the lads outside costcutter across form AIT.
Gob****es.

pgj2015

they are all using london slang and accents, that is their first mistake. you have to use your own accent and slang.


why do they call themselves gangs?

Another multi-cultural success story.

bodhrandude

I always thought Drum N' Bass was drill music, especially when Aphex Twin dropped it.
