Horslips - Aliens (CD)

Facts Digitally remastered and expanded edition of this 1977 album from the Irish rockers including bonus live tracks. Founded in Dublin during 1970 as a quintet playing a brand of Folk-based Rock music whose only parallel could be found in the early work of Fairport Convention. Horslips drew on their distinctly Irish roots, and were capable of playing straight Folk material when the moment called for it, but weren't afraid to turn up loud and hard, in the best Art-Rock style on the right songs. Aliens is a seminal album in the band's history. Talking Elephant. 2010.
