Keeping things in the Irish-American family, Dropkick Murphys have given Conan O'Brien first dibs on their forthcoming eight album and his Team Coco website is streaming it in its entirety right now.

From the sounds of things, the Boston punks, who so memorably soundtracked some of The Departed's tenser moments, continue to mix Celtic trad with punk and hardcore to stirring effect.

The full album gets its release next Tuesday, January 8, but you can preview it for yourself right here.
