We Want Blood
Billed as "a protest song for the times we live in", 'We Want Blood' couldn't have been released during a more appropriate week - with any luck, this lairy tune will soundtrack a triumphant overthrow of Leinster house, complete with flaming torches, rusty pitchforks and moonwalking cyborgs. As well as summing up the sentiments of the nation in under four minutes ('Hey Mr. Politician, it's time to depart'), 'We Want Blood' also boasts one of the best first lines of a song in recent memory; Stef kicks it all off by groaning; 'Well, I'm drunk as a parish priest on the lies that you told us.' Fucking perfect.
