A Celtic song that parodies its own genre

You've heard of the subgenres metalcore, or deathcore? A song about travelling to Britain, drinking way too much, & needing to go home to get away from it all - that is what might be called "celticcore".

Never let it be said that Celtic musicians have no sense of humour.

The video itself is merely a clipmix of camcorder shots of the band playing at festivals & bars, interspersed with clips of their travels. It's nothing particularly interesting, which is a shame, because this song deserves much more.

The music genre features stories showcasing musical performances, music-related documentaries and recordings of live concerts and music festivals.
