"The Tosspints brought out the Celtic Punk in mid-Michigan—a nice drop-kick in the pants to the area, bringing a new vibe and party to the scene." -Scott Baker, The Review
"The band opened this performance with a sustained chord and a shout —a cymbal crashed, and they were off!, barreling into their 45-minute set with all the kinetic energy Newton's laws of motion allow for a three-piece Celtic punk rock band. From there, the momentum only amplified." -Jeremy Benson, 360Mainstreet.com
"It’s a major commitment like Dickey Betts on a 3 month jag to their unique musical vision, carving out an identity that doesn’t automatically follow the steps of the old wave Celtic Punk traditionalists like the Pogues, DropKick Murphy or Flogging Molly......This is music for the ages whether it is Hail-up-good-friend-and-we-shall-die-together drinking songs or political barn burners that deal with injustice and subjugation." -Bo White, The Review

Entertaining/rowdy collection of Celtic Punk/Rock music
author: Sean B. and the RadioIndy.com Reviewer Team
The Tosspints, a talented trio of musicians, and their latest released album, "11 Empty Bottles," is a collection of raucous and rambunctious Celtic Punk/Folk songs that are aimed at infusing their listeners with energy and telling a couple dark and jaded stories along the way. The fast paced song,"1 Beer, 1 Shot, 1 Memory" offers up some free spirited lyrics swirling around strong and solid drum beats. The Punk sounding song, "Young Girl, Bad Idea" is energetic with crisp vocals projecting attitude while the drums deliver a fury of riffs and beats. "My Own Sinking Ship" is a song that uses entertaining and quick paced lyrics along with the band harmonizing with whimsical style over a duple beat. This album is a great collection of entertaining and rowdy songs and if you are a fan of Flogging Molly or Gogol Bordello then you will really enjoy the Tosspints latest CD, "11 Empty Bottles."
