About the album Pogue Mahone

Pogue Mahone is the seventh and final studio album by the Anglo-Irish punk and folk band The Pogues. It was released in February 1996 and marked the end of their career. It was the second album without the original singer Shane MacGowan, who had left in 1991. The main vocals were handled by Spider Stacy. The producer of the album was Steve Brown.

The album's title is an Anglicized variation of the Irish Gaelic phrase póg mo thóin, which literally means "kiss my arse" and is the phrase from which the band's name originally derived. The album includes 13 tracks, with the most well-known being How Come, Bright Lights, and the ballad Love You 'Till the End. Among them is also a cover of Bob Dylan's song When The Ship Comes In from 1964.

Pogue Mahone did not achieve the anticipated commercial or critical success. Many critics felt that the absence of MacGowan had stripped the band of its "identity" and intensity. After its release and the departure of founding member Jem Finer in 1996, the remaining members decided to disband the group.
