HORSLIPS - The Táin (Reissue) - LP - Gatefold Red Vinyl [MAR 20]
LP - Limited Edition Solid Red Coloured Vinyl housed in a Gatefold Sleeve.
A striking SOLID RED colour pressing of the 2026 RTÉ Choice Music Prize “Classic Irish Album”.
Consistently hailed as one of the greatest Irish albums of all time, The Táin's influence on the subsequent 5 decades of music coming from Ireland is immeasurable. Featuring Horslips' most successful and now legendary track Dearg Doom, this album has informed the careers of everyone from Thin Lizzy to U2 to poet Seamus Heaney.
Bruce Eder from AllMusic says "The most ambitious and successful of their early albums, Horslips' most progressive creation, and maybe the most successful rock concept album ever done, The Táin is rock put into the service of epic storytelling (or is it the other way around?)."
