[4] Like your favorite hole-in-the-wall restaurant, Dropkick Murphys serve up something warm, comforting and familiar with The Warrior's Code: blaring bagpipes, joyous stadium-punk sing-a-longs and, this time out, a bit of glowing o'er their hometown heroes, the Boston Red Sox. Revamped Irish jigs like "Captain Kelly's Kitchen" essentially serve as sonic Guinness, and while the band's political stabs-"The Last Letter Home" is a mournful Iraq-inspired number, while "Citizen CIA" is a bit whinier-aren't quite as confident, you get the feeling the Murphys could put out thoroughly enjoyable albums like this for decades. Why bother fixing it? The sound ain't broke, and neither is The Warrior's Code.(HELLCAT) Rob Harvilla
