DROPKICK MURPHYS have announced they’ll release a 12” vinyl split LP with recent tourmates HAYWIRE titled New England Forever. The Boston-based bands, who got to know each other while touring Europe together last fall, each recorded three original songs as well as a cover version of one of each other’s songs for the 8-song LP. Haywire recorded Dropkick Murphys’ “The Boys Are Back” and Dropkick Murphys recorded Haywire’s “Always By My Side.”
New England Forever will be available exclusively at shows during DROPKICK MURPHYS’ February 9 – March 17 For The People…In The Pit St. Patrick’s Day Tour with THE AGGROLITES and HAYWIRE supporting on most dates. The U.S. trek culminates March 13, 14, 15 and 17 in Boston with Dropkick Murphys’ annual run of hometown dates during St. Patrick’s Day week, which brings together DKM fans from around the globe.
Dropkick Murphys’ “Citizen I.C.E.” is a reimagined version of their 2005 song “Citizen C.I.A.,” recorded in late 2025. DKM recently previewed the song on social media, with a video drawing attention to the tragic killing of Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis.
