Dear Penguin Egg, you say you are a fan of the Pogues - therefore all they do is great by you. Very pop! No band or musician or composer should be worshipped for themselves. Listen to the music,songs - some you will like some you will not. Enjoy those you like - miss out those you don't - but hatch into a real penguin and realise that no band/person can continously be perfect. Many thousands of people find great enjoyment in the music of the Dubliners, perhaps the fault is in you - go back to your world of pop music, where you will be told what you should enjoy, until you learn discernment.
