The Cranberries - No Need to Argue & To the Faithful Departed



The Cranberries were an Irish band formed in Limerick who incorporated Alternative Rock and Pop influences in their music. After the success of their first album, Everyone Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We?, they entered the charts once again with No Need to Argue, which included their most enduringly popular single, Zombie, a protest song about the I.R.A. bombing of Warrington in England.
The next album, To the Faithful Departed, suffered somewhat due to deaths in the band's friends and family (which the album is dedicated to, and the title is a reference to), although it still managed to chart relatively highly. The album was somewhat less loved by critics, but despite lacking tracks as strong as its predeccessor, it's definately worth a listen.
