Life Is Good is the sixth studio album by the Irish-American Celtic punk band Flogging Molly, released on June 2, 2017.[4] Their first studio album in six years (following 2011's Speed of Darkness), it is also their first album to feature drummer Mike Alonso, and their last album with banjo player Bob Schmidt.
Life is Good received a 61 out of 100 score on Metacritic, indicating "generally favorable reviews". In their review, Allmusic commented that "The Hand of John L. Sullivan" is a blazing barn burner in the band's signature tradition, and "Crushed [Hostile Nations]" is a slow-building wartime tale with a massive chorus that harkens back to King's heavy metal past." Classic Rock Magazine also gave the album a mostly positive review and called "The Hand of John L. Sullivan" a highlight.
