sionnach commented on the word horslips
A Celtic rock band of the 1970's. Probably their most successful single release was the song dearg doom (red doom), which reached number 1 on the German charts. The name is a convoluted malapropism deriving from the four horsemen of the apocalypse.

I have one of their albums. Despite the odd name, it's pretty decent music. :-P
