11 Short Stories of Pain & Glory is the ninth studio album by Dropkick Murphys. Released in 2017, it was their first studio release in 4 years and debuted at #8 on the Billboard 200, marking their second highest debut (after Going Out in Style.) The album was influenced by the bands work with The Claddagh Fund; a charity they established in 2009 to help support addiction recovery as well as childrens and veterans organizations. The track 4-15-13 pays homage to the victims of the Boston Marathon bombing, most of whom the band grew to know personally in the aftermath. Standard black vinyl.
