When Dropkick Murphys release a new track, it's never just for the sake of making noise. With Citizen I.C.E., the Boston band hits where it hurts, transforming an old track into a political firebrand. Between rage and urgency, the single denounces institutional violence in the United States and reminds us that the band has never stopped combining music and activism.

There are nights when a concert feels less like a tour date and more like a closing ritual. This was one of those nights. For their final show, the Dropkick Murphys chose Paris—or rather, Paris chose them, as the place to finish what they started. Behind the stage, a gigantic screen displayed high-definition visuals and details, transforming each song into a moving tableau.
