7" Cover

Mob Mentality is a split album by Dropkick Murphys and The Business. Originally, the bands put out a split 7" single with the name Mob Mentality. This single consisted of three songs, two which were covers of the other band's songs, and the third was an original song performed by both bands together. A year later, they released a full-length album with the three previous tracks and nine more. Of the twelve tracks, each band does four covers (two of which were covers of the other band's songs) and one reworking of a song they originally recorded, and the other two tracks are an original song, Mob Mentality itself, by both bands together and a reworking of that song. "McBusiness" was the name used for the bands for that particular song.
