Ceàrr 
Studio album by Mill a h-Uile Rud Released 2004 Genre Gaelic Punk Label Clàran Droch-Shùil Mill a h-Uile Rud chronology Ceàrr Ceòl Gàidhlig mar Sgian nad Amhaich Ceàrr was the first album by the Celtic Rock band Mill a h-Uile Rud. Ceàrr was the first CD of all-new Gaelic songs ever released[1] and was also the first CD produced with exclusively Gaelic liner notes. Runrig's album Play Gaelic was the first album of all-Gaelic music in a modern, rock and roll style, but along with new compositions, featured rock re-workings of several traditional songs, and Oi Polloi's EP, Carson?, was the first vinyl album of all-new rock compositions in Gaelic. Ceàrr is also notable for its sexual themes and strong obscenity; a rarity in the ultra-conservative modern Gaelic music scene.[2][3] The name of the album means wrong in Gaelic, and the band chose this name as a statement of their belief that you should use Gaelic, even if you don't feel entirely confident in the language.[4]
