JamesL me old sonnerjee just sat and listened to your entire playlist. Killer band mate, you Irish buggers keep delivering the goods don't you.
Pickups-wise my philosophy is stick to something like normal windings. A hand-wound fastidiously made pup like a BKP delivers a much better tonal spectrum than a machine wound stocker and allows you to tweak around all day. Between pedals, boosters and preamp settings you'll find anything you want. So Mules muchacho, anyone who can't get a good tone out of a Mule is a c*nt. Once again though inspiring band, even if you used Warpigs you'd be happy.
