British music web-magazine-site NME caught up with young Irish stars
FONTAINES D.C. who released their 3rd LP SKINTY FIA, a bold piece of
work, lyracilly and musically (it grows on you with every spin) for a big
interview.
It’s clear for NME. The Dubliners are the best band in the world.
Some quotes from the Q & A
“It’s difficult to stay in touch with Irish culture while you’re not there.
You grapple with guilt”
“People are looking to me for answers. What the fuck do I know?”
“Slowthai has an incendiary quality. His charisma reminds me of Mick Jagger”
“There are some bands who are trying to go head-to-head with world-renowned philosophers. They’re stepping up to a plate that isn’t for them. Just because you’ve written a couple of good albums, doesn’t mean you can skip a whole PhD. That, to me, is completely delusional, and I have no interest in doing that.”
Full interview right here.
