New striking strokes
8 August 2024
Irish indie stars FONTAINES D.C. are on their way to launch
their 4th album. Romance comes our way on August 23rd.
Conor Deegan (bassist) “We’ve always had this sense of idealism and romance.
Each album gets further away from observing that through the lens of Ireland, as
directly as Dogrel. The second album is about that detachment, and the third is
about Irishness dislocated in the diaspora. Now we look to where and what else
there is to be romantic about.”
Get ready for the album’s appetizer number 3, named HERE’S THE THING.
An a-typical poppy Fontaines DC jam. My ears are quite convinced after all
3 tasters that the Irishmen will surprise us big time with album number 4.
Grian Chatten: “It’s an anxious tune that twists and turns in
what it wants, back and forth between pain and numbness.”
