Last May Turn Up The Volume saw one of the most striking and significant young
bands around playing a feisty gig in Brussels (review here.) FONTAINES D.C. is
a ferocious 5-headed post-punk generator out of Ireland, with raging frontman
Grian Chatten spitting and sneering in a frenzied Mark E. Smith way while the
band thunders ominously. So far the group released three biting singles. One
of them LIBERTY BELLE was performed, a couple of months ago, as part of a
live set for KEXP Radio in Seattle. A fab radio station promoting terrific alt
and indie artists from around the globe for years now.
Experience the stirring vitality and killer vibrancy
of up-and-coming gunslingers Fontaines D.C. here…

‘Creep’ by RADIOHEAD
Glastonbury Festival 2017
When you were here before
Couldn’t look you in the eye
You’re just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
And I wish I was special
You’re so fuckin’ special
But I’m a creep, I’m a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?
I don’t belong here.
I don’t care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice
When I’m not around
You’re so fuckin’ special
I wish I was special
But I’m a creep, I’m a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?
I don’t belong here.
