Works faster than caffeine
Rising Irish stars FONTAINES D.C. are all over the place after releasing
their sublime third LP Skinty Fia recently, that went straight to the top
of the UK Albums Chart.
To celebrate the victory they played a set of songs on American television
network CBS. I picked one of my early Fontaines favorites, Liberty Belle

Flaming Irish indie rockers FONTAINES D.C. released one of the best albums of 2019 with their smashing debut LP ‘DOGREL. The band decided to share a new video for one of the top tracks ‘LIBERTY BELLE‘ as so much has changed since they made the original clip. It’s full of live footage from their stormy gigs. I saw them playing twice last year and I can assure you they’re one of the best live bands around.

Smashing live performances…
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.
