Fontaines DC

I’m undecided On them.

Heard their new album is meant to be good.

But I intend to give it a good airing this weekend .


What do you think ?

All hype or is there some substance to them ?
 
I really enjoyed their first album. I thought it was one of the best records of last year.

I'll stick on the new one this evening over the weekend.
 
Loved most of the first album, and had tickets to see them in Marquee. Got the new album, just have not had a chance for a full run through yet.

A lot of people turned off by the Dublin accent, but I think it actually adds to their overall sound.

Would rate, The Murder Capital, higher up though. Can't wait to see them live.
 
Can't stand them. Heard their song on the radio and it put me in a bad mood for ages. It was some repetitive shit. Not sure what they're trying to prove.
 
I really like the post-punk sound they have, but the fake accent ruins it. Stop trying to sound rough when you obviously went to private school.

This article really surprised me, I thought The Coronas were a joke band but it turns out that's actually what's supposed to happen when they start playing.

New Fontaines album is actually great, just waiting for them to get a bit less self-conscious and bit more self-aware.
