Our Take

Fontaines D.C. burst back onto the scene with their sophomore album, A Hero's Death, and boy oh boy, do they deliver. This Dublin quintet is known for their raw, energetic sound, and this album is no exception.

From the get-go, you're hit with a wall of sound that grabs you by the ears and doesn't let go. The opening track, "I Don't Belong," sets the tone for the rest of the album with its urgent guitars and frontman Grian Chatten's passionate vocals. It's a powerful start to a record that doesn't let up for a second.

Tracks like "Televised Mind" and "A Lucid Dream" showcase the band's ability to create infectious melodies while still maintaining their punk edge. It's a delicate balance that Fontaines D.C. pull off effortlessly.

But it's not all high-energy anthems on A Hero's Death. The band also shows their softer side on tracks like "Sunny" and "Oh Such a Spring," proving that they have the range to keep listeners on their toes.

Overall, Fontaines D.C. have created an album that is both captivating and thought-provoking. A Hero's Death is a bold statement from a band that is unafraid to take risks and push boundaries. Don't sleep on this one, it's a must-listen for any music lover.

About the artist

Fontaines D.C.

FONTAINES D.C. burst onto the music scene like a breath of fresh air, with their raw, energetic punk sound and no-nonsense attitude. Hailing from Dublin, these lads have quickly become one of the most exciting bands to come out of Ireland in recent years. Their debut album, "Dogrel," is a blistering mix of poetry and punk, with frontman Grian Chatten's distinctive accent adding a unique edge to their sound. Tracks like "Boys in the Better Land" and "Big" are anthems in the making, with their driving guitars and punchy lyrics guaranteed to get the crowd going at any live show. But it's not just their music that sets FONTAINES D.C. apart - it's their attitude. These boys aren't afraid to speak their minds or call out any injustice they see, making them a refreshing change from the cookie-cutter pop stars that dominate the charts. With their infectious energy and undeniable talent, FONTAINES D.C. are definitely a band to keep an eye on. And who knows, maybe one day they'll be headlining Glastonbury or selling out arenas around the world. But for now, we'll just have to settle for blasting "Dogrel" on repeat and hoping they announce a tour soon.
