New Fontaines DC tune out tomorrow. Sounds fantastic from the preview.

Can't wait! There was a preview on TikTok the other day and then the 90 second preview yesterday. Can't tell if they were the same song or not but both clips are exciting.

Kingfishr have announced they're playing Glastonbury.

Fair few Irish acts on the bill so far. The Scratch were announced today too. Fontaines, Lankum, Kneecap, Mary Wallopers, NewDad already announced and we've two acts in the Emerging Talent Competition finals too.

Still expecting CMAT to be added at some stage.
 


What a fecking tune.
 
Saw Morgana (one half of the incredible Saint Sister) in Whelan's the other night. She hasn't officially released anything yet but there are a couple of tunes on YouTube. I don't exaggerate when I say I reckon her album will win all the awards whenever it does arrive. She's a superstar.



 
RIP Eoin French. An incredibly kind soul and a wonderful artist. A devastating loss for his family.

 
Got to a listening party last night for the new Fontaines DC album.

It's great. Romance, Starburster, In The Modern World, Bug and Death Kink the stand outs.

Ah brilliant, glad to hear. Booked tickets over for the finnsbury park gig next summer which should be a cracker. Didn't really enjoy Here's The Thing as much as the other released tracks.

I think Here's The Thing has fallen victim to Starburster and Favourite being fantastic tracks. It could be one of those tunes that sounds better live.
