Fontaine's D.C., a popular rock band from Dublin, Ireland, has released their fourth album \"Romance,\" their latest release with XL Recordings. Produced by James Ford (Arctic Monkeys, Gorillaz, Depeche Mode, etc.), the album is the band's most confident, original, and sonically adventurous to date. Fontaines D.C., now a London-based band, released their album \"Skinty Fia\" in 2022, which debuted at #1 in the UK and Ireland album charts and won numerous awards, including \"International Group of the Year\" at the 2023 Brit Awards. and won numerous awards, including \"International Group of the Year\" at the 2023 Brit Awards. This album was born on the heels of that success.The preceding and explosive single \"Starburster\" was inspired by lead vocalist Grian Chatten's experience of a panic attack at London's St. Pancras station. This album is the culmination of an idea that has been warming up since the release of \"Skinty Fia\" in 2022. This idea crystallized during their time touring the United States and Mexico with the Arctic Monkeys, where the five band members shared a variety of music and found connections with different artists that influenced them to build their own vast creative universe.In other words, the attitude and aesthetic of Shy Girl and Sega Bodega, and the gritty sound palette of hip-hop and heavy metal like Mos Def, Asap Ferg, Outkast, and Korn. .... The band's sound, which laid bare a rebellious punk sensibility on its earlier albums, has been elevated to more grungy breaks, dystopian electronica, hip-hop-tinged percussion, and dreamy, slow-dive-like textures that will probably surprise fans. The shoegaze elements first expressed in \"Skinty Fia\" are spread out like purple bruises in the new album \"Romance\". On the eve of its release, Chatten says, \"With this album, I'm telling you something I haven't been able to say for a long time now. It doesn't feel like the last one at all, but it feels good to be lighter. We've always had a thing for idealism and romance. (We've always had idealism and romance, and Dogrel was a direct observation of that, but with each album we've moved away from observing it through the lens of Ireland.The second album (the Grammy-nominated A Hero's Death) is about that detachment, and the third (\"Skinty Fia\") is about Irishness displaced by immigration policy. And now we're looking for where the romanticism is, and what kind of romanticism there is.\"- Conor Deegan\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracklisting:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.Romance\u003cbr\u003e2.Starburster\u003cbr\u003e3.Here's The Thing\u003cbr\u003e4.Desire\u003cbr\u003e5.In The Modern World\u003cbr\u003e6.Bug\u003cbr\u003e7.Motorcycle Boy\u003cbr\u003e8.Sundowner\u003cbr\u003e9.Horseness Is The Whatness\u003cbr\u003e10.Death Kink\u003cbr\u003e11.Favourite\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Xl Recordings","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48915243532577,"sku":"191404143612","price":39.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/191404143612.jpg?v=1714850237","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/it-it\/products\/191404143612","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
