As Lou Reed did with New York, or Ray Davies with London, or indeed The Smiths with Manchester. It's a through-line that can be discovered in all the best of Irish art, whichever the medium, and the band's intent is drolly embodied in the album's knowing title. To give it its dictionary definition (or close enough for now): crude verse of little artistic worth. The ribald rhymes of the docks, the factories and the early houses. The authentic poetry of the people, which any smart Irish poet knows it is foolish to think oneself above. For in it all is an ineffable beauty, something these young men understand very well.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41143932420293,"sku":"FONTAINES-DC-DOGREL-LP-6612","price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0521\/6023\/3669\/products\/3702079-2413850.jpg?v=1644094641"},{"product_id":"fontaines-dc-a-heros-death-lp","title":"FONTAINES D.C.

Now the band return with their third record in as many years: Skinty Fia. Used colloquially as an expletive, the title roughly translates from the Irish language into English as 'the damnation of the deer'; the spelling crassly anglicized, and it's meaning diluted through generations. Part bittersweet romance, part darkly political triumph - the songs ultimately form a long-distance love letter, one that laments an increasingly privatized culture in danger of going the way of the extinct Irish giant deer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTRACKLIST\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 In Ar Gcroithe Go Deo\u003cbr\u003e2 Big Shot\u003cbr\u003e3 How Cold Love Is\u003cbr\u003e4 Jackie Down the Line\u003cbr\u003e5 Bloomsday\u003cbr\u003e6 Roman Holiday\u003cbr\u003e7 The Couple Across the Way\u003cbr\u003e8 Skinty Fia\u003cbr\u003e9 I Love You\u003cbr\u003e10 Nabokov\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"AEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44861075620037,"sku":"FONTAINES-DC-SKINTY-FIA-LP-1615","price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0521\/6023\/3669\/files\/0720841301615.jpg?v=1751245082"},{"product_id":"fontaines-dc-romance-lp","title":"FONTAINES DC 'ROMANCE' LP","description":"\u003cp\u003eIrish indie rock sensation Fontaines D.C. return with new album ROMANCE, their debut on XL Recordings, out on August 23rd.
