Fontaines D.C. announce headline show at Belfast Vital with KNEECAP
Fontaines D.C. have announced their largest headline performance at Belfast Vital on August 29, supported by KNEECAP. Three+ and artist pre-sale begins tomorrow at 10 a.m., while MCD pre-sale kicks off on April 24 at the same time. General sales launch on April 25, also at 10 a.m. The show marks their first time playing in Belfast since their two Ulster Hall shows in 2022. Less than a week ago, the band released the deluxe edition of their 2024 album Romance . The record includes Its Amazing To Be Young, a track released back in February, along with the new song Before You I Just Forgot. It also features a stripped-back version of Starburster, blended with David Lynchs In Heaven (Lady In The Radiator Song), which appeared in the Eraserhead soundtrack. Before You I Just Forget is a song that started with a vision of this really blown out sound, something that heaved and shifted with new details becoming apparent every time you would listen, said guitarist Conor Curley. Like never being able to step in the same river twice, the song morphs and changes finishing with an incredible string part by Grian. Fontaines D.C. began their North American tour yesterday, which will be followed by a European tour in June and a UK tour in July. The band also recently announced a show at Dublins St Jamess Gate set for May 25. Sign up to their mailing list here before 8 a.m. tomorrow for access to the artist pre-sale. Tickets will be available here.

Fontaines D.C. Release Romance Deluxe, Featuring New Songs and David Lynch Cover: Stream
The post Fontaines D.C. Release Romance Deluxe, Featuring New Songs and David Lynch Cover: Stream appeared first on Consequence. Days ahead of kicking off their 2025 North American tour in Seattle, Fontaines D.C. have released a deluxe edition of their acclaimed 2024 album, Romance, featuring three new tracks: 'Before You I Just Forget,' the previously-released single 'It's Amazing to Be Young,' and a mash-up of 'Starburster' and David Lynch's 'In Heaven (Lady in the Radiator Song).' Now spanning 14 tracks in total, the deluxe version of Romance reaffirms why Consequence named the band our 2024 Band of the Year, melding their post-punk grit with dreamy moments of introspection. The new track, 'Before You I Just Forget,' does this by balancing a swaggering, almost spoken-word refrain with melodic interludes colored by string parts and chorused guitar arpeggios. Get Fontaines D.C. Tickets Here Speaking about 'Before You I Just Forget,' the band's Conor Curley said the song 'started with a vision of this really blown out sound, something that heaved and shifted with new details, becoming apparent every time you would listen.' In its final form, the song 'morphs and changes,' Curley continued, 'like never being able to step in the same river twice.' Concluding, he commended the 'incredible string part by Grian [Chatten].' As for 'Starburster / In Heaven (Lady in the Radiator Song),' the mash-up serves as both a celebration for the late David Lynch (who passed this past January) and a as a platform to place the band's hit — and one of the best songs of 2024 — 'Starburster,' in a new stripped-back context, with a piano-led arrangement and raw, intimate vocals from Chatten. Stream the new tracks below. As for their 2025 tour, Fontaines D.C. will kick off their North American leg on April 17th, with stops booked in Seattle, Dallas, Atlanta, Detroit, and more cities (get tickets). In May, they'll wrap the US tour with a three-night run at New York's Hammerstein Ballroom, and will then hop the pond for a European tour beginning in June. Artwork: Tracklist: 01. Romance 02.
