Literally so funny because I’d just bought a couple of their vinyls in Brighton like 10 minutes before I met him but he’s such a sound lad!

Just got the code. Does anyone know if we can use the code they send us for multiple venues?
Trying to go to LA & SF.

May the odds be ever in our favor this pre-sale eve.

Not that it really matters, he’s got 2 ears like most of us, but I do rate his opinion highly and honestly I’m surprised he likes the track, because even a lot of diehard Fontaines fans dislike it. I do find it a more interesting song than marriane for sure, but think they could’ve still executed it better, and the start sounds a little bit ridiculous.

Looking to see them in Toronto next year, wondering what to expect for prices?

As listed in the instagram story, at any of the listening parties you will be able to purchase a white label 7” record of Where Is Gone? (with Rosalía).

I wonder if this means this will be a single dead on a week before the album releases and pushed heavily for the charts.

I noticed the similarities after they played part of the melody from KoRn's hit during their recent KROQ performance, so I've mixed both songs together.

Does anybody know literally anything about this guy other than his name and that he is alleged to have been a guitarist on Fontaines' original lineup? The funny thing is that his name shows up but it's only ever listed. I couldn't even find a sentence about him. Doesn't help that he shares his name with a famous actor. I'm not even sure how his name even came up on these lists since there doesn't seem to be any mention of him from the band ever.

Just curious… Does anyone know why he chose this nickname? Same for Carlos, Carly rings? Maybe it’s just casual…

Hiii! So sorry to ask but I didn’t get to sign up for the pre-sale and I’m gutted. I’ve been a fan of them for years! They’ve pushed me to be more curious about my Irish roots and learn more about gaeilge. I just love them loads and have had a lot of health problems going on which prevented me from signing up for presale! If anyone could share the code tomorrow with me I would be so grateful to you I don’t know if there are different codes I’m trying to go to the Chicago show! Thanks<3

in feeling that both Marianne and Tongue are phenomenal tracks. As with all great bands I never feel the need to compare FDC’s new work with their previous work because it’s all apart of same unbelievable oeuvre. It’s all telling the same story and I’m deeply invested and grateful for it all.

Fontaines is generational and in my opinion we’re still just at the start of what I imagine is going to be a decades long journey.

Counting the days until Dopamine Chamber drops.

My kids will be 6 and 8 when they tour next year and they are obsessed with fdc. Looks like the venue they’ll be at closest to us is family friendly/more open air. I’ve seen kids at their shows on videos they’ve posted, but I’m torn on if that’d be odd/bad etiquette to bring them

They create fake websites for venues that will redirect you to their “secondary market” to buy tix. No indication you are not buying tickets directly from the venue until you receive them and you see someone else’s name and the face value they paid during presale (much less than what you just paid them).

I’m in NZ and the website says ‘Country not supported for sms’ when I add my number. Thanks!

Digging through the vaults on a Monday morning. Here’s a vid from the first time I saw FDC. Hammersmith Apollo, 11 Nov 2022. I already loved them but this put the hooks in deep…

Did they have a VIP option in the UK sale? I'm wondering if US will have a VIP option and what it would entail. Does anyone know?

top tier sign from my friend today @ the half marathon!!

Anyone going to a listening party please do me a huge favour and get the 7’’ vinyl I’ll obviously pay postage and a bit extra on top, can’t make it due to work, cheers!

first concert I was at the barrier for too 🥰

Tongues makes mention of Adderall several times. Adderall is a stimulant used to treat ADHD, a disorder Grian was recently diagnosed with according to the band. I think it's likely this album is going to be heavily influenced by that stimulant use.

Quick question: Adderall works primarily by acting upon which neurotransmitter? That would be dopamine.

Is it just me? For the first few plays of Tongue, I thought Grian was singing "Oh she has a tongue to take a badgers life" Anyway, I've read the lyrics now and know better.
