I'm a wee Greenland Shark, barely 150 years old and even my mum and dad love Fontaines.
I am Galactus, devourer of worlds, I am the sole remnant of the universe that existed before this one, and now that I have heard this band, I hunger no more.

I think I remember you from the Neolithic period.
"With a face like sin and a heart like a James Joyce novel" is poetic as hell. I know these guys got together over their shared love of poetry and I sincerely hope they don't forget their roots. As a young person, it makes me ecstatic as hell to listen to young bands who know what's up. I also love that the lead singer sings in his natural accent; if you have an accent, use it, don't obscure it.

I'm 54 and digging this band! But then again I'm an old punker since 1981!
I'm 66 and just discovered this by way of a post on a Gang of Youths song. Talk about being transported! Makes my heart beat stronger, Gotta luv it!
At last, a young band we can believe in. Superb on every level.
Ils sont vraiment brillants ces jeunes de Dublin - Greetings from Bordeaux
They play their own instruments. They have a drum kit. They have a guitarist. The lyrics are spot on. I love their sound. Beyond cool.
Me and my better half are in our 50s and these guys were the last gig we saw right before the pandemic music is ageless ‘do not go quietly into the night’😊

I heard this for the first time on the radio yesterday, and thought that I was listening to some lost awesome 80's/90's record that only the cool DJ's knew. Turns out it's a bang up to date slice of excellence. Love it. Thought that quality guitar music was dead - WRONG!

I'm Japanese.I love this music.
I am 89 this band brought back so many memories
I’m 106 and I was head banging to this when I first heard it
Absolutely mind blowing good.just heard it on the radio in shop this morning .lucky for me they said the band's name after it finished..and here I am.fucking epic
i saw them at victorious festival in portsmouth and that was the first time i heard them. i now absolutely love them and as a teenager it’s nice to see people who are a lot older than me agree
It`s a rare a beautiful thing when a band look as cool as they sound. This Dublin band have been a breath of fresh air for us older music fans because the younger ones need this as much as we do ! Godspeed Fontaines DC.
So far, the best thing I've heard all year. Needed a jolt like this.
This takes me right back to some exciting Irish bands like - Sultans of Ping - A House - The Fatima Mansions - JJ72... Fontaines DC have it going on... I love it as it feels like just right for this moment.

this is literally on of the best songs I've heard in quite a time now
Great song !! back to 70/80's John Peel time !!
That's some beat right there. My fav track of theirs. Go-on go-on go-on. I feel like I'm roaring along on a bike just sitting here listening to it.
In d 90s these would Dominate d airwaves,cause they're closer 2 Perfection than d rest,end of.I just got BBC6&found'em,better l8 than never,aye?☮️&❤from Oslo.Time flies,use it,fly🪽
So far the only great thing about 2020 is stumbling across this band. Freaking phenomenal!
I have just come across them , I am just shy of 62 ! can I go & see them too ? just wonderful
Best f--king rock song I have heard in a long time.
You know they're great when you dig every single on first listen. Refreshing authentic rock n roll
Love!! Could easily be a band from my high school days in the early 80's. Great throwback feel!
Amazing band, really made me realise who I am. They won’t see how much impact they’ve already made on people
Every once in a long while I come accidentally come across music that immediately grabs my attention. I just heard a song this band on radio South Winds Blow which sounds great, after checking Fontaines D.C on youtube and listening to a few of their tunes my ears pick up on a great mix of MC5, Damien Dempsey, Shane MacGowan, Billy Bragg, Joy Division, a little Dylan, James Joyce, A little of A House, The Strokes, I know that with a few more listens all those others references will fade away The music is great, it, it is raw, it is real, it is fresh, those boys tell great stories, they fully believe in what they are doing, they grab your attention. What more do you need to enjoy excellent music.
