Next year's headliners. Best band in the whole wide world right now.

💯 👏

[@mlezine]

Old music, sorry

[@jamieoshea1681]

​@@mlezinecope harder

[@ejs2222]

@@mlezine The pop and rap music of todays mainstream charts is even more trite and unapoletically "borrowed" from its genre predecessors. This band, this song, this sound might not be new, but its real quality and sounds fresh within the cookie-cutter soundscape of modern music.

[@HLinc.]

💯 can’t wait for the full length album to drop! First two singles are 🔥

[@bhughes8301]

I seriously can’t stop listening to this song. Absolute instant classic. Reminds me so much of a 90s tune. Just lost a good friend and this is helping me for some reason. Cheers from Texas

[@davx6211]

Reminds me of classic Libertines.

[@pkonyoutube]

Total ear worm - love it! They look like they are going through the motions playing it here live and the studio version strangely rocks harder. I hope they lean into this song as it’s so good!

[@donkeyshot10]

Condolences to you my friend...we've all enjoyed the 90s music and now we're starting to lose our friends...well, music helps for sure...

[@followthelights100]

They originally posted this with even worse sound mixing. Suspect this is the best they could do with what they have. Big part of the problem is it's mostly taken from the sound desk so it just has no ambience, no real crowd noise (e.g. when Grian said hello there was a big roar from the crowd but that's not there here so it just sounds dead), no real sense of space. I was there dead centre halfway between sound desk and stage and it sounded great. The whole gig felt electric and the crowd were totally in love with them. Such a great band, cant wait for the new album!

[@SeanMoran3211]

Big problem with capturing live music is that the sound deck is the go to for recordings. Fontaines’ live shows are made with the crowd atmosphere too!

[@ghall9228]

Yeah, you can see in the clapping shots the mics are picking up none of it. A shame because visually it looks like it was a great crowd.

[@followthelights100]

I took a couple of short clips on my phone - uploaded em last night as gives an idea of what it was like in the crowd. Obvs always sounds naff via phone mic but still probably represents what was really going on 😉 kzbin.info/www/bejne/aHTKlJmQpd5khJosi=9ZbdxG6oY-nl89KJ

[@devinprz]

Hey they don’t pull the recordings from the FOH desk, they usually have a truck that houses a broadcast mixer and that’s what we hear at home.

[@BM-qn6fg]

I was there too, right between stage and sound desk stage left. Thought the sound mix was terrible. Felt sorry for the lads cause they gave it socks and the crowd were mad for it. You could see Grian was struggling to hear himself in his earpieces. Somebody fcked up. Compare this to the mix from their previous Glasto performances. Way off.

[@Bambootattoo]

Feel good hit of the summer

You think this mix is bad, you should have heard what was originally put up LMAO.

[@jens2049]

Yup

[@MILFCORE]

Ahhh no wonder they re-uploaded all these videos. Was wondering what was going on lol. But yeah the audio was pretty janky on the videos from a few days ago

[@mickeyaltizer2329]

I listened to their set from Southside Festival on KZbin and it sounds immaculate.

[@Garrett1240]

Explain please

[@anatawaniwatori]

Yes explain pls lol

[@gabri0182]

Best song of summer 2024

[@SenorToucan]

that's actually 'Get Lucky' by Daft Punk

[@theguzzlersband]

It’s actually “Missy Luna” by Limerick’s rock band Static Vision

[@neilsmith1377]

Sounds much better after proper editing. Please do the same with Starburster

[@user-bf9ob6vi9r]

Listen to this track on joules Holland’s it’s so much better

[@Maximus-hq1cz]

I want to see this band live, this looks like such a fun show ! I wish I could go to a Glastonbury.. You guys over there do festivals way better than we do here in the U.S.

[@jg41709]

[@juliehartley3652]

Thank you for your excellent analysis of this song called Favourite. Starburster is my favourite Fontaines DC song, but that is only my preference. Anyway you are my favourite person to watch on KZbin, again it's only my preference and I may change my mind one day. I like your night/day wear and I fully approve of wearing the same clothes whenever you want, why not wear things as you please and not as society dictates? 😃
