'Skinty Fia' is Fontaines D.C.'s third record in as many years. Used colloquially as an expletive, the title roughly translates from the Irish language into English as 'the damnation of the deer'; the spelling crassly anglicised, and its 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 privatised culture in danger of going the way of the extinct Irish giant deer.

Reviews5 stars out of 5 -- "The sonic shifts on ‘Skinty Fia’ are subtly experimental; the album is the sound of a band stretching into new shapes.", "The punk band’s third album homes in on the experience of being an Irish person living in England -- and all the trials, tribulations, and culture clashes inherent in that reality. It’s also just a straight-ahead, powerful rock & roll record...", "The Dublin fivesome deal in the kind of post-punk fatalism that any fan of Joy Division, Wire, and Gang of Four will recognize.", "SKINTY's urgent churn of spiraling vocals and serrated guitars -- which debuted at no. 1 in the U.K. -- blew the cobwebs off a moribund genre dominated by corpo-rock and tired retro revivalists."

Additional InformationAlthough they've settled into their sound with their most self-assured songwriting yet, this album adeptly reflects the tension in the band's surroundings.
