Fontaines D.C. examines the dilution of Irish culture abroad while wandering through a surreal party in the new 'Skinty Fia' music video.
Fontaines D.C. grapple with the dilution and disruption of Irish culture abroad on their new song “Skinty Fia,” the title track from the outfit’s upcoming album, out April 22 via Partisan Records.
“Skinty Fia” moves at a quick but menacing pace, the clang in the percussion echoing over an ominous churn of guitars and synths. Lyrically, the song uses a metaphor of a doomed relationship to explore some of the ideas the term “Skinty Fia” — an old Irish swear meaning “the damnation of the deer” — conjured for Fontaines D.C. singer Gian Chatten., “[I]t sounds like mutation and doom and inevitability and all these things that I felt were congruous to my idea of Irishness abroad.
“Skinty Fia” also arrives with an appropriately eerie music video, directed by Hugh Mulhern. In the clip, Chatten makes his way through a packed party crowd that grows increasingly surreal, with strange figures and rituals popping up amidst the revelry.
