Fontaines DC: Bridging Music and Compassion

Origins and Sonic Landscape Formed in Dublin in 2014, Fontaines DC comprises five talented members: Grian Chatten (vocals), Carlos O’Connell (guitar), Conor Curley (guitar), Conor Deegan III (bass), and Tom Coll (drums). Their musical roots intertwine with their shared love for poetry, which adds depth to their lyrical storytelling . Their debut album, “Dogrel,” catapulted them into the…

Happy Sunday, everyone! With the Time Loop AU finally finishing, it seems most fitting to share one more little snippet, though this feels more like a tease, before the first chapter is goes up this week! Let me know if you want to be tagged when it does :)

After checking around him for a second time, he goes to Google and types in: I think I’m in a time loop.

“I’ve got to be losing my mind.” He mutters to himself as he scrolls through the results. Carlos knows he’s a level headed guy but he’s also someone who’s based in truth; and the truth is, he can’t think of any other explanation for why today has gone the way it has.

He spends about thirty minutes combing through articles, forum posts, basically anything he can get his hands on. He finds a couple that he plans to revisit a little later in the day, but for the most part, he’s not getting any answers.

Everything he’s read about has to do with people feeling like they’re stuck in life; like they’re so stuck in a mundane circle of time that everything has started to feel too familiar.

Carlos can empathize with that, of course he can. That thought process was the only thing traveling through his mind this morning, but with the way the rest of the day has gone, it can’t be that.

Remembering Beau’s face, his canine tooth, his Appalachian drawl, that wasn’t born out of the mundane, it couldn’t have been. Causing mayhem to O’Connell’s lunch plans because he already knew the answer to a question he never asked, that couldn’t have been an accident.

This isn’t monotony, this is a replica.

The Camden Electric Ballroom gig celebrating the release of the band's fourth album saw the likes of Harry Styles, Cillian Murphy and Florence Welch in attendance.

by Anagricel Duran | 23rd August 2024

Fontaines D.C. played an intimate surprise gig in London last night (August 22) to launch their new album ‘Romance‘ – check out footage, the setlist and more below.

The Dublin band – comprised of Grian Chatten, Tom Coll, Conor Curley, Conor Deegan III and Carlos O’Connell – took over London’s iconic Electric Ballroom for a last minute show in celebration of the release of their fourth album.

They played to a sold-out crowd of 1500 at the Camden venue which saw the likes of Harry Styles, Cillian Murphy, Florence Welch and more in attendance.

In all this Oasis fiasco with Fontaines D.C., has anyone yet considered the fact that I just love Carlos more for saying, as a rock guitarist, that he doesn’t give a shit about the Oasis reunion? His ‘rock n roll died in vain’ tee from last year ruled and it was prescient. Long live Fontaines n all, and Carlos O’Connell, the man and innovator you are!

“This video is a reminiscing of the past; of each other’s childhoods we didn’t know. To see people we know on an intimate level as adults in the tender ages of childhood, we explore where we came from, and who on some level, still are. I see a lot of familiar faces being pulled, and the antics these lads are undertaking in their videos are so disarming and vulnerable to see. I am at times reminded of boyish mannerisms that they’ve grown out of in the time I’ve known them - and some that they haven’t. I feel their souls there.

I would like this video to serve as a way of honouring our friendships, and moving from that, the relationships we hold dear. Our mothers, fathers, siblings, aunties and uncles, grandmothers and grandfathers. Those who we still have, and those we have sadly lost.

We haven’t lost that connection to each other, and are not afraid to come of age again, holding on to romance in a sometimes trying world.”

wip wednesday

AGENT REYES IS BACK BABY - here with a real, freshly written snippet for you beautiful people.

thank you to @welcometololaland (the soulmates are drowing in tension, that's for fucking sure), @inflarescent, @rmd-writes, @alrightbuckaroo, @birdclowns, @cold-blooded-jelly-doughnut, and @bonheur-cafe for the tags <3

Judd drags a chair over and collapses in between them, “We have intel that the O’Connell family is planning on hitting us when we leave the gala. According to Billy, the O’Connell family and the Cunningham family had been fighting over this particular diamond set before it was seized in the raid, and they caught wind of Cunningham’s plan. It’s not lookin’ too hot for us.”

Carlos moves the bag of peas to the center of the swelling, continuing the conversation. “I can get a file pulled on the O’Connells, maybe have a team move in on them before they can get to us to the sarcophagus.”

Judd is shaking his head before Carlos even finishes speaking, “No, no, no one can know that we’re working with the CIA, or that we’re getting ready to pull out of the game all together. It’s vital that we stay under the radar while pulling out of the game, or else Billy’s gonna take us out, no hesitation. We just get ready for the ambush, make sure we’re properly prepared for the attack.”

“Do we have an actual plan for the set, or are we literally just stealing it and hoping for the best?” Carlos knows he sounds cynical, and maybe even a little whiny, but he’s working with the Phoenix – art heist extraordinaire – he’s allowed to want to see him in action. 

“Marjan pulled the blueprints and security system plans last night, and booked flight tickets for us at 0200, and it’s currently,” TK glances at the phone on the dining table, “10am. We have eighteen hours to figure out how we’re going to pull this off while also fighting off the Cunninghams’ biggest and most powerful rivals – and not die in the process. Cunningham was kind enough,” TK says, the words dripping with disdain and sarcasm, “to get us on the guest list for the gala happening at the archives tomorrow night.”

“Carlos and I will find our way onto the list, it honestly shouldn’t be that complicated – I’ll make a few calls right now,” Paul says, exiting the room. 

Judd silently exits as well, murmuring something under his breath about how he and Grace will work on the escape plans, leaving just TK and Carlos at the dining room table, staring at each other in silence, the tension in the air so thick Carlos thinks he’s choking on it.

We played Primavera this summer, just before Beck. He told us that he asked Alex [Turner] what music he was listening to these days and Alex said the only thing he listens to is Fontaines. And Arctic Monkeys are just so iconic obviously – they were so important when they came through. The whole thing is bizarre, even talking to Beck I was starstruck! And then he talks about another guy I admire, it’s mental. When we were younger, these were all things you’d just never imagine.

Part 2 of my east high casting opinions for various musicals!

Today’s musical is Ride The Cyclone:

Ocean O’Connell Rosenberg: Ashlyn Moon Caswell

(she would play Ocean so hard she would thrive in this role and Miss Jenn took one look at her in her audition and went, yep, that’s our Ocean. What The World Needs is her Belle Reprise.)

Mischa Bachinski: EJ (tell me he wouldn’t play the guy who loves and misses his girlfriend like hell but also sounds like he hates women.)

Jane Doe: Maddox

(listen. She’s made it clear she can’t act, but I think she would play a character who is unknown even to herself well. She’d be so good as someone who is unfamiliar because she is so unfamiliar to the stage in an acting sense.)

Noel Gruber: Carlos would want Noel and be the best candidate, but it would go to Ricky because Miss Jenn wants to make the play interesting and having Ricky be Noel makes it interesting.

Karnak: Carlos. If anyone is getting an inanimate/ animate-inanimate object it’s him. He is Lumiér. He is Olaf. He is Karnak.

Ricky Potts: Jet (he just fits a nice sensible role well. I don’t know what else to say he fits nicely here.)

Constance: Kourtney (I was gonna go with Gina but I have a much better idea for her. Plus Kourtney playing Ashlyn’s best friend -even in a scenario where Ashlyn’s role in the play is a girl who is a bad friend- is everything to me.)

Talia: Gina. She would live for playing a character where she gets to film a sequence of herself frolicking. Plus the added bonus of it not taking up all of her time for filming a movie? It’s perfect for her.)
