Irish post-punk band Fontaines D.C only waited 18 months between their debut and this sophomore follow up album. Ot still manages to veer away from what you might expect, with acts like Suicide and The Beach Boys apparently more influential on the writing process than the post-punk outfits you might expect. Still the record features anthems about flirting with self-destruction and gargantuan tunes that have fast and frenetic grooves. Touches of the surrealism they experienced while on a constant and busy tour pervade the album and make it a fine follow up that show the band still have a great knack for writing urgent songs that are both personal yet relatable.
