Fontaines D.C., Live at Kilmainham Gaol
LTD VINYL IN STOCK NOW
RSD 21 LTD RELEASE _______________________________________
On
14th July 2020, Fontaines D.C. played a selection of songs from their
'Dogrel' and 'A Hero's Death' albums live at Kilmainham Jail as part of
the Other Voices Courage Series.
It
is an old cliche for historians to ask ‘if these walls could speak,
what would they tell us?’ Fortunately, the walls of Kilmainham Gaol tell
us exactly how they feel. Faded with time, but still stubbornly there,
are the messages of Ireland’s revolutionary generations. Over one door
are the quoted words of Patrick H. Pearse, poet and leader of the Easter
Rising, thundering ‘Beware of the Risen People.’ Perhaps the most
evocative piece of graffiti in the prison reads simply ‘A Few Men
Faithful and a Deathless Dream.’
The
album arrives on 180g heavyweight black LP in a gatefold jacket. Dublin
historian Donal Fallon has written an essay on Kilmainham Gaol which is
featured on the back cover. Includes an exclusive poster.
The product does not come with a download code.
