Fontaines D.C., Barba Negra Budapest, 21 June

• 25 Feb 2025 7:16 PM

The Irish post-punk band gave one of the most impressive concerts at this year's Sziget Festival. The band has since released their new album Romance, and they announced their first headline show in Hungary on 21 June 2025 at Barba Negra.

Romance amid approaching armageddon. Life in a snowglobe, a pastoral scene made ever-precarious, teetering on chaos created by the flick of the wrist. Love as an antique, that generations after us will only understand from history books.

Fontaines D.C.’s fourth album ROMANCE interrogates amorphous concepts of love and relationships, alienation and identity, fantasy and reality.

11 tracks constellate ideas that have been percolating among Grian Chatten (vocals), Carlos O’Connell (guitar), Conor Curley (guitar), Conor Deegan (bass), and Tom Coll (drums) since 2021’s No.1 record Skinty Fia and tour with Arctic Monkeys.

The album represents a provocative sonic and aesthetic era for the Dublin-made, now London-based band. Released on 23 August, the James Ford-produced record has been met with an incredible response from fans and critics alike.

Selling more than twice as much as their acclaimed 2022 release Skinty Fia in the first week, ROMANCE received a host of five-star plaudits from the likes of NME, The Guardian, and Rolling Stone UK meanwhile songwriting legend Elton John recently declared that they’re “the best band out there at the moment”.

With its innovative sound and captivating artistry, ROMANCE cements Fontaines D.C.'s status as “the defining band of their generation” (NME).

A summer of international live shows and festivals has drawn fans deeper into their rapidly expanding universe – they even performed in Sziget Festival. The Fontaines D.C. are undoubtedly one of the most interesting bands of our time, so it's not worth missing their first headline show in Hungary on 21 June 2025 at Barba Negra.
