In The Modern World

The Patch Where Nothing Grows

Space rock :

Drifting through the silence black as tar
Rings of Saturn stretching far so far
What’s the meaning in this vast cold space
Tell me why we run this endless race


Fractured minds trapped in a glassy haze
Souls exploding like a comet’s blaze
Cosmic echoes screaming out for truth
Where’s the map to find eternal youth

Show me the void the infinite tear
Where nothing feels heavy the weightless air
Answers hide in shadows unseen
Are we real or just some fleeting dream

Stars are whispers distant burning eyes
Galaxies collide where dead gods lie
Time bends and twists but never mends
Is this beginning or where it all ends

Footprints in the stardust crumble slow
We take but leave no mark on the glow
Bound to planets chains made of fear
Who decides why we are even here

Show me the void the infinite tear
Where nothing feels heavy the weightless air
Answers hide in shadows unseen
Are we real or just some fleeting dream

Infinite Void

Skinty Fia is an Irish phrase which translates to English as “the damnation of the deer” and the album’s cover art features a deer, plucked from its natural habitat and deposited in the hallway of a home, illuminated by an artificial red glow. The Irish giant deer is an extinct species and the band’s thoughts on Irish identity are central to Skinty Fia. While Dogrel was littered with snapshots of the Dublin characters -  like the cabbie in “Boys In The Better Land” - and A Hero’s Death documented the dislocation and disconnection the band felt as they traveled the globe on tour, on Skinty Fia Fontaines D.C. are addressing their Irishness from afar as they recreate new lives for themselves elsewhere. For a band whose hometown courses through their veins -  “D.C.” stands for “Dublin City” - the album finds them trying to resolve the need to broaden their horizons with the affection they still feel for the land and people they’ve left behind.
