How do you respond to a year that saw a lifetime’s worth of chaos explode? Courtroom dramas and blacklisting, media madness and political policing, prime ministers intervening in festival lineups, attempts at censorship and stifling of expression? Kneecap aren’t having any of that. There is finer art to be made. So, how do you respond? As the saying goes:is fearr lúbadh ná briseadh– it’s better to bend than to break.
Masters of rave and rap theatre,FENIANrepresents Kneecap’s most sophisticated exploration of language and sounds. What began in 2017 as a DIY project with rudimentary hip-hop beats, has grown into a global movement. WithFENIAN, Kneecap reclaim their creative territory developing massively along their own singular trajectory while the headlines were blasting and festival sound systems were blaring.
Produced by Dan Carey (Fontaines D.C., Kae Tempest, Wet Leg),FENIANupends expectations with an incredibly expansive sonic palate, traversing acid house, trip-hop, dubstep, and more, re-announcing Kneecap as utterly authentic and exceptionally creative artists of their generation.
Following their BAFTA and Sundance-award-winning self-titled biopic, their critically acclaimed debut album,Fine Art, a Coachella performance that changed the culture and saw Kneecap centred as artists at the fore of the Palestine solidarity movement, a breathtaking Glastonbury performance, and becoming the most talked about rap group on the planet – never-mind the protests, murals, court appearances, countless front pages, relentless global media coverage, and massive shows around the world – Kneecap have resolved to do what they do best: make incredible tunes that bring thousands upon thousands of fans together to tear the place up.
More darkness. More confrontation. More craic. More energy. More solidarity. More absolute bangers. And more fuel for the unrelenting engine that powers this unstoppable force. With their remarkable second album, Kneecap have come out fighting.
