{"product_id":"fontaines-d-c-dogrel","title":"Fontaines D.C. - Dogrel","description":"\u003cp\u003eDogrel is the ferocious 2019 debut from Fontaines D.C., a record that reintroduced post-punk with a Dublin snarl and a poet’s heart. It is restless, romantic, and defiantly alive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReleased on Partisan Records, the album captures a young band documenting their city with both grit and reverence. Frontman Grian Chatten delivers lyrics like street-corner manifestos, sketching late-night wanderers and working-class dreamers with unfiltered clarity. There is a literary bent here, but it never feels precious. Instead, Dogrel moves with the urgency of lived experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOpening salvo “Big” is all sharp edges and swagger, a statement of intent that barrels forward on wiry guitars and pounding drums. “Boys In The Better Land” pairs chant-along hooks with a sly critique of aspiration and escape, while “Too Real” spirals into anxious repetition that feels thrillingly unhinged. Then there is “Roy’s Tune,” a surprisingly tender comedown that reveals the band’s melodic core beneath the bravado.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePressed to vinyl, Dogrel thrives in analog form, its jagged textures and cavernous reverb given room to breathe. For collectors, it stands as the document of a band at ignition point - hungry, literate, and ready to turn small club stages into something mythic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vinyl.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45923506061473,"sku":"720841216612","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0673\/7038\/5569\/files\/8448904298801_85quality_3702079-2413850.webp?v=1776202484","url":"https:\/\/store.consequence.net\/products\/fontaines-d-c-dogrel","provider":"Consequence Merch","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
