IDLES WITH FONTAINES D.C. at the Belly Up Tavern
Details
THIS IS GOING TO BE THE SHOW OF 2019!! To have both of these bands on the same bill is... miraculous!!!!!
Here is a quote regarding the IDLES' newest album, "Joy as an Act of Resistance":
"Jordan Bassett, reviewing the album for NME, awarded the album five stars, calling it "an instant classic". Dave Simpson, for The Guardian gave it fours stars, describing it as '11 songs of focused, cathartic rage, rooted in their own experiences', and calling Idles "Britain’s most necessary band".
DC Fontaines is another amazing band. From Dublin, one review describes their music as follows:
"...dark and melancholic post-punk music that feels visceral and raw to its core. If you are a fan of 70s post-punk and love the gut-wrenching beats of Joy Division, then Fontaines D.C. is a must-have on your playlist. This quintet bring the classic elements of post-punk, but hybridizes with contemporary new wave and dark pop mojo... Like modern Joy Division."
Doesnt' get any better than this, kids!
