The Irish-born band Fontaines DC stormed the Queen Elizabeth Theatre in Toronto supporting their recent 4th album release, Romance. Fontaines DC has been around well before they blew up in the last year, their musicality is reminiscent of punk before, channelling the stage presence of the like of the Sex Pistols or the Ramones with a modern take on the sound of punk. their experience is proven as a vibrational intro was played, singer Grian Chatten grinned, appearing in a long black trench coat just before leading into the titular track, "Romance".

The band has been one of the few artists successfully bringing back the authentic feeling and community of punk in the 21st century. Between violently green flashes of strobes, the audience catches glimpses of the effortlessly cool instrumentalists playing through their newest tracks "Favourite" and "Sundowner" ” tossing in some deep cuts like "A Lucid Dream" from their 2020 release. 

Fontaines DC puts on an unmissable show, shows running through 2025 globally.
