i take back everything i said about fontaines cd last week, because _this_ is the irish music i really want to listen to. it definitely sits more in the folk music corner of the genre wheel, but it has the same "waving a fist at authority" feel as punk music, but perhaps a smidge more hedonistic. part of the beauty of this album is its pure catchiness; the sick bed of cuchulainn throws you directly in the deep end with the high energy and toe tap-pability, in a way that the rest of the album actually generally avoids; there are some more somber tracks like a rainy night in soho, and some purely instrumentals like planxty noel hill, but the rest seem to sit comfortably in the middle, like the blissful back end of a night out partying with friends

this album also managed to shoot me off on a research tangent on the striking similarities between irish folk tunes and the iconic pirate sea shanty. the answer wasn't as cut and dry as i was hoping, and my personal perspective is probably swayed by public media's depiction of the classic sea shanty, but it was a cute little historical rabbithole nevertheless
