So, does everyone here hate the Fontaines yet?

Don't y'all usually find a reason to hate popular stuff?

There is always a reason. They all already exist and can only be unlocked by posting on thumped until either they become apparent or thumped becomes popular.

Read back a few pages

on it

My suspicions are that their popularity correlates heavily with dislike of them on here

Science!

wouldn't be a fan of them at all but fair dues to them etc. I was surprised to see how generally liked they were in this thread alright though. (if i'm remembering correctly from reading it a few months back). would have thought they were in for an all-in shitting on from thumped

They’d get a royal shitting on from me if i could even be bothered. But this is the site that waxed poetic in 2005 about how fucking epically transcendant Arcade Fire were, so don’t hold out hope.

It is beyond me why people give a flying fuck about some car company sponsored award pap

It used to be good for sales and generating interest in albums on the list. I'm not sure if it has that effect anymore.

Some good albums on the list this year. I'm not going to pretend I've ever heard of Dave though

Black Midi and Idles were AWFUL. Fontaines were grand and you could see that performance doing a lot to get them headlining UK festival stages next year. No tune, mind...

Cate Le Bon should have won, seemed to have sound problems on the night, singing was a bit off key

 

[sleepy]

i didn't even realise these awards were on, i'm so out of touch.

I've actually spent more time reading this thread than actually listening to Fontaines

But sure it’s subjective right? Why ‘should she have won’?

It’s not based on that nights performance ?

Because I said so

Well fine then!

Where do the lafontaines factor in to this whole thing?

I've heard of Dave. In fact I know at least two of his songs inside out.
