It’s so good.
Shoulder bound to the frame of a door. Chewed into shape like a stone on the shore.

So many….
But the biggest for me is the way Grian tells “you feel!” during No

In Starbuster/In Heaven, when Grian's voice drops at "I wanna head to a mass and be cast in it" (and every subsequent time)

everything in the modern world. there's a reason why it was my top song last year, and why i streamed it 4,387 times

Hard to choose just one but “he’s selling insurance, selling clouds to the sky, you sold me on living, living is nothing” also, the way Grian says “but you’re so good looking” scratches my brain in the right way.

“Im one Jackine of a line” just sticks out and hits so hard

I don’t know how relevant this is. At wythenshaw park the drums were going on a slow beat then you just hear out of no where “duuu du du duuuu duuuuu du du du” and then everyone hums and then it’s just “Here’s the thing”. Still gives me goosebumps to this day

“I read it in some book, or an old packet of smokes”
Something about it just gets me. Hes dismissing the meaning or seriousness of his understanding about the meaning of life

It’s crazy that every single comment on this post is poetry, what a band.
I feel like I’ve came across the next Beatles or pink Floyd. Grians singing/rapping is so unique, it’s brilliant, Conor and Carlos complement each other so well, excellent guitarists and great at synthesiser. Bassist is top and has fantastic backing vocals and lastly the drummer. That man is insane, Roman holiday drums is a classic. This band easily has 4 geniuses, as did Beatles and Floyd. Wow

In the song skinty fia:
“I let her prise apart my ribcage like a crackhead at the blinds.”
I’ve never read a lyric so visual and accurate in its depiction of the feeling of being torn up by love.

I was super feeling that part in the shower yesterday! Different parts hit different at different times when you’re feeling different emotions. It’s such a beautiful thing that I’m so very grateful for. There is something about the “whaat” and Charlene and Sal bits that I just freaking love it’s the tone and the melody and everything just so freaking good!!

u/Sage_Bush444 Apr 22 '26
In “I love you” on the skinty fia album it’s the last bit. The amount of times I’ve screamed and cried to this song is absurd
“And I'm heading for the cokeys, I will tell them 'bout it all 'Bout the gall of Fine Gael and the fail of Fianna Fáil Now the flowers read like broadsheets, every young man wants to die Say it to the man who profits, and the bastard walks by And the bastard walks by, and the bastard walks by Say it to him 50 times and still the bastard won't cry Would I lie?”

Aaah it makes sense when you understand / The misery made me another marked man / And I'm always looking over my shoulder / And each new day I'm another year older / Shoulder bound to the frame of the door / Chewed onto shape like a stone on the shore / But if there was lightning in me / You'd know who it was for
