The concluding track on Kneecap's new album Fenian - released today (May 1st) - is a deeply personal and moving piece by the band's&nbsp;Móglaí Bap about his sadly departed mother, and its acompanied by a 12 minute short film which incorporates the song whilst addressing its subject in profound terms.The song is&nbsp;Móglaí Bap's response to the death of his mother by suicide after suffering depression for years, an attempt to reach back to happier times - with the added contribution of Kae Tempest. Set at the wake of a young man who has died by suicide, James's film dramatises the emotional impact upon his family and friends.Featuring an exceptional cast, with Liam Cunningham and Deirdre O’Kane as the young man's bereaved parents, James's camera is a low-key spectator on brief conversations, snatched between performance sections of the track. The narrative&nbsp;captures the way people use words - including humour - to cope with intense grief. But there is also just the pictures that say everything, particularly the haunted face of mostly silent Cunningham as the devastated father.&nbsp;[imgtoken data:1]"There’s a line in the track which encapsulates everything I’d like to say, 'It’s not an issue, I just want to say I missed you'.&nbsp;That’s the mentality of this film. It’s not angry at those who have chosen to leave by taking their own life, but it’s compassionate to those that are still here," says James about the film for Irish Goodbye, which follows his videos for the new album's <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2026/01/30/kneecap-liars-tale-thomas-james/93964" target="_blank">A Liar's Tale</a> and title track <a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2026/04/13/kneecap-fenian-thomas-james/94613" target="_blank">Fenian</a>."It’s not often I’m candid or honest when I write these things - but this deserves more than hiding behind some shitty quip about the craziness of the shoot, or some arbitrary, benign detail you fully know is going to become a pull quote."This film, this song, all deals with something incredibly personal, and incredibly close to my heart, and to many people’s hearts. To be a part of this, to write and think and work, with everything this song is about, has been a privilege - but it also felt like an owed responsibility."I couldn’t be prouder to have been involved in something. It’s been a beautiful, sorrowful and contemplative experience - and I really hope that shows in the film. I’m forever grateful to so many people who helped make this one a reality."

Kneecap ft Kae Tempest 'Irish Goodbye' by Thomas James

Thomas James harnesses the full force of the Kneecap phenomenon in a barnstorming video for Fenian - which places&nbsp;DJ Provai’s now ubiquitous tricolour balaclava very much front and centre.Shot in and around the hip hop trio's home territory of West Belfast - plus additional material&nbsp;in Dublin and London - James reflects the raucous spirit of this party anthem (the title track from Kneecap's forthcoming new album, out May 1st)&nbsp;with the off-kilter surrealism and instant visual power that marked out his video for its predecessor&nbsp;<a href="https://www.promonews.tv/videos/2026/01/30/kneecap-liars-tale-thomas-james/93964" target="_blank">A Liar's Tale</a> -&nbsp;with the intensity dialled down and the fun dialled up to the max.The song is about taking back a term that is steeped in Irish history and pride with then became an anti-Irish slur. The video uses the tricolour balaclava as the device to do that - and it shows up in all sorts of surprising places..."For me, this track is about a reclaiming of identity," says James. "Not only of the word, but for people too. Which is what our film is. A trippy whirlwind through people and places who embody the spirit of the boys and the song. Of seeing the word Fenian through a new lens."It was a blast. It was chaos. It was a fever dream of running around Ireland convincing people to pop a bally on and do something mental. Good times had by all."[imgtoken data:1][imgtoken data:2]

It&#39;s the tennis duel of the ages, of the two best players anywhere, and possibly of all times. And forget Borg/McEnroe, or Federer/Nadal or even King/Riggs. This is the big one: Isaac Acey v Isiah Smash.Jackson Ducasse has concocted a classic (tennis) court encounter between the two sides of the super-competitive psyche of singer-songwriter Isaac Gracie, from an idea devised by both the artist and director. It manages to encompass deadpan comedy, existentialism, wistfulness, and a bit of half-decent play.Most importantly,&nbsp;both red Isaac and blue Isaac look very cool in their 80s tennis threads, so you don&#39;t even have to like tennis to like this.Game set and match to doubles partners Gracie and Ducasse.

In Lucie Beecham&#39;s video for Saint Clair, an undertaker becomes fascinated by his work - a dead woman in her later years, who was beautiful in her youth. And as the undertaker is also a talented make-up artist, he effects a remarkable transformation.With Gilly Daniels and Saint Clair herself playing the older and younger versions of the woman, Freddy Elletson excels in the role of the sensitive, but rather creepy mortician. It&#39;s a concisely-told ghost-like story which is a very effective visual accompaniment to Saint Clair&#39;s Human Touch.

Doc Brown gets back to hiphop, without quite giving up on&nbsp;the comedy, in Shawn Butcher&#39;s watchable promo for Corruptible.There&#39;s certainly an old school vibe about Doc hanging with his homeys, and visual trickery as he also hangs out with his versions of himself. And as you might expect it flips between&nbsp;seriousness and tongue-in-cheekness. With even a smidgeon of East 17 in there?
