Fontaines D.C. 'Tongue' by John Angus Stewart
Promonews - 2nd Oct 2026
Fontaines D.C. reveal another track from their upcoming album Dopamine Chamber, via a discombulating encounter with the band by John Angus Stewart - filmed in New York City, on a bus crossing from Brooklyn to Manhattan.
The video for Tongue is as lo-fi as the previous one, for Marianne, was super-stylised. But the effect of bringing us into the Fontaines world is consistent with that and their other videos. It's slightly unnerving, with singer blue-tinged Griann's face in close-up for much of the video, bar the occasional swerve to the other band members with the Manhattan skyline beyond. Â
As it says on the end credits, it was filmed by the band themselves - and that does not come as a surprise. It's also shot on some basic, possibly old, equipment. But under John Angus Stewart's supervision the blurriness is a device to give the band back their edge.
