Kneecap announce new album FENIAN, share "Liars Tale"

We had all the motivation we needed... this isn't a swift reaction, but a considered response to those that tried to silence us. And failed. Made with Dan Carey, a producer we are honored to have worked with. It's a more sinister sound... because these are sinister times. But also defiant and triumphant. Inspired by, and proudly named, "Fenian," who were warriors in Irish folklore, and later a derogatory term for the Irish.
