Kneecap have announced details of their forthcoming second album, Fenian.
Set for release on April 24, on Heavenly Recordings, the album is the follow-up to 2024's acclaimed Fine Art.
"With how intense and insane this year was we managed to regroup (during a witch hunt and trumped up terrorism charges) to put together an album we are all fucking delighted with," the trio say. "Massive shout out and gratitude to Dan Carey for producing the album. The man's a genius and all round buzzer that is a pleasure to call a friend now. Plenty of shit for us to talk about this year (I am sure you can imagine). We massively appreciate every bit of support we have had in getting through this year and making a piece of work we are all proud of."
