00:00Hi, I'm Andrew Trendall, you're watching NME, we're here at Glastonbury 2024, Fontaine's
00:10DC.
00:11NME.
00:12A lot of people have been talking about the schedule clashing between you and Idles, I
00:15was just wondering if you had any like text banter with them, saying like bring your A
00:19game.
00:20Yeah, they're shitting themselves.
00:23Romance out end of August.
00:25We've heard Starburster, we've heard Favourite, two very, very different sides of the record,
00:30but what do you think they tell us about the record?
00:32Yeah, I think they tell us who we want to be and where we came from as well.
00:38You know, Starburster is just trying to push things out there and yeah, Favourite is trying
00:43to remember we're still bringing who we were with us while we do that.
00:46It also feels like very much like its own world in terms of like the artwork, the new
00:49look and that.
00:50What can you tell us about like what that world is on this record?
00:54I think it's kind of like for the first time it's sort of an album that looks at our present
01:03with sort of a forward view, you know, rather than, I think in the past we've sort of like
01:11either tried to live in the past or missed the past.
01:15Now we're kind of like trying to sort of understand the world we live in right now and not trying
01:21to, you know, think of something that's gone, but to imagine something that's to come.
01:27Now that you've kind of blown the doors off with this record, do you feel like you can
01:29go anywhere now?
01:30Could we hear a Fontaine's Metal record?
01:32I don't know where we could go to and I think that's a really special thing to be able to
01:36say when you're on your fourth record.
01:37We aren't on rails yet, you know.
01:40Could we make a metal record?
01:42I don't know.
01:43I think that we always try and make a record that has different kinds of ideas for songs.
01:48Never really made one specific kind of record, I don't think, myself.
01:52Maybe that's just being too close to it.
01:53Maybe it's all exactly the same song.
01:54I mean, it is the same chord progression every time, but we won't talk about that.
