Despite Dublin rock band Fontaines DC having a more than hectic schedule ahead of them, they aren't getting rest in early with the release of a video for their brand new single 'Too Real'. The track was premiered in the UK by Steve Lamacq on BBC 6 Music and in the US by John Richards on KEXP, where the group also managed to squeeze in the recording of a live session.

Alongside 'Too Real' also comes ‘The Cuckoo Is A-Callin’, the pair of which will also be released in the shape of a double A-side single on the 21st of December which is available for pre-order now.

Having signed to Partisan Records earlier in the year, this release comes sandwiched in between that news an extensive upcoming touring schedule for the band that includes support shows for Idles and Shame as well as festival appearances and headline slots of their own. The full list of dates and venues - spanning from this month to May 2019 - is set out below.

'Too Real' represents a slightly more energetic direction from Fontaines DC's more laid back previous releases, with its video being directed by Hugh Mulhern, who said it is comprised of "low-brow visuals inspired by Buster Keaton, James Joyce, The Dubliners and Jim Henson to discuss high-brow ramblings of some stout swilling stereotypes.”
