KNEECAP

The Belfast-Derry trio are back with a blistering album that revels in darkness while bursting through the void with illuminated revery. This is FENIAN.

Masters of rave and rap theatre, FENIAN represents Kneecap’s most sophisticated exploration of language and sounds. What began in 2017 as a DIY project with rudimentary hip-hop beats, has grown into a global movement.

Throughout, the sirens and alarms ring, and the chorus’s blast. Revolutionary and rebellious, confrontational and impossibly catchy, inescapably intelligent and brilliantly rendered, FENIAN doesn’t just represent the next phase in Kneecap’s trajectory but stands as a remarkable record that thrills as much as it surprises.

Closing 2025 with two sold out nights in front of 24,000 Fenians at Dublin’s huge 3Arena, and beginning the year with a tour of Japan, 2026 will see Kneecap play their biggest headline show to date at Crystal Palace Park in London, as well as multiple festival headline slots.
