Kneecap have announced that their debut album, Fine Art, will arrive June 14 via Heavenly Recordings. Produced by Toddla T, the 12-track album continues an exciting era for Mo Chara, Móglaí Bap, and DJ Próvaí, who recently made waves at this year’s Sundance Film Festival with their self-titled Rich Peppiatt directed semi-biopic film starring Michael Fassbender. “Sick in the Head” features swirling strings and an underwater drum groove that explodes into a live sound during the first verse.
Talking about the track, Kneecap said: “When working on the album we had periods of great productivity but also periods with a total lack of anything creatively. Towards the end of recording we hit a proper wall and this is the result. Our mental health was being tested and we said f*ck it [if] we’re doomed to mental torture we want to have some money to get through it. We’ve had enough of it while being broke round Belfast.”
