Following the release of \u003cem\u003ea hAon\u003c\/em\u003e (number one) in March 2022, Cathal and Jacknife continued to work on music and completed the record at the end of Spring. Then sadly Cathal Coughlan died on May 18th.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTheir debut album \u003cem\u003ea hAon\u003c\/em\u003e was widely acclaimed by the UK and Irish press and received national radio play on 6Music, Radio X, RTE, Newstalk, and dozens of other outlets. The album playfully dissected the early days of Irish society in the TV era through a prism of electronic dance music, drawing on what they saw as a 'corrosive nostalgia'. It also paid homage to their musical heroes of the punk and post-punk era. Kraftwerk fighting with The Human League for a parking spot on Capel Street.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut amongst the muscular beats and distressed synth stabs there were also strange ballads, haunting melodies and somber reflections. \u003cem\u003ea Dó\u003c\/em\u003e continues to broaden these sonic horizons and opens up the band's output to outside collaborators. We have guest appearances from Cathal's longtime friend and Microdisney co-founder and High Llamas main man Sean O'Hagan on the first single \"Space Is Us\", Echo \u0026amp; The Bunnymen's Will Sergeant guests on two tracks, legendary Mancunians A Certain Ratio on another. The inimitable Jah Wobble also contributes bass smarts following his dub odyssey with the band on their single \"Falun Gong Dancer\" earlier this year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeo É Glór Na Teilifíse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSwinging At The Hypnodrome\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpace Is Us\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStock Photo Guy\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHare Coursing In Mayfair\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAirstrip\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Age Of Cling\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Casiotone Angelus\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStrawboy Supernova\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFeed The Light\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWe See Showbands\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Carthaginians\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCircling Over Shannon\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOn A Country Road\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Dimple Discs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40515385917555,"sku":"DEEDEE014CD","price":12.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1481\/5374\/products\/telefis-a-do.jpg?v=1665762330","url":"https:\/\/freebirdrecords.com\/products\/telefis-a-do-cd","provider":"Freebird Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
