Fontaines D.C. has announced a new album titled Dopamine Chamber, due out Oct. 16.

The upcoming record will mark the Irish band’s fifth studio album and follows their 2024 release, Romance, which featured the single “Starburster.”

Frontman Grian Chatten describes the new album as an experience built around music’s ability to affect the listener’s state of mind.

“The album itself is a dopamine chamber,” Chatten says. “You step inside and we test these different mind- or mood-altering pieces of music on you.”

The first preview of Dopamine Chamber comes with the new single “Marianne,” which is out now.

Along with the new album, Fontaines D.C. is scheduled to perform at several upcoming festivals, including Shaky Knees, Sea.Hear.Now and Ohana.
