    "comment": "A Fenian is historically a member of a 19th-century Irish republican movement (the Fenian Brotherhood or IRB) dedicated to armed revolt against British rule, stemming from the Irish word fiann (band of warriors). It refers to Irish nationalist militants and is used as a derogatory sectarian slur against Catholics.\n\nSmugglers & Scholars’ reaches back to Ireland’s revolutionary past, but it feels rooted firmly in the now. At its core is unity.\n\nThe trio frame it around moments when working-class communities, academics and ordinary people came together in search of something better, and you can feel that collective energy running through the track.\n\nThis is not misty-eyed nostalgia. It is a reminder. The lines slice through the usual romanticised image of Ireland and swap it for something sharper and more honest. Rain-soaked streets, police Land Rovers, helicopters overhead. It’s political without preaching, bold without posturing, and it carries that fearless, unfiltered edge that Kneecap make entirely their own.  https://tinyurl.com/ymswmmvv",
