Fontaines D.C. release the duet “Where Is Gone?” featuring Rosalía. Multiple outlets describe it as a slow, atmospheric ballad with orchestral-leaning arrangements, marking a notable collaboration for the Irish band.
The song is set to appear on Fontaines D.C.’s forthcoming fifth studio album, Dopamine Chamber. Rolling Stone and Billboard frame the track as part of that upcoming album, while other coverage highlights that it is Fontaines D.C.’s first record to include a featured guest vocalist. One report quotes the band’s Carlos O’Connell on the connection between Rosalía’s work in keeping Spanish musical traditions alive and Fontaines D.C.’s own aims with Irish music. Stereogum additionally notes the timing of the release relative to Rosalía’s recent SNL performance, while other outlets focus more on the track’s sound and the album context rather than the lead-up events.
