Overview

  • The new single, produced by DJ Sub Focus, directly references the case against rapper Mo Chara and the group’s criticism of the British state.
  • 'No Comment' uses Banksy’s Royal Courts of Justice mural as its cover art, which was removed from the site and was cleared for use according to the band’s label.
  • Mo Chara’s terrorism charge tied to an alleged 2024 London incident was thrown out in September on a technicality in how the case was brought.
  • The Crown Prosecution Service has said it will appeal the dismissal, while Mo Chara has publicly signaled he is considering legal action against the state.
  • A limited 7-inch arrives January 30 via Heavenly with Get Your Brits Out on the B-side, as Kneecap continue a sold-out UK and Ireland tour.
