Synopsis

Album Description

Fucked Up's first full-length studio album marks a turning point for the mysterious Toronto band, transcending the boundaries of punk with melody, aggression, expansive structures, and enigmatic diatribes on what lies under the immediate, visualized world. They combine confrontational ideologies with deliberate misinformation to produce a brutal analysis on thought provocative punk. "Ironically, their fast and sloppy early 80's hardcore is a million times more musical and ferocious than 99% of professional myspace-era mosh bands, and their fans' post-show cuts and bruises remind us that this shit might have the potential to still be dangerous" - Vice. For fans of The Wipers, Ramones, The Who, Negative Approach, Pink Floyd.

CD Reviews

Looking for gold? well, here you go!

Joseph Broze | chicago | 04/24/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"wow. this is totally a mix of KRAUTROCK and HARDCORE PUNK ROCK. there are a few long, drawn out songs with amazing guitar melodies coupled with ferocious vocals. in addition, there plenty of three minute punk songs greatly influenced by the Undertones, Black Flag, and plenty of other amazing bands. maybe you could call them the NEUgative Approach of CANada. or shoegaze hardcore?

not to sound critical but this band is the antidote to a good amount of musical boredom that exists currently. there is nobody around that sounds like these guys and that's a great thing! whether you are an indie rock, punk, stoner, metal, or hardcore fan, this is worth checking out! cheers to Jade Tree for taking a chance on this underground sensation.

it is also worth noting that seeing this band live will convert you. ask people who were at SXSW this year when they played with Mew or when they brough Keith Morris out for a cover of "nervous breakdown"."
