For a band that seems only intermittently active, whose members are often focused on other gigs — from podcasting to production to side projects galore — Fucked Up sure do release a lot of music. Things seemed to slow down for a while after the release of 2018’s Dose Your Dreams, their last proper album.

And now they’re ready to unveil their sixth official full-length album.

In a sense, Stephen Malkmus and Fucked Up’s Damian Abraham are the chilled-out yin and the amped-up yang of the Matador Records roster. So it only makes sense that they more or less complete each other in the context of a TV interview. Malkmus stopped by Abraham’s MuchMusic talk show The Wedge to discuss Malkmus’ [...]

Fucked Up’s next full-length, Glass Boys, isn’t due until 6/3, but the band’s latest single could almost pass for a full-length. “Year Of The Dragon,” the newest entry in the Toronto hardcore powerhouse’s Zodiac singles series, is 18 minutes long. It does a lot with those minutes too, c...
