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. But since last year the Toronto hardcore heroes have kicked out Year Of The Horse, a gargantuan “EP” at double-LP length, as part of their long-running zodiac series, and followed it with the formidable noise-rock EP Oberon. And now they’re ready to unveil their sixth official full-length album.

As mentioned on multiple occasions, David Comes To Life is a great album — one of the year’s best — and a more-than-decent “Rock Opera.” Read up on the characters and storyline while you stream the entire thing at NPR. David Comes To Life is out 6/7 via Matador.

On their excellent, highly listenable “rock opera” David Comes To Life, Fucked Up continue to expand and add layers while remaining true to their original core. Outside the sound, I like that since their beginning they’ve meshed fact, myth, and quasi-fiction into an overall conceptual arc — see, for instan...

Fucked Up’s released the second of four digital singles from their forthcoming 18-song “rock opera” David Comes To Life. It’s a bit more FU-like than the Brit Pop-influenced (and totally enjoyable) first single, “The Other Shoe.” This one works, too. Listen:Fucked Up – ...
