Are Fucked Up a good band?

02.21.2008, 05:22 AM

I read yesterday something about their new 12" ''Year Of The Pig'' and thought that I might like them. Does anyone know them and are they any good? At the moment i can't play music at work until later so I can't listen to their myspace.

they are ok. i have something somewhere by em that i listened to once and raised an eyebrow slightly...i havent listened to it again and actually dont really know where it is at the moment!

competent hardcore-ish punk. a good listen but hardly essential in my opinion.

their label, www.jadetree.com might have an mp3 or two if you can download those (as opposed to myspace).

lies!

i have one of their records, hidden world, at their worst they are a shitty integrity tribute band, at their best they are a integ tribute band who manage to play hardcore at hardcore speed in inexplicable 15 min songs. so half their stuff is pseudo-good.

02.22.2008, 03:44 AM

I still haven't heard a single thing by them. Thanks for all your opinions.

i haven't listened to integrity in so long. i have their 7 inch of septic death covers.

krastian · 02.22.2008, 02:31 PM

I love me some early Integrity.

batreleaser · 02.22.2008, 07:42 PM

yeah integrity is definitley a cool band. they definitley helped usher in a new, much less powerful, movement of hardcore, converge, botch, dillinger, colaesce, etc.. all excellent bands, and all bands who know that punk rock died a long time ago and it aint never coming back, so they just use hardcore as a backdrop and make it something else compleltey different. i have no idea what i just said. i need a coffee.
