The first run of singles by fucked up before the first lp and the third guitar player are amazing. I kept buying their records for too long hoping they'd be as good but they have mostly all been sold

I think Fucked Up have some amazing stuff. And I absolutely loved David Comes to Life when it came out. But have to admit that I saw they were going to be doing the anniversary show for it and I didn’t get overly excited about it. I think they might just be one of those bands I moved on from. They were fantastic at a certain time and place

Is there a decent compilation of the early stuff?

I had a look to see what that year of the pig comp was. All the b sides of the various singles,mostly covers,and mostly not very good.

And looking through the songs on those comps, epics in Minutes is way better than couple tracks

I liked how they changed up the song in various versions - just jamming different styles together.

 

[GARYXKNIFEDX]

I was already well loosing interest by that stage I think. Certainly in tetrospect

Fucked Up. I know the singer is a nice guy and pure punk fan, but holy shit if any band was hyped up from nothing it’s these guys. There are no songs there. The ultimate Vice band.

Incredible live.. and Hidden World was a brilliant album. good memories of blasting it on sites with my brother

This track in particular rocked my world

If I have the opportunity I'll almost always try to make a Fucked Up gig if they're here. But I've very little interest in listening to their records aside from that.

I'm ambivalent on most of the prominent "Fuck" bands - Fucked Up, Fuck Buttons, The Fucking Champs etc...

Holy Fuck are decent. Their last 2 albums were deadly

christ, all these fucks are confusing. Took me a while to place Holy Fuck. I used to really like them and saw them at least a couple of times. Was mixing them up with Fuck Buttons for a second, who are also decent.

What about ducky fuck and the fuck bags? Ska punk band from Bristol in the late 80s. Big influence on crystal fuck wolves and aidswank stole at least two of their riffs

Lawmower is still going good over here, the one about the iphone too. ONly got one listen so far.

Hello young lovers was my first sparks album though.

Ok, I now really like that song. It's supremely stupid, but yeah, ok there's something else going on there as well.

Arcade Fire play first pandemic concert at corporate event for cryptocurrency company

Over the weekend, Arcade Fire played their first concert of the COVID-19 pandemic at a corporate event for a cryptocurrency video game company.

[Lili Marlene]

I've seen Arcade Fire live multiple times and I still struggle to have a strong opinion on them, they're both under and overrated at the same time probably.

but all that aside, if some crypto idiots paid me a load of money to do the thing i'm doing anyway, hell yeah i'd take it.

 

[Cornu Ammonis]

I’ve only seen them once at that famous Electric Picnic performance that was the Sex Pistols at the Manchester Free Trade Hall for our generation. They were shit.
