Now to talk about the band with the best name ever. None other than your mom’s favorite: Fucked up.

This hardcore/punk band from Toronto is fast becoming one of my favorite new bands. They are extrememly busy touring, as we speak, in support of their latest album: The Chemistry of Common Life.

The album starts off with a solo flute performance, which is a little unexpected for a punk album.

The song that follows is amazing. Son the Father is one of the most energetic songs I’ve heard in a long time. Fast drums, piercing guitar, and scratchy vocals - simply beautiful.

Other songs worth a mention are: Twice Born, Black Albino Bones, and Days of Last. Each of these songs are full of raw energy.

There are however, a few lighter, instrumental songs on this album. They usually start with a clean guitar line and gradually build with textures of keyboards and vocals. Pretty interesting, and a nice change from the normal punk tracks.

If you’re interested in hardcore or punk music, you might want to check out Fucked Up. You won’t be disappointed in this album, and I’ve heard they put on a great live show as well.

Sincerely,

BW.
