Album Review: Fucked Up - David Comes to Life

Punk rock is generally displayed in short and abrupt bursts of impassioned sound, rarely hanging around long enough to tax the patience and endurance of the listener. Canada’s Fucked Up have never been known to play by the rules and their latest album, David Comes To Life, is yet another bizarre milestone in their already unusual career. When your handle is as confrontational as ‘Fucked Up’ then what about you is going to be conventional anyway? David is a concept album presented as a 77 minute marathon (twice the length of many other punk albums) divided into four thematic acts. Story aside the music is pure punk angst; filled with roaring guitars, brutishly tactless vocals, and acidic intent. By the end of it you feel positively corrosive.
