Fucked Up wins music award

It is not only Roskilde Festival that has an eye on the Canadian hardcore punks.

Bands along the lines of Fucked Up do not suit every taste. The unrestrained stage shows, the half-naked, unpredictable lead singer. Yet, Roskilde Festival was in doubt that Fucked Up had a spot on the 2009 festival poster.

And our enthusiasm is shared. Fucked Up has just won the coveted, Canadian Polaris Music Prize – in front of much more reliable fellow countrymen such as Metric and Great Lake Swimmers.

We congratulate the uncompromising band with the recognition from the Parnassus – and say thanks for an excellent concert this summer.
