Fucked Up - Hidden World 2LP (magenta vinyl)

F***ed Up's first release for Jade Tree is cloaked in shades of unconventional aesthetics, symbolic overtones and a self-proclaimed "culture of confusion." Hidden World, the band's first full length studio album, marks a turning point for the mysterious Toronto band, transcending the boundaries of punk with melody, aggression, expansive structures and enigmatic diatribes on what lies underneath the immediate, visualized world. F***ed Up combine confrontational ideologies with deliberate misinformation to produce a brutal analysis on thought provocative punk. In a word, F***ed Up and Hidden World is dangerous and unpredictable in a time when punk has become a manufactured commodity.
