Fucked Up Sign to Matador, Prep Album for October Release, Tour Canada and Beyond

When they're not getting kicked out of rural liberal arts colleges, Toronto punkers Fucked Up have been working (no doubt ‘around the clock’) with Matador Records to prepare for the October 7 release of their forthcoming album, The Chemistry Of Common Life.

According to Matador's blog, FU guitarist "10,000 Marbles" describes the album's subject matter as “basically about rebirth and the Sun. And lightning.” Further, the album will showcase "10-15 guitar tracks on many songs, along with flutes, organs, and French horn." FURTHER, guests include Katie Stelmanis and the Vivian Girls on vocals and Max McCabe-Locos (from The Deadly Snakes) on organ.

Keep updated with Fucked Up in all its random glory at band blog, Looking for Gold. Interested parties can even download a full copy of the band's new disc (the very one repped above) here.... PSYCH! It'll be at least a month before you can download the leak of that.
