Fucked Up Interview on Side B - Do They Know It's Lawsuit Time?

http://twitter.com/andPOPsideB Big Tobacco wins again... but Fucked Up doesn't seem too crushed about it. Their name was used without permission in a cigarette ad (see the scans at http://tinyurl.com/y5xf8hy ) and after a few years of legal battles, they have lost. But spirits still seem high. Ben and Sandy talked to me about the lawsuit, their Christmas single (listen at http://tinyurl.com/yz82dny ), and how they spent their hefty $20,000 Polaris Prize.

Would it be sexist to say she's hot? I don't know anymore, i'm so confused, but very considerate :)

[proverbialwhatever]

I like how at 2:33 she starts to say that she "didn't give a care", but then she maybe remembers she's in a hardcore band, and changes her wording to "give a crap" :)

@roastbeefdinner theirs plenty message in the vocals, have you read the lyrics? hell their album that made them popular is one huge story thats actually quite fun to listen in order

@mynameismark25 Weird isn't it? I mean she's no playboy girl of the month, she's not even very pretty but yeah - somehow she manages to be hot.

guys! I'll buy your records! I love you!

@mynameismark25 yes, being sexually attracted to the opposite sex is extremely sexist.

sex.

@proverbialwhatever she is just speaking how she really feels, she does not care about anyone as long as she just gets her check from the government for no reason other than taking up space. and i like this band when i don't hear the message of their vocals.
