Toronto punk band Fucked Up is celebrating their concept album David Comes To Life with a limited-edition two-LP reissue on lightbulb-yellow vinyl.
Out via Matador Records on Dec. 10, the collection will revisit a set of songs that splayed freely into unexpected instrumentation, psychedelic drift, and situationist philosophy.
Additionally, “The Truest Road,” pulled from a rarities LP that will be announced later this year. Check out “The Truest Road” here.
The compilation David’s Town – a companion to David Comes to Life, previously available only on vinyl – has also been made available on streaming for the first time ever.
Pre-order of the special edition is available here.
Following the vinyl’s release, Fucked Up plan to tour both North American coasts and the UK in January 2022 performing the album in full. The current set of dates will kick off in Ottawa, Canada on Jan. 19, trek the east coast, and then end on Feb. 22 in Detroit.
