Fucked Up announce release date

Fucked Up have announced that their new album "David Comes To Life" will be released on June 7 through Matador Records.

The new record is reportedly a rock opera set in a fictional British town during the Thatcher administration.

The band's front man Damian Abraham recently discussed the record with Pitchfork:

"It's about a guy, David, who works at a light bulb factory. He falls in love with this activist. She subsequently dies during an accident. You never really find out what the accident is because we couldn't think of it [laughs]. Then David's on trial. There's this prosecutor who was secretly in love with the activist but is also aware that he's in a play. Then it gets really heady and drugged-out."

Fucked Up were recently in the country as a part of the Soundwave Festival.
