Pink Eye took to the [Brooklyn] stage with his child on his shoulders before ripping through the recent opus David Comes to Life in its entirety. The energy comprised by this band is nearly unmatched by most other acts today. Aggressive vocals, lightning drumming, and shredding guitar blasts make up the concept masterpiece that unfolded live before the crowd tonight and just like sitting down to listen to this record (although I doubt many people remain sitting while this thing plays), the idea can be daunting. However, Fucked Up play with such precision and comradory that the monumental album seemed to go by in the blink of an eye. Aside from telling the audience to “give a thumbs up to anyone partaking in the protests”, the onstage banter was kept to a minimal, allowing…
…the brilliance of the band to shine through and through. In November 2011, we played back to back in New York City at which we tore through David Comes to Life from top to bottom with little pause for rest or reflection. It was a massive celebration spent chasing the trail of words and music we’d left for ourselves on this special LP. Caputred live in all its mass we present to you another piece of the finest blur Fucked Up can offer: David Comes to LIVE.
