The Fucks - E.P. One

A Brief History of The Fucks:

Identical twins George and Jemma started their career as a trapeze act, touring mostly Grays Thurrock and the less fashionable areas of Czechoslovakia.
In an unsupervised Open University experiment, Jemma tragically became semi muto-morphed with a mini wig for mice with Alopecia.
Unperturbed, for months they struggled on but were fired in favour of a Moorhen.
George’s sight began to fail after years of semi boredom and Night Nurse abuse, triggered by an incident involving a woman’s breast milk. Conifer trees did nothing to help the situation and caused the eventual demise of the so-called and self styled 'Christmas Spirit'.
Jemma’s foray into the world of lap dancing was brief and singular. The fast food industry was still discriminatory concerning semi nude mouse morphlets. And so alternate sources of income needed to be found.
With no lower to be sunk, they were forced to face the inevitable and find their grubby foothold on the slippery steps of the staircase called music.

Freedom is a good thing


Reviews:

F*cks - EP One
by F*cks on Angular Records
Release date: 15th November 2004 Hailing from London via art school, Fucks are the White Stripes on casio keyboards, really cheap guitars with even more pained, Queen-like karaoke wailing. And if that wasn't enough, they've even nabbed The Strokes' drum machine.
Name-checking cups of tea, biscuits and the Daily Mail, opener, 'Freedom Is A Good Thing' is thankfully only as political as Sleeper and they are just as funny. Whippet beats, buzz fuzz bass and the best comedy falsetto since Damon Albarn tried singing 'Waterloo Sunset' with Ray Davis on the telly lead into the wrecked conga of 'I Love New York'. This minimalist bontempi magic extends to all six tracks, but the true gem must surely be the Fucksed up version of 'Mad World'. It's even better than the line: "I wanna be like Michael Jackson/I gotta small cock I can't get no action", from 'I Don't Like It'.

EP One is the record Kid A would have been if Thom Yorke smoked like 50 Cent and shagged girls with dodgy piercings. But don't let that put you off, because it's an unwitting masterpiece. Get there before the style press maul 'em.
