Supports Announced For F*cked Up's New Zealand Shows

Canada's Fucked Up are hitting Aotearoa next week for a pair of hugely anticipated headline events, and today have revealed local supports for both their Auckland and Wellington shows. Joining Fucked Up in Tāmaki Makaurau are Hamilton punk dynamos Contenders (who made the crowd go crazy at Saturday's show at The Vault), while the Pōneke event will feature the hard-hitting double punch of Ayn Randy and DAFM. The innovative and prolific Canadian crew fronted by the unstoppable Damian Abraham are a live force to be experienced firsthand, catch them touring their latest album Dose Your Dreams at Whammy Bar and San Fran in October...

Press release:

It's live where one can truly see that Fucked Up are one of the most momentous, heavy lifting acts around. Part of the discovery is that such a ferocious wave of sound and relentless energy comes from a band that, once you get past the sight of their frantic and often shirtless frontman, could easily pass for a handful of well-mannered uni-students. The other part is that aforementioned charismatic and hirsute frontman Damian Abraham is known for his penchant for crowd surfing and headbutting things. Anything actually: Beer glasses, microphones, walls, MTV Bathrooms and more and is often seen leaving the stage covered in his own blood.

Chicks that Scream invite you to enjoy one of their bucket-list bands this October with two very special New Zealand shows from one of the best free-thinking bands to emerge from the punk rock underground.
