### F.K.Ü.: Where moshers dwell

#### 20/11/09 || Lord K Philipson

This here bunch of horror-movie nerds/complete fuckos are the latest addition to the forums of GD (at least today when this review is written), and when shit like that happens you know it’s for a reason. We only deal with great and interesting bands. F.K.Ü.‘s been around for shitloads of years, performing old-school thrash metal with the best of them, but it’s just recently that they have started to get some recognition. The reason is simple, F.K.Ü. creates some fantastically fine thrash metal on all accounts with “Where moshers dwell”.

You’ll find bits and pieces from bands such as Vio-Lence, S.O.D, Testament etc, etc… but most of all you’ll hear a major Exodus influence, and you know you can’t fuck with Exodus. The Swedes, with this album, are basically the only fucken band recreating the days of old (thrash metal) that I can listen to and actually enjoy. They pull it off in such a professional manner and with such competence you can do nothing but surrender to the music presented. F.K.Ü.‘s a fucken convincing band on all accounts, playing and devoting themselves to thrash metal like there’s no tomorrow. Also, Larry Lethal’s got himself a great fucken voice for thrash metal, sounding like the lost love child of the hideous Sean Killian (Vio-Lence), Paul Baloff and Steve Souza (both from Exodus, bitch). Yep, they had a threesome and Larry was conceived. What an ugly, yet beautiful, kid.

F.K.Ü. are incorporating everything you ever loved with good ol’ thrash metal and they spice it up with a great production and their own little twist to things without ever walking off the well-paved path of thrash. There is a very noticeable passion in what F.K.Ü. are doing and I think that is why this comes across as so impressive. It feels like these guys need to play this kind of music to actually have a reason to live. The name might imply this is a joke-band (the band name fucken means Freddy Krüger’s Ünderwear, hello?) but the music says otherwise. Sure, the lyrics are silly as in “3-year old silly” and so forth (together with quite genius song titles at times… “Six Feet Ünderwear”, anyone?), but as mentioned – they manage to pull it off becoz they fucken deliver what they are set out to deliver. No matter how weird it may sound – F.K.Ü.‘s got substance.

Want an example as for how good these guys are at creating thrash metal? Just listen to “The pit and the poser”. Exodus could have fucken written that tune and that is as big a compliment as I can possibly hand out.

Try to look past the most obvious humor when it comes to F.K.Ü., simply becoz they end up an even more fantastic band if you do so. And trust me, had this been back in the mid/late 80’s when I held thrash metal in the highest regard possible (something I don’t today), F.K.Ü. would have scored something resembling a 9. But it’s not the mid/late 80’s, so…
