What happens when an underground punk band outgrows its insular scene? Signing to Jade Tree wasn't surprising, but Matador? Or Damian Abraham's appearance on Fox News. Or playing a 12-hour show in NYC with appearances from Moby, Vampire Weekend's Ezra Koenig, and Vivian Girls. And we thought that writing songs longer than a minute was a big jump ("Year of the Pig" clocks in at 18). Bands become a crossover success when they push boundaries; and Toronto's F*cked Up consistently does exactly that. This show is also Boystown's final (members of Charles Bronson, Daylight Robbery, and The Ponys).
