Throughout Fucked Up’s double-album epic Dose Your Dreams, the politics and aesthetics of hardcore are married to an “open format” approach to genre: elements of doo-wop, krautrock, groove, digital hardcore, and so much more. Perhaps no better song exemplifies this marriage than the album’s title track, which has been given the music video treatment courtesy of the band’s Mike Haliechuk and is debuting today.

PRAISE FOR DOSE YOUR DREAMS

“Fucked Up have proven themselves to be one of the most malleable and unusual bands working today.”Stereogum

“…a kind of visionary matrix through which beautiful music, in many forms—blistering punk rock, stadium alienation, twinkling club-thump, ecstatic pop shiver—comes swimming into our world.” The Atlantic

“[Dose Your Dreams] confirms that Fucked Up are bigger than the confines of punk purism, yet driven by the spirit”Spin

“It’s the most ambitious record yet by a band that’s been marked by unyielding ambition” Treble

Fucked Up’s latest opus, Dose Your Dreams, arrives everywhere worldwide on October 5, but today we reach the epic’s apex with “Accelerate.” As the lyrical centerpiece of the album, it storms in like Boredoms on a bullet train and dissolves into a digital nightmare. Our hero David finds himself exhausted and at his weakest point, and opts to render himself a bomb ready to explode due to the constant charging and prodding of the consumer lifestyle. Before David does this, he plunges to the depths of his existence one last time…

We don’t want to ruin the climax for you, so listen to the song and watch its accompanying music video directed by the group’s Mike Haliechuk, who also directed “Normal People”, premiering today on NPR and below:

The drama within Fucked Up’s incredibly anticipated Dose Your Dreams (out October 5 worldwide) unfolds like a miniature world of many parts being explored, a map being illuminated location by location. Today, the group hold a torch up to “House of Keys”, a song that further bolsters Stereogum’s assertion that “Fucked Up are still making some of the most exciting, immediate music of their career.”

LISTEN AND SHARE “HOUSE OF KEYS” HERE

“House of Keys” is the chapter in this epic where protagonist David—having been sent on a vision quest and had his eyes opened by revolutionary anarchist fighter Joyce—sees the true nature of music and art in this society, and seeks something greater. At the center of it all is Damian Abraham’s scream, the aural manifestation of David: a man chained, a man tortured, a true protagonist.
