Could it be true? Spinner has the interview to prove it, Damian Abraham may be quitting his band Fucked up, at least he is thinking about it. This is what he declared to the website, and he was pretty talkative about it:
‘I don't want to say I've been teasing it, in a way, but I've been talking about it a lot because I don't want to take away these five other people's livelihoods.’
Damian is concerned about the touring, as it seems to weigh a heavy load on him, but he feels obligated for the other band members:
‘I can't tour anymore, I don't want to take that away from them, so I would love to find a way to basically make it into a constantly evolving thing where sometimes Fucked Up can go on tour and other times, it's another band involved with us.’
‘I have no idea how it's all going to work out, I know we're going to take this long break and hopefully we can think about it and figure it out a little more.
‘It's weird because it's not like you're working a job where you don't like it anymore and you want to move on for whatever reason — it's not just you, it's five other people who are also working at the same job.’
Another band would mean the side projects of the different band members, or even Fucked up sans Damian? It would certainly not be the same band, I mean I saw them, no offense to the other band members but he is Fucked up!
Even his last tour with Wavves, does not seem to have been the fun we could have imagined:
‘It wasn't the most fun I've ever had on tour, I was kind of melting down, mentally, on that tour but every time I was hanging out with those guys, it was fantastic.’
‘I can be weirdly lonely even though you're surrounded by these five other people, but we've been together now 10 years and there's not a lot left to talk about.’
‘It messes with your head after a while, and I think that's why we need this break. Me especially though, I'm the one losing it the most by far.’
Wow, a good thing I was able to catch them this summer, Fucked up may be soon over.
