F.K.\u00dc. at GRF 2011<\/p><\/div>\n

I had never heard of F.K.\u00dc. before the Getaway Rock Festival<\/a>. In fact, I would have skipped them altogether (as they were playing in the hot, indoor area) had a new, Facebook friend I met at the festival not recommend I see them. <\/p>\n

He said, “You are looking forward to F.K.\u00dc., right?” <\/p>\n

I replied, “Who is F.K.\u00dc.?” <\/p>\n

“You know, Freddy Krueger’s Underwear.” <\/p>\n

I thought I heard him incorrectly given that English wasn’t his first language, but actually I heard him just fine. He told me they were old-school thrashers, moshers really, with a classic horror movie twist. Notice the “guest singer” in the first photo. Various characters from horror films trotted out on stage from time to time.<\/p>\n

F.K.\u00dc. sounded like fun, and they were.<\/p>\n
