No, Fu haven't lost their love for all things guitar-, surf- and skate-driven. And titles like "Squash That Fly," "Mongoose," and "The Wasteoid" make clear that the band's tunes are still as irreverent as their playing is heavy, and that their vibe is pure SoCal. But a decade into their career, Fu's attitude and sonic approach have changed. The heavy guitars still erupt (though not always blanketed by the band's previously ubiquitous fuzz), and the rhythm section still jackhammers away, but their sonic blasts are often shot with refreshingly hooky melodies.
