New York natives WHEATUS make their defiant return with the release of SUCK FONY. As the title suggests, this alternative rock/pop band defies convention of what can and can’t be done and just does it. Writing songs that are a perfect mix of pop hook lines, joyous sub-metal guitars and acerbic, irony-laden lyrics, WHEATUS sneaks into your subconscious with instant classics that transcend fashion and favour such as their million seller ‘Teenage Dirtbag’. With a clever new title and 2 new tracks, SUCK FONY is a repackaged, retitled and revitalized version of their ill-fated second album but this time WHEATUS is in control and celebrating their new found freedom from their former label. As the first release on the band’s own Montauk Mantis label, SUCK FONY raises a middle finger to the world of corporate music. SUCK FONY will be released in the US as a strictly Limited Edition CD Album on Valentine’s Day, 2005 via the band’s website www.wheatus.com.
