Get Fucked is the second studio album by Australian punk rock band the Chats. The album was recorded in six days in Brisbane and released on 19 August 2022 through the band's own label, Bargain Bin. It is their first album to feature Josh Hardy on guitar, following the departure of Josh Price in 2020. Praised for being "loaded with more instantly quotable Aussie idioms", the album lyrically explores elements of Australian culture while also "tapping into universal anxieties" including inflation and "racism in surf culture". Get Fucked was preceded by four singles – "Struck by Lightning", "6L GTR", "I've Been Drunk in Every Pub in Brisbane" and "Out on the Street". The album debuted at number 2 on the ARIA Albums Chart and number 3 on the UK Independent Albums Chart, also charting in Germany and Scotland. At the 2022 ARIA Music Awards, it won the Best Hard Rock or Heavy Metal Album. In September 2022, the band embarked on the nationwide Get Fucked Tour to support the album.
Chats rule, ok? Favorite tracks: "Paid Late", "Panic Attack", "6L GTR"
Punk is not dead. These fuckers did definitely prove that. Short and heavy, as it should be
I'm surprised I haven't heard more Australian punk. Australian culture sort of seems like it is made for punk. In any case, this is awesome. Good, straight ahead punk. 4 stars.
Yeah, that's punk. I tend to feel like this genre said pretty much what it had to say forty-plus years ago. Still this had plenty of good-naturedly aggressive goofball energy and as usually with punk it keeps everything brief and to the point.
Rating: 9/10 Best songs: Boggo breakout, Struck by Lightning, Panic attack, The price of smokes
This was nearly an instant 5 stars just from the album cover and the album name. But then I listened to it. And it was still a 5 star album. If you name a song "I've Been Drunk in Every Pub in Brisbane" then you have my heart forever
Absolutely solid punk album that I never would’ve run into if not for this wonderful place of people sharing tunes. This is what it’s all about …looking at you, user who submitted that Chappell Roan album
Punk rock, pub rock. Recuerdan a Los Ramones, Bad Religion... Vinilo, va.
Faith in humanity restored, at least a little bit
REALLY wanted to give this a 5, just because I loved it so much, but man, I give out 5s only to all-time-greats and while this is awesome, it's no ATG. 4.5/5, but rounding to 4. Cool as hell.
Well this is curious: it sounds like 1980 but was released in 2022. (An album from 1980 copying the radical sound of 42 years before would have been early big band). So is it deliberately retro ? Pastiche ? It’s good, it’s great fun and full of energy. But….maybe derivative?
This was a refreshingly pure punk rock album. Just half an hour of energetically complaining about whatever mundane shit annoys these guys in their daily lives.
A proper punk LP that shows up, says its piece, and then leaves before you've had a chance to blink. Not sure what they're smoking down in Australia nowadays, but it's led to some of the best and most innovative music in the indie scene this past decade.
Great punk/garage rock album. No nonsense uptempo and energetic. Especially “6L GTR” is a fantastic start of the album.
A catchy, concise punk album that takes me back a few decade despite its relative new-ness. To my surprise I liked it!
This hit just right today.
Scientifically proven, you can't get more Australian than this before imploding into a black hole. 4/5
A little bit of speed and excitement in the songs but with great energy. Perhaps what is a bit disappointing is that the whole album could be just one song because they practically sound the same. However, it is appreciated that it does not take up much time and thus avoids being annoying... oh, and they have a chorus dedicated to Superman.
I love a short and (not at all) sweet punk album, all muscle and no fat. This one delivers in that regard, full tilt. My one personal thing is that I find Eamon Sandwith's voice to be a bit grating, but that's a minor complaint. And this doesn't particularly tread new ground, but eh who cares? Great to see some legit punks keeping the faith in the 2020s. Fave Songs: The Price of Smokes, Boggo Breakout, Getting Better, Struck by Lightning, 6L GTR, Out on the Street
I love me some punk.
Get fucked cunt
Awfully rude of them to insult me before even listening. This modern punk rock band makes music that thrashes and is a force of music. Overall it’s nothing I really care to listen to but their punk sound is pretty decent. 4.4/10
You know what can *actually* get fucked? These guys and their whole vibe. Talk about a pack of tryhards. You aren't doing anything that hasn't been done a million times already, by people who did it a million times better. ha ha, servo pies and backyard cricket!! ha ha, what comedy! So, yeah... get fucked, I guess. 1/5.
Guess I got fucked, cause this is not availible on Spotify anymore... Wait, yes it is! Guess the link is broke 3 1
