Polaris: Announced

I'm not gonna say that I called it, but well... you all had fair warning.

This is what Fucked Up, winner of the 2009 Polaris Music Prize and recipients of $20,000.00 are going to do with their cash:
There were over 500 missing aboriginal women in Canada and we're going to put out a benefit record to try to draw attention to it and raise some money for these people," he said. "It's a marginalized group, it's a racialized crime, it's ignored. So we're putting out a benefit Christmas record with some really funny guests and we're gonna pay for it.

Just like they said... Punk, but with emotion, you dig?
