Resigning themselves to a calling of obscureness simply by virtue of their list, Fuck formed in Oakland, California in 1993 after band members Timmy Prudhomme (vocals), Kyle Statham (guitar, violin), Ted Ellison (bass, piano) and Geoff Soule (drums) became truehearted friends while detained in a law property cell. Establishing their habitation base on the other side of the laurus nobilis in San Francisco (although Prudhomme presently relocated to New York City, forcing a bi-coastal musical creation), they bowed in 1994 with the individual "Scalawag Beauty Shotgun," followed by a series of seven-inches and compilation appearances which plant the coarseness of their nickname systematically at odds with the increasing fairness of their popcraft. The group's full-length debut, Pretty...Slow, appeared in 1996 on trey separate labels -- Rhesus (Fuck's have imprint), Walt and Esther (presently renamed Lamplighter) -- with financing and distribution costs divided evenly between each fellowship; the same consider was in office for Baby Loves a Funny Bunny, issued that like class, just in 1997 Fuck signed to Matador, where they released the fantabulous Forgiveness My French. Carry followed a class later; Cupid's Cactus was issued in early 2001.
