Members
10,000 Marbles (Mike Haliechuk) - Lead guitar. Previously of Ruination, he claimed to work at a lightbulb factory in an interview with Stereogum, but in reality works for a food co-op.
Father Damian / Pink Eyes (Damian Abraham) - vocals. He has a wife, Lauren. On Saturday, February 14, 2009 at the early Chicago AV-aerie show Damian let the audience know that he and Lauren were expecting a child. The child, a boy named Holden, was born in summer 2009. The couple appeared on a reality television show called Newly Wed, Nearly Dead.
Mustard Gas (Sandy Miranda) - Bass guitar, vocals. Full time Bass guitar player. Part time photographer.
Concentration Camp / Gulag (Josh Zucker) - Rhythm guitar. Zucker is a transient who was chosen as the original frontman for Fucked Up due to his confrontational manner but is now the band's guitarist.
Guinea Beat / Mr. Jo (Jonah Falco) - drums. Falco splits his time between playing drums for Fucked Up and playing guitar for Career Suicide, as well as being a full time student. He has had to keep the existence of Fucked Up a secret from his family, with whom he lives, after his father declared the band's name "made him want to vomit."
Young Governor / Bad Kid / Lil' Bitey During the last half of 2007, Cook played many of Fucked Up's concerts as a third guitar player, and has done some songwriting, contributing to the "David Christmas" single. He plays on The Chemistry of Common Life and has toured with the band all of 2008. He provides backing vocals during live sets in addition to his guitar work. He is a former vocalist of No Warning.
David Eliade - Visuals, spiritual and political guidance. Eliade is the "fifth Beatle", so to speak, and manages Fucked Up from behind the scenes. He has designed their logo, records, and influenced most of their lyrics. Eliade has coordinated most of their interviews, except for those conducted live on the road. He has begun taking a more visible role, acting as management for the band of late and working with them in the studio on the production of their forthcoming LP. He is the one who taught Haliechuk to garden and Camp to hop trains. He is the only person involved with the band who knows how to tune a guitar. Unfortunately he has never attended one of Fucked Up's live shows. It has been stated that David's name is a pseudonym. He shares his last taken name with Romanian writer Mircea Eliade, who is mentioned in the Hidden World booklet. He is a fictional character.
