The F.U.’s were an early-mid 80’s Boston Hardcore punk band consisting of John Sox, 

Steve Grimes, Bob Furapples (Robert Hatfield), and Wayne Maestri. They took their 

name from a comment Wendy O. Williams made in an interview in which she said something 

to the effect that “Punk rock is a way of saying ‘F you’ to society.” 

They played fast, snotty thrash/hardcore, although like many ’80s hardcore bands 

(and especially Boston hardcore bands), they later switched to a more hard rock/heavy metal sound

Classic first-wave hardcore punk from Boston, the F.U.'s' debut release (after appearing 

on the seminal This Is Boston, Not L.A. compilation), Kill for Christ, is a thrashy, 

amateurish rattle that works thanks to the band's reckless enthusiasm. 

With caffeine-overdose tempos that nearly collapse on every track, ultracheap static buzz 

production, and cigarette-hoarse mob choruses, Kill for Christ could be considered 

a textbook case of hardcore America 1983, right down to the Pushead artwork on the cover 

(a bluntly blasphemous rendering of Jesus as a cigar-chomping machine-gun killer). 

The F.U.'s are angry punks, but behind their stiff beats and petulant riffs is plenty 

of snotty exuberance, a barely concealed joy that proves that the band is rocking 

as much for fun as for revolution...(AllMusic)
