Toronto punk vets Fcked Up released a new single today called “Year of the Tiger.” The fifteen-and-a-half minute epic is the latest in a series of singles celebrating the Chinese New Year, and a portion of the proceeds will benefit Save The Tiger. The band have said that it’s “honestly one of the best things we’ve ever done.” We couldn’t have said it better ourselves. Stream the single below, along with their other four Zodiac-themed singles.

The band’s latest album, the critically-revered David Comes To Life, is out now.
