What is FAKKER!? FAKKER! is, more than anything, an attitude. FAKKER! is a feeling. FAKKER! is a lifestyle. We are a revolution of our hearts, we are middle fingers shown to lies and hypocrisy. We don’t take any props and we fire a thunderstorm of anarchy into the official chart of shallow dance pop music. We are midnight harlequins, made up mannequins, artsy losers and winners all at once, we are an atomic bomb in minds of those who live only for money. We are a message of honesty, a voice of Dionysiac poets of love and uncrowned kings of varieté cracks as well as prima ballerinas among lost generation of alchemysts of wasted chances. We are a blistering critique in the system, an error in machines that ought to program us, we are Route 66 of freedom of speech, missionaries of political incorrectness with our view spitted in the face of haters. Me and you, we both together against the world. We stand proud and we‘re raising our fists with FAKKER! against everyone who’d try to f*ck with us.
