Pitchfork is reporting that Pink Eyes and the rest of the Fucked Up crew have won the Polaris Music Prize and the $20,000 that comes with it. The band wasn't expect a W, they were just happy about the free Ipod, and from what I've been reading it has apparently shocked a few around the web, as well. Did they not listen to The Chemistry of Common Life (the album they won for)? That record is like a hardcore epiphany, "What? We can also be melodic?" Congrats, guys!
Also, in case you were wondering, they were up against Metric, Great Lakes Swimmers, and Malajube.
