Fugazi | |
| Fugazi (Music) | comment |
A Post-Hardcore band created in 1987 by Hardcore Godfather and Minor Threat veteran Ian MacKaye (vocals/guitar), Joe Lally (bass), and former Rites of Spring members Guy Picciotto (vocals/guitar) and Brendan Canty (drums). With an anti-corporate stance, cheap concerts for all ages, and heavy, rhythmic music, they released six studio albums (all on MacKaye's indie label Dischord) and held heart-pumping performances. They are one of the most important underground bands of the 1990s; their third album, In on the Kill Taker, made the Billboard 200 chart (peaking at #153), a rarity for an indie release. In 2003, the band called an indefinite hiatus, having been together for 16 years.The name Fugazi originates from an acronym used by Vietnam veterans to signify “F’d up, Got Ambushed, Zipped In (a body bag).”Dischord Records' website has created the Fugazi Live Series with the aim to "create a complete archive of the Fugazi live experience and to make these recordings available" to anyone. Over 800 shows are available for download, most recorded in high-quality, and for US$5 each. | |

Protest Song: Too many to count. Their most political albums are Steady Diet of Nothing and The Argument. Anti-Police Song: “Great Cop” from In on the Kill Taker. | |

Face on the Cover | |
| Fugazi (Music) / int_1f37a427 | comment |
Face on the Cover: Repeater and the self-titled and 3 Songs EPs all have photos taken from live performances on the covers. Other albums either don't have anyone on the cover at all or take a more artistic approach to this: For instance, Red Medicine includes a group photo on the cover, but it's not immediately noticeable as such because it's oriented upside down, out of focus, and depicts the band swimming, up to their necks in the ocean. | |

| Fugazi (Music) / int_51f90774 | comment |
Step Up to the Microphone: Fugazi is one of the rare bands that has two lead vocalists, but starting from Red Medicine until The Argument, Lally sings at least one song on each album. | |

Four More Measures | |
| Fugazi (Music) / int_b2dec175 | comment |
Four More Measures: A variation in the instrumental "Brendan #1", where the guitar "chorus" comes in later than would be expected. The song begins with eight measures of Brendan and Joe's drum-and-bass interplay... and then eight more. | |

Indecipherable Lyrics | |
| Fugazi (Music) / int_bb225804 | comment |
Indecipherable Lyrics: Many examples with Guy Picciotto on vocals. “Latin Roots” sounds like he’s singing, “It’s time to meet Jamaicans.” Or the beginning of “No Exit”, with what sounds like “exuta” when he’s supposed to say “exeunt”. Also, what the heck is he singing on “Hello Morning”? Good thing their albums come with a lyric sheet. | |

Shout-Out | |

Shout-Out: The title of Steady Diet of Nothing comes from late comedian Bill Hicks. Also, the song "Cassavetes" is, unsurprisingly, about the famous indie filmmaker, John Cassavetes. It also name drops Gena Rowlands. | |

Noise Rock | |
| Fugazi (Music) / int_d4917d5a | comment |
Noise Rock: The beginning of the song “Do You Like Me” has a 51 second noise intro, and then immediately becomes more Fugazi-like when the drums kick in. | |

In the Style of: "Version" is a dub-influenced instrumental remix of "Long Distance Runner", with the vocal melody replaced with a jazzy clarinet solo by Guy. Interestingly, "Version" actually comes a few songs before "Long Distance Runner" on Red Medicine. | |

Surprisingly Gentle Song | |
| Fugazi (Music) / int_ea454c4a | comment |
Surprisingly Gentle Song: Among all that rocking, there are many examples of this trope. Usually their instrumentals are this, or if Joe Lally sings. "Sweet and Low" and "The Kill" are good examples. "I'm So Tired", from the rarities compilation/rockumentary soundtrack album Instrument Soundtrack - notable for being performed entirely by Ian on piano and vocals. | |

Harsh Vocals: Most of the time, Ian MacKaye yells/growls when signing, and Guy Picciotto can be abrasive vocally, but often sings softer. Joe Lally’s singing style is very subdued (a nice contrast). | |
