Fugazi - 13 Songs
 
If someone told you they counted 13 Songs as an album and ranked it far and away as the best Fugazi album, what would you think?

Conversely, if someone ranked 13 Songs last, what would you think?

Also how would you rank the Fugazi albums, if you wanna

Severian 01.26.2021 08:00 PM

lol i hate u guys

Uff, spare a moment for those posting personal art/creation to the largely ignored sticky thread abyss.

Fugazi: Everything wrong in the known universe is contained within this bands music i.e. Funk. I wanted to say this yesterday but didn't want to get the thread off to a negative start. lel

Probably not the consensus around here, but I’ve always found the music of this band to be the equivalent of being thrown a week old bagel after crossing the Sahara on foot.

Sounds like you're saying you'll em because there's nothing better to have. After all that walking I'd LOVE a week old bagel.

I guess that’s what they call a reframe.

Severian 01.27.2021 08:44 AM

Fugazi’s great, but this was dumb. Bad, dumb severian.

Anyway, 13 Songs is probably near the back end of I had to rank their discography and was counting it as an album.

Toilet & Bowels 01.27.2021 05:48 PM

I like 2 of their albums a lot and none of the others at all. Live I found them disappointing. And their tour movie is really dull.

None of that is as bad as the opera made entirely from the between song chat of fugazi live shows.

Anyway Fugazi has like 4 perfect albums

GeneticKiss 01.31.2021 12:55 AM

I would think they have good taste in music and leave it at that, because semantics in art is dumb.

Severian 01.31.2021 09:04 AM

This has been singularly unhelpful

Genteel Death 02.02.2021 04:46 PM

I like maybe three or four songs. Respect them as a band but can't really say I care about them. Sorry, can't help much.

Screaming Skull 02.03.2021 05:26 PM

I'm shocked by the apathy on display here. Perhaps we should rank Haim's discography? Anyway, I'll play. Fugazi classics:

1. Red Medicine
2. Repeater
3. The Argument
4. In On The Kill Taker

Still incredibly solid...

5. 13 Songs
6. Steady Diet of Nothing

The rest...

7. End Hits
8. Instrument Soundtrack

What do you think their 4 perfect albums are?

I think Argument, End Hits, Red Medicine and In On the Kill Taker are all pretty goddamn perfect. Actually, Repeater as well. So that’s 5.

Ranking:
1. Argument
2. End Hits
3. In on the Kill Taker
4. Red Medicine
5. Repeater
6. Steady Diet of Nothing

The rest:
13 Songs (excellent but not an album, technically)
Instrument (despite being a soundtrack and demo compilation, this thing Fucking cranks and I love it.)

All excellent.
Probably ranks among my favorite discographies ever, because there are truly no bad or even mediocre projects here.

To be fair, it would be hard to distinguish which band is funkier

Rob Instigator 02.04.2021 03:06 PM

Fugazi rules. They have like 4 PERFECT albums and I count 12 songs as one.

Damn, that’s cool. They’re one of the few bands on my “hey this band is a band I’ve loved for most of my life” list that I never was able to see.

:(

For a guy who seemingly likes about three bands and that's it this surprises me.
