I mainly like later Fugazi, from Red Medicine onward. I love The Argument. 13 Songs is great, but Repeater sounds like an inferior Gang of Four album to me, and everything else from that era isn't much better.

Fugazi albums are sorely in need of a remaster. If they were ever even mastered in the first place? The Argument is the only one that sounds mastered. What was the problem mastering isn't DIY?

My 13 Songs, is remastered...

I rented Instrument through Netflix the other week and it was awesome. I at the moment only have 13 Songs, Red Medicine, End Hits and The Argument but they are all amazing. (Red Medicine and Argument are maybe my two favorite cds ever). They are one of those rare bands that has created an energy all their own and the fact that they didn't all underground and on their own label just makes me respect them more than any nationally know n band out there. Quickly becoming my favorite band of all-time. Also by the impression I got from Instrument they kick serious live. If only I could have seen them... :cry:

Fugazi is incredible.

13 Songs, Repeater+3, Steady Diet of Nothing, and In On the Kill Taker have all been remastered.

I think it's a killer album, w/ one of Fugazi's best instrumentals; and In On the Kill Taker is just as good, if not better in my opinion. The latter as well as the Argument are the two most underrated Fugazi albums. I recently purchased Red Medicine, and am really impressed w/ it so far; I've only listened to it twice, and it's been a few weeks since my last listen, but it will soon be back in the rotation.

I haven't seen it yet, I think you have inspired me to check it out... They are awesome live. I saw them back in 2002 at the Ft. Reno shows in DC (they're free concerts in a park in DC every summer, normally many discord bands play there and it's free of charge. So if you kiddies visit DC this summer be sure to check it out) it was amazing!!!! The energy they have live is rivaled by very few; bands like the Who in their hey day come to mind....

My copy of 13 songs doesn't have a mastering credit on it and doesn't sound mastered. I would suggest these reissues should be called mastered versions rather than remastered versions!
