Have you tried it over your favorite browser!?

Man, this is so good.

It's made me fully realize that Fugazi are like the Beatles for me, in the sense that I will happily listen to anything they recorded. I just get excited hearing the sound of the instruments and their chemistry. It's not even critical for me anymore--just thrilled it exists.

Listened to part of the album while my daughter was in ballet, and I thought some of it sounded totally great, fine, awesome. "Instrument" sounded fucking killer. The beginning of "Returning the Screw" sounded monumental.

I made a tofu scramble for breakfast, that's how much this record has moved me. Ordered some of the Lungfish represses from Dischord (they got the Skewbald 7" back in stock too ps).

This band is so important to me. Man. Can't believe Steve is gone.

I'm sure those recordings sound amazing, but I don't want to listen to "new" versions of songs I adore. Because of a strange mix of lazyness and oldmanyellsatcloudness.

I think I remember reading that Albini himself said the final Niceley product was indeed "better", though I might be wrong.

Think of this as a very well recorded Peel Session and you’re golden.

i'm guessing that is the issue.
it won't let me log in for some reason. confirmation email not getting thru.

Sorry, but I vastly prefer Steve’s version. Honestly feel that if they released this one Fugazi would have had a much bigger impact on me at the time.

Pretty sure I blew out my ears today listening to it on a loop at max volume.

I love this. NC.

Agree - the noisier guitars float my boat and the scuzziness of the vocal I like as well. The one thing that always kinda piqued me about Fugazi was that the recorded albums sounded very clinical and kinda polite - there was never a feeling of full delivery (to me at least). I totally get it that they had moved beyond and wanted to provide something different to yelling and screaming, but the songs on record never delivered the tension and grunt I was after. Saw them live many times and THAT was where they delivered. The only record of theirs I ever reach for these days is The Argument…

The vocals on this one sound great! Guy’s particularly.

The guitars, good god. It’s a different album for me as of today. Love it.

Got to listen to it on the good stereo yesterday and beyond the initial excitement found it a little off putting. Too many not quite worked out arrangement and vocal details that I’m surprised made it past the moment. And while the bigness or raunchiness that others pointed out are true, they don’t serve the sound like they would a noise rock band or whatever. Brendan’s playing is too busy/uptempo for huge roomy drums. Bass sounds like mush, as noted. I don’t think I’ll listen to it again.

It did get me to relisten to some of the later albums which still rule, of course.
