Free Music Notes for 13 Songs
Free Music Review: excellent
Hit: 4 Stars
Even at its most stripped, Fuguzi's music offers far more layers and dynamics than most rock bands, never mind hardcore bands.
This group are masters at craft, and have the rare ability to work the most amazing hooks into what APPEARS, to the uninitiated, to be basic music. There is always a small percussive noise, a hand scraping over guitar strings, a bullit of well planned feedback that addse mountians of texture to what is labeled, unrevealingly, punk or hardcore.
Fuguzi are, if nothing else, masters of the studio and master presenters of their music. Listen to the bent guitar on "Suggestion," the little wood tapping on the first track, or the clarity of the cymbals, bass, or any other divice this amazing group throws into their music.
And it is the RECORDING. Most hardcore music is upfront and flat. Fugazi place the mics back, and sound as if they are recoding in a huge room. They must spend hours getting everything in the right place to get the depth that pays off so well. There is a lot, always, going on in this music, and you hear everything, bell clear.
This would be a classic album were it not for Kill Taker and End Hits and their subsaquent work, which brilliantly exploits the sonic bluebrints the band lays out on 13 Songs.
13 Songs Poster
Gang of Four went disco, Mission of Burma went deaf--and the Clash? Well, the Clash just went, but Fugazi have managed to escape the pitfalls that befell their predecessors. In fact, the Washington D.C. band formed by Minor Threat's Ian MacKaye and Insurrection's Guy Piccotto may well have become the world's most reliable source of no-sellout noise-pop. 13 Songs brings together the two 1989 EPs that first introduced the group's unique hybrid of hardcore, funk, and art-rock. And while Fugazi's music has since grown in sophistication, fan favorites such as "Waiting Room" and "Margin Walker" are early indicators that something decent can come out of our nation's capital. --Bill FormanAlternative Rock Music CDs
