Fugazi - #1

I have a hard time articulating Fugazi in my mind.  To me, it's a relatively obscure band with a massive following. Punk Jam Alternative Rock that's eerily inspiring.  That's all I've got for now.  They have a documentary that was on YouTube for years but the video must have been taken down, I highly recommend it for anyone who's a serious fan of music, art or punk.


Here are a few choice clips of mine that showcase their musical talents and their stage presence as well.

Shut the Door (Live): This clip is a live performance of theirs that I think really showcases the synchronicity of the band and what people who play music are capable of.  The performance by Ian is undoubtedly extremely passionate, and there's a little bit of experimental ..."weirdness"... in the middle, but if you watch the whole thing, the end (around 6:50 on) the whole band is so in sync it's astounding.

Guilford Falls: This is a live performance with a demo track of one of their songs dubbed over.
I think it represents the spirit of the band well overall.  Guy Picciotto is ridiculous on stage sometimes.
