FUGAZI
The Argument
2024 U.S. reissue
Blue Marbled vinyl

Fugazipalooza rolls on!

Sending this one out to @richardemyers , who feels this is the most UNDERRATED Fugazi record, and it’s a difficult thing to ARGUE against (pun intended).

It’s definitely the most MELODIC album they ever made. There’s certainly some hooks on this record that are bordering on pop-like, and the songs are arranged and executed in a much broader way than they’d attempted before. More sculpted and cohesive.

“Epic Problem”, “Strangelight”, “Ex-Spectator”, “Cashout”, “The Kill”… these are all amazing tunes.

If the naysayer diehards’ complaints were that it’s “too polished” or “overly pretty and melodic” or that the band was “aging out”, well…

those sound like YOU problems, dudes.

GREAT album, and definitely one of the first CLASSICS of the 2000s for me.

I miss the days when NFTs were the stupidest thing I'd ever heard of.
do you think youtube influencers have to take a dumb picture of themselves for the thumbnail every time? or do they do one big shoot where they take a bunch at once and then have an iphoto album full of them for later
i have accidentally spent the last few weeks pausing on Wax 3 and working on an iOS and macOS audio player for hi-fidelity audio formats that works with local files and SMB/NFS shares that doesn't make me cry. maybe it'll see the light of day, but maybe just for me #buildinpublic #audiophile

Launched my updated portfolio website this week, and I think some of ya'll might enjoy looking at: https://matthewskiles.com/

It's got a bunch of app icons I've probably not posted about elsewhere. And shows off a lot of my illustration, ui Icon and logo projects that definitely haven't been seen.
