Fugazi - The Argument

Glad to see this included, being that it was the last and only Fugazi record released this century and it doesn't hurt that it's really good.

Some days it's my favorite Fugazi.

I could see myself pushing 1 or more of these through if given a shot. I'm kind of surprised that Blessing and a Curse made it before Brighter.

No, it's already up there. The original LCD is what I mean.

no, that's his second one (and already nominated), which is nowhere near as good as his first s/t one.

I think I've forgotten how good that was because of how bad all their other albums have been.
