FUGAZI: Red Medicine Vinyl LP
$44.95 AUD
Fugazi's sharpest left turn — and one of the great records of the 1990s.
Red Medicine finds the Washington D.C. institution pulling the architecture apart and rebuilding it stranger. Joe Lally's dub-inflected bass anchors songs that sprawl, lurch, and snap in equal measure, while MacKaye and Picciotto trade guitar lines as oblique as they are visceral. The album folds in clarinet, studio collage, and ambient passages without losing the gut-punch intensity — it just hits differently here. More rhythmic range, more air, more risk. Cited as a direct influence on Refused's The Shape of Punk to Come and described as a masterpiece by John Frusciante.
