{"product_id":"718751799011","title":"Fugazi \"Red Medicine\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eFugazi are as notable for their 'political music for the common man' approach as for the stop-start riffing that made their guitars-and-gestalt-therapy sound into an industry buzz. Their 1995 album, 'Red Medicine' reasserts the band's grasp on alterna-angst and charging guitars - enough so to make your jaws lock. Yet, 'Red Medicine' isn't just another exercise in Fugazi-style political manifestos; on it, Fugazi come across more as musicians than politicians. The yelping \"I Have Something to Prove\" tone of previous releases has relaxed into a more confident approach. The dueling guitars are looser, more melodic. The riffs and vocals don't bark and grate as much - they simmer and, in some cases, even swing. Songs like 'Birthday Party' may still rely on the old-school Fugazi approach - the proven shout and power-chord stomp - but 'Forensic Scene' sounds almost Beatlesque in its lovely hesitance. Regardless of that evolution, 'Red Medicine' still includes all the things that made 'Repeater'-era Fugazi so inspiring, their standard ringing guitars and shouted vocals glaring through the mix. 'Red Medicine' also shows a new-found eloquence, a quieter approach for their songwriting craft, and previously unseen musicianship.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"---","offers":[{"title":"VINYL","offer_id":42876941303983,"sku":"718751799011","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0552\/8833\/2463\/products\/ab67616d0000b273a2ccd05a572bef93d8749fd8.jpg?v=1699224263","url":"https:\/\/endofanear.sbs\/products\/718751799011","provider":"End Of An Ear","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
