[kj] [Bulk] Re: Top 50 songs of 2000-2010

[B. Oliver Sheppard]

_End Hits_ and _Steady Diet_ were Fugazi's weakest LPs. I think their 
strongest LP was _In on the Killtaker_, followed by _Repeater_ followed 
by _The Argument,  followed by _Red Medicine_. "13 Songs" is a 
collection of two EPs. If you want to call it, however, an "LP," then 
I'd place it in 2nd place behind _In on the Killtaker_. Not every music 
lover would agree with this. Certainly not every Fugazi fan would.

Compared to crap like The Vines and Be Your Own Pet and also (sorry) but 
a lot of the stuff, on for ex., Alex's Top 50 list, _The Argument_ is, 
IMHO, pretty damn great. It isn't someting I chose because it, hey, it's 
Fugazi, so, well, gotta give 'em props, regardless of their output. 
Because I honestly think their _End Hits_ LP from 1998 sucks.
