Music reviews of In on the Kill Taker
Music Review: classicq
Rating: 5 Stars
This is the first i heard of this band and probably my favorate album by Fuguzi.
The album remains loud and punky throughout. But on this thread Fuguzi strings lots of bloody matallic textures, stedy precussive noises, and all kinds of shadings and dynamics you don't normally associate with hardcore music. The album is also engeneered with a soundstage feel, as if your in the back of an empty theatre listening, so the many flurishes stand out very well.
"Kill Taker" is perfectly paced, with some great rockers to open the album, followed by complex experiments like "Rend it." The sugues always surprise and work perfectly.
Fuguzi may be a do it yourself band, but they do it themselves extremely well.
Description of In on the Kill Taker
By far the most unrelievedly aggressive of this seminal D.C. foursome's seven albums, this 1993 collection assembles all the essential elements of Fugazi's aesthetic--strafing melodic tension, dynamic shifts, and unrestrained lyrical fury--and drives them into the psyche with nary a hint of sonic subtlety. That might sound one-dimensional, but somehow Ian MacKaye and company manage to wring a full spectrum of emotional impact out of that small patch of territory. From typically vociferous political plaints ("Smallpox Champion") to decidedly personal missives designed to provoke self-examination ("Great Cop"), the songs invariably cut to the bone. The highlight? "Cassavetes," which stutters and swells with remarkable grace, paying oblique tribute to John Cassavetes, an outsider director who was to Hollywood what Fugazi is to the music industry. --David SpragueGeneral CDs
