Marc Weidenbaum at Disquiet writes about a new project of interests to all fans of Fugazi, DC hardcore, and cultural mashups:

"This guy named Chris Lawhorn has, with Fugazi's permission, made a full album in which every track combines four or more Fugazi songs into a new song, says Marc.

"Lawhorn focused almost entirely on the instrumental materials," he adds. "I think it's tensile and wonderful, and I interviewed him."

No, wait. This guy’s about a foot too tall.

I Love Fugazi, but I don’t think I can get so excited about Fugazi fan fiction.

  Yeah. I kind of agree. Just listen to Fugazi.

Fugazi, the edits: an entire discography remixed down to one album-length study of rhythm and tension
