more respectable since it's not on a major, but i think "blue" is still better than "the argument." i think there are a grand total of 3 good songs on "the argument." 4-5 on "blue" depending on my mood.

the production on one is really dated, the production on the other won't save the boring ass songs within.

they were in fact awesome. "gong" is worth tracking down and the live boots of the "blue" stuff is worth looking for on youtube. "blue" i think had stronger songs than some of what was on "shot" and some of "down."

call tjl sellouts, they might've written and obvious single or two, but really they never stopped pushing their own boundaries.

"the argument" is just as bad as blue and "end hits" blows "shot" away. "red medicine" certainly does in "down." but nothing fugazi did holds a candle to "goat." though "in on the kill taker" does trump "liar."

album for album fugazi wins. but their high water mark is still only half way up the marker that is "goat." serious. a hard call but a true one. if you think otherwise you're wrong. wrong or with taste leaning toward the boring. not that fugazi is boring, but compared to the best tjl offered, they look boring. sorry if you don't see it, try harder.
