I love when we agree on stuff... it's just so rare...

All Fugazi albums are worth hearing. Worth owning, even.

Ha, I'm watching the DC punk documentary as we speak.

There's absolutely no way I could ever pick a fave of theirs, but I do view their records as having a really fucking amazing chronology of growth and improvement. Steady Diet could be my favorite because for whatever reason it's the first one I bought when I was like 13. Then again, there are times when I listen to The Argument and wonder if it could be my fave. Full Disclosure? Fucking come on. All I know is that I really couldn't say a bad thing about any of it. I can think of few bands that mean more to me musically and personally.

Thanks man! Always fun to look back—my tastes are pretty ADD, so the end of year review's good timez for me. I'm sure there's tons of shit I forgot.

Much less metal this year. Weird.

I loved harmonicraft, but this one melted and I was never ever to get through to it without turning off. I'll try to give it a spin again sometime soon. :idk:

I didn't dislike Harmonicraft—they're just one of those bands whose heavier/less melodic material sounds better to me (despite the fact that I love melodic stuff probably most of the time). Same goes for Baroness.
