Day #4 Non-prog prog. "Progressive Punk" is all but an oxymoron since Punk was a musical rejection of Prog Rock. And yet...some musicians become more talented in time and more restless in the confines of their genre. After the breakup of Minor Threat, Ian MacKaye form a new band with the same punk ethos but a more complex sound. In Fugazi's "Give Me The Cure" the guitar doesn't play chords (3+ notes), but dyads (2 notes). It is then up to the bass guitar to supply the 3rd note to form a chord. The song builds from a whisper to a scream, taking some weird pitstops along the way. All in under 3 minutes. https://open.spotify.com/track/0QNJgmPIaESS4Ko2MFpp5h?si=6e1f156ef33c437b

A total classic. But after Minor Threat and before Fugazi, Ian MacKaye and Guy Picciotto invented emo-core with Embrace. 5 $DEGEN https://open.spotify.com/track/6P5W2cDKgYTMJ6fznBiXtH?si=mNazqvUZQmCK2G00qBnSDA

Thanks for posting this. I was aware other bands associated with them (like Rites of Spring) but never really listen to them. Thanks for posting this. It's funny, I always thought I heard echoes of Joy Division and Bauhaus in the music of Fugazi (not the voices, of course, just the music). But this song really confirms that. 69 $DEGEN
