Instrument is a Punk album by Fugazi, originally released in 1999.
About
Fragmentary, funny, and fascinating, Fugazi’s 1999 <i>Instrument Soundtrack</i> accompanied a pseudo-documentary of the same name, directed by the band’s long-time ally Jem Cohen. It’s without a doubt the least conventional Fugazi album. But it’s a favorite of Fugazi’s Ian MacKaye, because it’s the sound of four pals messing around—a cool snapshot of the band’s working proce. Most of <i>Instrument Soundtrack</i> is the sound of songs coming together link by link and yard by yard, as each track is assembled, jammed out, and pulled apart. “Lusty Scripps” finds Guy Picciotto swapping out his trademark trembly guitar, and swapping in his clarinet; “I’m So Tired” is a genuine piano ballad; and the original demo for “Guildford Fall” will remind old fans that this <i>End Hits</i> track started out as a muscular instrumental. .
