I can get behind this.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

It will be a damn shame if there isnt a Pogues song on here.

Weirdly not my favorite Fugazi album, but both of those songs are amazing.
Same. It used to pop into my mind first because it's so immediate-sounding, but I'd rank it fairly low these days. Not saying much for a band with a discography that pristine.
Honestly I’ll listen to anyone’s defense of any favorite Fugazi album other than End Hits, which is the closest to mediocre they ever got. I don’t count Instrument because it’s a weird compilations/soundtrack/outtakes/demos thing.
End Hits weirdly shot up a couple places while I was making a introductory playlist for a friend last month, but still nothing beats the one-two of Killtaker and Argument for me.
I’m Killtaker/Repeater/13 Songs but Argument is a hell of an album.
I think I'm Killtaker/Argument/Repeater

Oh shit, Say It Ain't So is track 7 (so is El Scorcho, but I'll stick with SIAS).
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.
