For its fourth studio album, Fugazi began to move into more experimental styles of music, including noise punk, psychedelia, and dub. Fugazi opted to retreat from the in-your-face production values of In on the Kill Taker.
This is where the quartet solidified its well-documented anti-establishment reputation. 'repeater' is also notable for its two instrumentals - 'brendan #1' and 'joe #1' something all subsequent Fugazi LPs featured.
The record blends avant-garde noise, lo-fi electronics, post-punk angularity, and fragile folk melodies into an unsettling but deeply personal soundscape
Originally released in 2006.
This album was commissioned by Nike to listen to on an iPod while exercising.
