Description: Steady Diet CD Steady Diet Of Nothing by Fugazi FORMAT Compact Disc CONDITION Brand New Description From the opening swarms of "Exit Only," you can tell Steady Diet of Nothing will differ from Fugazis earlier records. Repeaters excellence cant be denied, but the band stood in danger of stagnating its sound. To its benefit, Fugazi made some changes, employing more herk-a-jerk rhythms and dub influences, and changing up the lyrical focus. Actually, the lyrics get a bit vague -- bordering on equivocality at times -- which has its advantages and disadvantages. With Steady Diet, Fugazi get more economical and less forceful. Though not nearly as neck-gnawing as Repeater, Steady Diet still packs a sizable wallop, but with slower tempos and less deliberate instrumentation. As always, a poison-tipped dart is pointed at the government, media, and major entertainment outlets. Ian MacKayes "destroy your television" rant on "Polish" is one of the more direct and simple songs. His "KYEO" comes straight from the rice paddy or homefront, depending on interpretation. It urges the listener to always remain aware, whether awaiting the enemys next battle move or remaining blissfully unaware of how people can be taken advantage of by others. As with the rest of the bands catalog, lyrics are provided in the booklet. This makes things much easier on the intent listener, as both Picciotto and MacKaye have weird voices that become unintelligible when howled over their instrumental din. The lyric sheet is most useful on Picciottos "Latin Roots." Hes not warning you that "its time to meet Jamaicans," as it sounds, but rather "its time to meet your makers." Not quite lending itself to "Purple Haze"-like levels of butchery, but important to point out nonetheless. ~ Andy Kellman, All Music Guide Tracks Description 1. Exit Only 2. Reclamation 3.
