Like, 'We're gonna let you have one picture of us, we're gonna do one interview, and we're just gonna let our music speak for us, and that's gonna be that.'
Fugazi's mixture of punk guitars and funky rhythms made it one of the most influential bands in alternative rock.
He was becoming really super-obsessed with Built to Spill and Fugazi, and I know he admired Ian [MacKaye, of Fugazi] and Doug [Martsch, of Built to Spill] like crazy.
Well, my influences are the weirdest ones compared to those of the band—I'm equally inspired by Fugazi, Minor Threat, Descendents, and all these punk and hardcore bands...
I came in at a juncture where the context was set for metal to make a more significant crossover into the scene, even though there were still significant constraints about what a straight edge kid could listen to. In a perhaps unorthodox fashion, I continued to listen to (and more importantly, enjoy) music outside the fold: Fugazi, Godflesh, Drive like Jehu,
Dominic [White] and I liked Fugazi and Flat Duo Jets, which I got to from working at the upholstery shop. Those were those punk influences coming up
In addition, the first concert White ever attended was a Fugazi concert, see: "'Kneeling At The Anthem D.C.' Finds Jack White Wrestling With His Past And Planning For The Future". September 28, 2018. Retrieved April 26, 2020.
I think for a lot of this record we were listening to stuff that we listened to when we were younger. We were listening to Superchunk, Archers Of Loaf, Polvo, Modest Mouse, and even a lot of hardcore bands that we listened to when we were younger, like Fugazi.

That really opened my eyes to the fact that there were no rules. After I heard Fugazi I was definitely more open to the ideas behind guitar playing, as opposed to the technical difficulty of it.
It harks back to Matt Healy's youthful love of Fugazi and Converge and other hardcore bands
Here are some bands that changed my life when I was young: ... Fugazi, Embrace, Rites Of Spring
I saw one of Fugazi's first shows in a church basement on 16th Street NW in 1987, when I was 17. I remember being totally blown away, and looking around at other people in the audience and seeing this amazed, captivated look on their faces. For the next few years, while I still lived in D.C., I went to see Fugazi almost every time they played. I tried to learn how to be in a band from watching them, but their music and energy were so far beyond anything I could ever imagine being capable of imitating.
I discovered how great Fugazi are and I got to see it all first-hand because I was in Modest Mouse. It was an intoxicating time and it coincided with a change in my personal life
Braid started writing songs that combined the sounds of DC with those of the Bay Area. 'We would soak up and study pretty much anything on Dischord,' [Bob Nanna] says. 'Anytime any of those bands like—Fugazi, Nation of Ulysses, Shudder to Think, or Jawbox—came anywhere near Chicago, we were there.' In addition to the music, Nanna was obsessed with the energy that these bands expressed onstage.
'Cap'n Jazz had that sort of Dischord, Fugazi influence,' says Kinsella.
Lost Songs clearly flirts with political and social commentary, but as Reece notes, 'It's really more observations and reflections. We're not trying to shove any sort of gospel down someone's throat – we're just trying to question things for ourselves. As kids in the Nineties, we were into bands like Fugazi and Public Enemy – bands that were very politically wrapped up in a bunch of stuff. It seemed like there was a sense of trying to find the truth, or at least speaking out.'
...it recalls bands that I listened to growing up: Jawbox and Fugazi -truly great bands. I think they put their own stamp on it. It's like, these are our influences
All I ever wanted to do was be like Superchunk or Fugazi or Pavement—the bands I liked as a kid," [Justin Courtney Pierre] says. "Those are still my favorite bands. I strive to be that awesome and I fail miserably. But that's always been the goal: to write cool shit. The songs I like listening to is the type of music I'm trying to write. Contemporaries—I don't even know what that is.

Once we reached 2009's Kollaps Tradixionales TSMZ didn't just share an ethical and ideological outlook with heroes of Menuck such as Black Flag and Fugazi, they sounded like a punk rock band,
Magma's Udu Wudu, any Fugazi LP, Neutral Milk Hotel's Aeroplane Over The Sea,
When he started developing his own tastes, he was attracted to the energy of Primus and Fugazi. 'I was a bit starstruck when I saw Ian MacKaye [of Minor Threat and Fugazi] at catering yesterday,' he reveals. 'I was like "Oh shit, that guy's my fucking hero."'
So bands that we draw influences from – bands like Fugazi or Refused or, I don't know...
We loved Archers of Loaf, but we also loved Fugazi and all these influences. We often ended up on tour with posthardcore bands but we really weren't that hard even if we were heavy at times.

I didn't care for hardcore. I didn't like the politics of it or some of the messages I heard. But Fugazi came along ... By the time I got to college, I I [sic] started listening to Fugazi and stuff like that, and then I kind of let down my guard, and my friends started playing me records I was super impressed with.
