37:26 Play Later Play Later Lists Like Liked37:26
Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedDamian Kulash , lead singer and guitarist of OK Go , joins Adam for an unforgettable conversation about the album that changed his life: Fugazi’s landmark 1990 release Repeater . Damian shares his teenage memories of discovering Fugazi in the heart of the Washington, D.C. punk scene and how Repeater gave him a blueprint for making music that was raw, political, human, and totally accessible. From DIY shows in churches to five-dollar ticket prices and all-ages gigs, Fugazi’s ethos left a permanent imprint on him — and helped shape his approach to music, art, and live performance. We get deep into: The power of seeing music made by real people, in real time How Repeater became a gateway to punk, DIY ethics, and artistic empowerment The surprising parallels between Prince and Fugazi Why the D.C. hardcore scene was a “religion” for creative kids How that same mindset lives on in OK Go’s genre-bending videos and music Whether you're a lifelong Fugazi fan or just discovering the magic of Repeater , this one’s a wild, inspiring ride. About Repeater : Released in 1990, Repeater is the debut full-length album by legendary post-hardcore band Fugazi . Combining punk aggression with experimental songwriting and a fiercely independent ethic, the album set a new standard for underground rock. It remains one of the most influential records of the 1990s. About Damian Kulash: Damian Kulash is the frontman of Grammy-winning alt-rock band OK Go , renowned for their groundbreaking music videos and inventive pop-rock sound. OK Go’s commitment to DIY creativity and visual storytelling has earned them a global fanbase — and it all traces back to the raw power of bands like Fugazi.
