End Hits

Editorial Reviews
Option
End Hits is exactly what you’d expect: thick punk rock with jarring mathematics, the odd humble melody, the classic brotherly chant and the old inimitable gut-punch that may only kick in hard about halfway through. --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.

4 out of 5 stars Doesn't immediately hit you, but boy, when it does..........2006-08-10

If Fugazi has become the living embodiment of the term "independent," then the band members' musical growth seems to have been equally unaffected by contemporary movements launched outside of their hometown, practically to the point where "Fugazi" and the "Washington, D.C., sound" are interchangeable. (Although the band members might disagree.) It's consistently amazing to hear them pass through areas of angular post-punk, dub, hardcore and rock while remaining separate from all of the above; and on "End Hits," Fugazi continue to move forward as their own genre. From the abruptly clipped opening track onward, "End Hits" is a demanding, slow-burning, almost cinematic listen -- production-wise, it's certainly the richest "headphone record" in the band's history. Sound effects, programmed beats ("Closed Captioned"), wah pedals ("Guilford Fall"), tambourines ("Five Corporations"), vocal treatments ("No Surprise") and layers of overdubs snake through these 13 tracks, each alight with a sense of purpose and an understanding of both economy and contrast. The noted Fugazi sense of urgency remains in tracks such as "Place Position" and the fittingly titled instrumental "Arpeggiator," but it's tempered by tortoise-like development. (After all, with age, one realizes the importance of contemplating an idea rather than merely screaming one's lungs out.) Guy Picciotto's and Ian MacKaye's lyrics are as open-ended as ever; and while it might seem logical to assume that a song such as "Closed Captioned" is pointed at the media ("And since we live in present tense/The only hope of making sense/All depends on the source of light"), it's not cut-and-dry here. Same goes for the title: "End Hits" could be a statement against the music industry's widget-production system, an indication that this is Fugazi's swan song, or a bullet fired at the image of the rock star and the media that've propagated it. All are equally relevant to a band who've spent a career questioning their own place in an industry they simultaneously embrace and disregard.

5 out of 5 stars ::Gasp:: They Can Really Play They're Instruments.......2006-07-03

By far their best album in regards to musical composition. A must for any Fugazi fan. Some say it's "too jammy" but I believe it's part of the natural evolution of the band. Fugazi probably never would have gone on to make "the Argument" without "End Hits" as its precursor. A great album.

2 1/2 stars

While not an inspired work, their are many great ideas on this album, especially given the narrow genre that fugazi helped innovate..Alot of the compositions seem to be trying a little too hard in the wrong directions..There is a huge attempt to bridge out as far as possible on every track in an individualistic sense, but the notes just arent really there..It is in its most simple moments ironically, that fugazi affects their listeners most earnestly one last time.....

4 out of 5 stars A Total Surprise.......2006-01-28

Fugazi, along with NoMeansNo, are pretty much the only innovative "punk" bands left in the music world today. Whereas once punk was eclectic & vibrant, it has now become a cartoon, loaded with Bad Religion and Green Day sound-alikes. Amazingly, Fugazi have completely transformed their sound and still been able to remain interesting. Gone are the dub-style bass lines, the amped-up funk drumming and the choppy power riffs. This would be the death knell for most groups, but Fugazi get away with it. Instead, I now hear a band that injects artiness and experimentation into their rock-out jams, as well as exploring their more ambient, spacious sound. "Break" is a classic Fugazi album opener, displaying a tightness that only comes with years of playing together. "Foreman's Dog" starts off with some classic rock riff, but quickly delves into a mid-pace display of tricky guitar lines. It also features the best example of their contrasting dual vocal stylings. Guy Piccioto has a sinister, minor-key delivery and a lyrical obsession with body parts, while Ian MacKaye delivers anthemic choruses and themes in his sing-songy yelp. Their songs are deceptively simple. The band aren't the greatest musicians, but have the inventiveness to take their limited abilities and combine all these simple elements into unique compositions filled with time changes and unusual chord progressions. The instrumental "Arpeggiator" sounds like it should be the theme to the Charge of the Light Brigade, it has a familiar feeling to it, like you've heard it before in a classical music piece. "Recap Modotti" is a laid-back, moody number that could easily be used in a movie somewhere, featuring bassist Joe Lally on lead vox. The band is light years ahead of any of their contemporaries. Even their fans have to catch up to the band's constant, gradual style transitions. "Guilford Fall" utilizes feedback and droning one-note chords, but somehow remains catchy as hell. Granted, songs like "Floating Boy" & "Pink Frosty" go nowhere, but as long as Fugazi keep one-upping themselves, even the lacklustre tunes become bearable. I'm totally not into their personal politics, but they are to be admired for doing whatever they feel like, fans and foes be damned. It's as if they knew that they'd eventually lose a large chunk of their fan base whether they sold out or not, and decided to at least amuse themselves. They've gone from rhythm-driven crowd-pleasers to more guitar and vocal based aural soundscapes. The rhythm section is more subdued but still very involved, ocassionally breaking into their well-worn, but still fun, formula (see "Five Corporations"). "End Hits" & "Red Medicine" are worlds apart from their debut ep's & "Repeater", and the end results of this evolution have been staggering. It's almost like one great band has split into 2 amazing bands. Fugazi are an awesome group that have been criminally ignored, due to their refusal to affiliate with corporate-driven labels and radio/video stations. Instead of taking the money and running, they've stuck to their guns and become an important piece of musical history. Give them a chance. It'll take a few listens, but when they grow on you, they are a pleasant surprise in the copycat music world.

4 out of 5 stars Blinded by the right.......2005-10-10

Fugazi's later records seem to all follow the same pattern: "let's rock out with our usual brand of angular anthemic rock for the first few tracks; then about halfway through the record, we'll throw in our weird little numbers that we've been messing around with in the studio...and by the time the record's on it's last track, we've transformed into a psychadelic lounge noise ambient jazz band."

this is not a bad thing at all. but you know what to expect. opener "Break" is a short sonic blast that basically cleans out your pipes and prepares you for the rest of the cd. rock for a while...here comes some experimental touches amidst the fury...and by the time we hear the last two songs like "Pink Frosty" and "F/D" we're subjected to vocal lines such as "Touch with your eyes drool with my eyes." oooookkay.

but...it keeps you interested and "End Hits" stands as a really great Fugazi record.

5 out of 5 stars The Greatest Singer You're Not Listening Too.......2003-01-25

Why, in the name of all that's holy, isn't Russell Smith a contemporary country superstar and household name? He's been around for years, both as a solo act and as the voice of The Amazing Rhythm Aces. The Aces have had their moments, and ever so often Smith releases a solo album. But everytime, the mass audience greets his work with a yawn. "The End is Not is Sight" is Russell Smith's latest work and it's beautiful. This collection of mostly new material (with a few nods to the Aces with the title track and "Third Rate Romance") showcases Smith's soulful lyrics and distinctive voice. Smith's style is a dose hill-billy boogie, a dash of blue-eyed soul, a little bit country and a little bit rock and roll, all stirred up in a toe-tapping stew that's mmmmmm-mmmmmm good. Whether it's the rocking rhythms of "Jesse" and "We're Gettin' Out of Here," or the sad-sweet ballads like "Walk These Hills" and "Look Heart, No Hands," Smith nails every track. Russell Smith is the greatest singer you're not listening to right now, and you should. And so should everyone who enjoys great lyrics, great music and inimitable vocals.

4 out of 5 stars Blue-Eyed Soul.......2002-11-02

Russell Smith keeps putting out great records. His latest is addictive! "Old School" opens with a sweet soulful midtempo track about a high school reunion. Russell croons with satisfaction on the acoustic "The King Is In His Castle," "He ain't got diamonds, she ain't got pearls, But God's in his heaven & all's right with their world." "The Road" wails with some tasty electric guitar. "Walk These Hills" & "Look Heart, No Hands" are ballads with pretty melodies. "We're Gettin' Outta Here" is a peppy midtempo rocker, "We'll never get outta this world alive; So we might as well have us some fun!" "What I Learned from Loving You" is a tear-in-your-beer country weeper. "Heartbeat in the Darkness" is one of my favorite tracks, a real upbeat toe tapper. "Third Rate Romance" brought to mind the version I love by Rosanne Cash as piano keys pound on this trailer park love song. "Jesse" is great outlaw rock. Russell saves the very best for last with the title track with its pulsing bass line, "Like a bird without a nest, like the stranger in the night & my soul cries out for rest & the end is not in sight." This CD is one to seek out because the songs are consistently strong. Smith varies the tempo, goes from soul to blues to country, all unified by that expressive voice. U Snooze U Lose! Wow!

5 out of 5 stars An astounding album!.......2002-10-26

The luminary musicians that have been assembled to help with the production of this album are testimony to what a talent Russell Smith is. The resulting album doesn't disappoint, with a range of songs lovingly fleshed out by (mostly) sparse productions that allows the vocals of Smith to shine through. The voice is a little deeper than it was back then, but the songwriting is, if anything, better. There are some awesomely good songs here, with satisfying twists to old themes. "Old School" is a good take on cheating songs, and "The Road" reworks views about...well, the road! My favourites are "Don't go to strangers" and especially "What I learned from loving you", which as with so many of Smith's songs resonates with experiences that I can empathise with.I also enjoyed the version of "The end is not in sight", and it bears comparison with a versions that he's recorded elsewhere. A look at the musician name checks suggests that everybody down at Muscle Shoals wanted a piece of this action, including Spooner Oldham and James Hooker.Put starkly, this is an album that whatever your musical tastes you ought to think about listening to, it's that good. Oh, and by the way, there's no mention anywhere in the packaging of the Amazing Rhythm Aces!

5 out of 5 stars Can't Describe It.......2002-07-09

Oh my word! This guy is just remarkable and this CD is a masterpiece. If you even remotely liked the Aces just order it now. The first five songs (all I've heard so far) are incredible. Got to see him live about a year ago and it seemed like he still had it even though the musicianship of the Aces had gotten a little thin. No such trouble here - a studio full of great players and the best singer/songwriter in the business.

          5 out of 5 stars A great chronology.......2006-12-04

          The period that this CD covers was a significant transition, both in the history of popular music and in Perry Como's personal history. If you were to see a label from a 78rpm record from the early part of this collection, it would say "Ted Weems and his Orchestra" (with Perry Como's name, if there at all, in smaller type); one from the later part would have Como's name in big type with Russ Case's Orchestra in small type. What happened, of course, is that the focus in popular music turned, in the 1940s, from the band to the vocalist. And Como became one of the premier examples of the big-name vocalists that typified late-40s and early-50s popular music.

          But not only was popular music changing in this period; Perry Como was developing his own unmistakeable style. In the earliest tracks of this CD, from 1936, Como was just another anonymous big-band singer. Even before the end of his time with the Weems band, though, one can hear his developing the style that made him one of the most-identifiable male vocalists of the era (and a long time afterward, too: Como would continue making great recordings for a half-century afterward!)

          In the mid-1940s, Ted Weems, in whose band Como sang, went into the military and dissolved the band (as did a lot of other bandleaders; this was World War II, after all!), but in addition, one other thing happened that probably did just as much to end the Big Band era and bring in the era of the big-name vocalist: there was a musicians' strike against the major recording companies. One could not hear any new music by any of the bands, but the vocalists continued recording (with vocal choruses behind them, filling the role that had belonged to the orchestras). To the credit of ASV, they follow his recording with the Ted Weems band with no fewer than 4 of these musicianless recordings, a sound that I like to hear but haven't had a chance to hear in large numbers. This was, as I said, an important factor in the change of the nature of popular music in the mid-1940s.

          So we have at least 3 types of recordings in this collection: the big-band-singer period, clearly illustrating Como's developing his own style; the musicians' strike period, when the vocalist had to come out into the open because the bands were no longer there, and the new sound of the late forties (which extended into the fifties, but this CD cuts off in 1945) with the band serving as backup for the vocalist, who now was the main artist on the recording.

          This CD needs to be listened to in order, rather than skipped about as I do with some CDs. It deserves to be listened to as a chronology of the development of popular music from the mid-1930s till the mid-1940s, and as a chronology of the development of Perry Como from anonymous big-band singer to one of the major male vocalists of his time.

          Yes, there is some surface noise and the fidelity of some of the earliest tracks is pretty low. But you cannot expect anything better from 60-70- year-old material, and ASV deserves credit for doing as well as they did to preserve these recordings.

          5 out of 5 stars A nice selection of Perry Como recordings from the first decade!.......2006-08-17

          This is a nice little collection of some superb early Como Recordings and Broadcasts from the first decade of Perry's recording legacy.

          All the songs on this collection have been compiled and transcribed from original 78rpm records by David Lennick and Remastered for CD by Martin Haskell. As always - ASV have made a good effort with the sources they have used! PLEASE USE 1ST GENERATION MASTER TAPES AND METAL PARTS IN FUTURE!

          They aren't trying to hid anything and it clearly states at the end of the liner notes that the recordings on this CD are sourced from 78rpm records!

          All songs are in Mono, so know digital and electronic enhancements such as Electronic Stereo!

          The liner notes and track information are detailed, enjoyable and interesting to read!

          All of the tracks on this CD have been released many times before. The tracks that have been used the least, such as some of the recordings Perry made with Ted Weems' Orchestra for Decca Records - are a little harder to find on commercial Perry Como CD releases, but even those have appeared on at least 6 other CD's. Then there are songs like 'Till the end of time', which alone has appeared on well over 80 commercial Como CD releases!

          ASV released this collection of some Early Hits of Perry's back in 1996. The compilation was then expanded from 24, to 50 full recordings. Making this CD into a double, it was re-named, etc and released just after Perry's passing in 2001. The 2 CD set was called 'Forever and Ever' and is readily available from Amazon.

          This 1 CD collection is sensibly set otu in chronological order, like the 2 CD 'Forever and Ever' set.

          If you are looking for a chronological selection from the early years - your best option is the 2 CD 'Forever and Ever' set. If you are looking specifically for a good selection of Perry's recordings with Ted Weems, then the CD from Jasmine called 'Class will tell' is the best option. None of these CD's are sourced from Master sources - instead, they have used 78rpm records. They have all been cleaned-up well and they haven't tried to hide the fact that their sources aren't original, 1st Generation masters and/or metal parts.

          If you collect anything and everything by Perry Como, then this will make a great addition to your Como collection - otherwise 'Forever and Ever' is the best of the 2 ASV Releases - as far as variety is concerned, as the selection is of much wider scope - and there are over double the amount of tracks on it than on this!

          All the tracks are superb early Como performances. A nice little selection of Early Hits from the incomparable, unique Perry Como! His vocal brilliance is out of this World!

          Superb Listening!

          I heard this song shortly after my husband died. I would like to get a copy of it.
