This album is everything—raw, urgent, and packed with some of the sharpest post-hardcore ever recorded. From the punchy opener "Turnover" to the anthemic "Merchandise", every track is pure energy. The dual vocals, tight basslines, and relentless drumming make it impossible to sit still.
Plus, the DIY ethos? Unmatched. No major labels, no overpriced merch—just pure, uncompromising music. 30+ years later, Repeater still sounds fresh, still makes you wanna move, and still reminds you why Fugazi was different.
If this is your first look into the realm of punk/post-hardcore scene, have fun.

It pains me to say it but I was into Ska Punk, I blame it on the Tony Hawk‘s Pro Skater soundtracks. When I found this CD in a discount bin of my favourite record store I thought I had unearthed some forgotten artifact. It stayed in my disc-man until it would no longer play. I’ve long moved on from this type of party boy, unnecessarily upbeat, and often time misogynist music, but sometimes the opening bars of Beer will play out in my brain and for just a moment I allow myself to slip back...

Such a fun album! One of the albums which sold me on easycore as a genre and I love coming back to it every once and a while. The transition from the song Dead Men Tell No Tales into Mutiny! is epic.

Magnolia Electric Co. - Jason Molina & Songs: Ohia
This is one of my favorite albums of all time. It was produced by Steve Albini (R.I.P) and was at the height of Jason Molina's career. A few songs legitimately floor me every time I hear them. Farewell Transmission is at the very top of that list. Everything about it hits me viscerally, from the gorgeous lyrics ("Mama here comes midnight with the dead moon in its jaws"), to that goddamn perfect ending cutting out at just the right moment. "Listen!"
The rest of the album carries on from there, sprawling farther and farther with each song after the opener, and god if Hold On Magnolia isn't a hell of a bookend. The sheer pathos and emotion of this album is incredible. But fuck me if Farewell Transmission isn't just one of the greatest songs of all time.
Anywho, definitely give it a listen!
