Monuments To Excess [Reissue]

Broken Rekids

A classic band that released most of their stuff in 1990. This is soaked in Fugazi influence, sometimes more so than others. Gruffish, melodic punk with political lyrics. It’s pretty easy to hear their influence on a lot of bands today like Hot Water Music and Small Brown Bike.

Monuments To Excess is a discography of all Fuel’s songs that originally came out on Allied Records in 1995. Kudos to Broken Rekids for keeping this around now that Allied is no more. Necessary and good.
