For Fans Of: Fugazi, Jawbox, The Nation of Ulysses
I started listening to this band about a year ago, and am just now getting around to doing a post on them. My apologies.
Forming in 1997 Faraquet signed to Dischord Records to release their first full-length. These guys are definitely influenced by Fugazi, but are more technical. Think Fugazi meets King Crimson.
AllMusic explains their sound best with the following description:
“Faraquet have created an album of technical, churning, and passionate frenzies collapsed into melodically pleasing atrophy.”
