Furniture + 2

Furniture + 2 is the last EP released by Fugazi. It was recorded in January and February 2001, the same time that the band was recording their last album, The Argument, and released in October 2001. It follows much the same format as Fugazi’s previous single, “3 Songs”, in that it features one funky midtempo song sung by Ian MacKaye, one brief punk rock blast sung by Guy Picciotto, and one instrumental piece.

Both “Furniture” and “Hello Morning” date back to the late 1980s; indeed, “Furniture” was the third song performed at Fugazi’s first show on September 3, 1987. Portions of “Number Five” can be traced back to a song called “Turkish Disco” which was recorded as a demo in March 1997 and released on Fugazi’s Instrument Soundtrack in 1999.
