The late 1980s: Reagan is decomposing in office, crack has flooded the streets of DC, and Revolution Summer is over. In this episode of The Dischourse, we look at a curious time for the label. While Fugazi comes together gradually, the spotlight is ceded to bands like Soulside, Fire Party, Ignition, Three, and Fidelity Jones, several of whom make the trek to Europe, bringing the sound and spirit of DC back to the continent. Also discussed: Nick makes an apology, and David attempts to mansplain Riot Grrrl. Not to be missed!
