Description

Fugazi is the second studio album of the progressive rock band Marillion. It was released in 1984 and was the first album with Ian Mosley on drums. It reached no. 5 on the UK album charts, stayed on the chart for a total of 20 weeks and contained the UK top 40 singles Punch And Judy (no. 29) and Assassin (no. 22).
The album was produced under difficult circumstances, with the band employing and ejecting a number of drummers in quick succession following the departure of Mick Pointer, before finally settling on Ian Mosley.

The term ‘fugazi’ was originally coined by American troops during the Vietnam War and means ‘all fucked up’. Hence, when Fish says ‘The World is totally fugazi’ he is referring to the state of the planet as depicted in the songs lyrical content. The word is actually an acronym, standing for “”Fucked Up, Got Ambushed, Zipped In”” (as in, zipped in a body bag)
