Dischord Records will be releasing Fugazi’s first demo, simply entitled First Demo. After playing only 10 shows, the band recorded the 11 demo tracks in January 1988 at Inner Ear Studios. The tracks include the unreleased “Turn Off Your Guns” and the cut “In Defense Of Humans,” which appeared on the State of the Union compilation in 1989, the only track from the sessions to ever be released officially.

The release, due later in 2014, will end the first phase of the Fugazi Live Series, in which the band has uploaded recordings of more than 900 of the shows they played when they were still active band. First Demo will be available in CD, vinyl, and MP3 formats. (via DischordStereogum)
