Ian MacKaye's new project. (hardcore, punk, single, fan, Fugazi)

Yes, you've probably heard rumors that Fugazi have broken up, but according to Ian MacKaye, formerly of Minor Threat, and now frontman of Fugazi, their just not true.

Ian has put Fugazi on an idefinate hiatus (very much like what happened with Minor Threat) to work on a new project with Amy Farina formerly of the The Warmers, and he had even started another of his own record labels, thats apparently not going to be under the hood of his famous Dischord Records.

The new band is called The Evens, Im thinking that since Ian has for about 20 years been one of the leading minds in punk/hardcore music that this new prject of his will be ground breaking, and well.. awesome. Has anyone heard any of this bands new singles or seen them live?

What do you all think of this?
