Instrument Soundtrack is a 1999 album by American post-hardcore band Fugazi.

Background

It is a mainly instrumental soundtrack for the documentary (Instrument) about the band produced by the band and filmmaker Jem Cohen.

The soundtrack mostly consists of previously unreleased songs and studio outtakes culled from Fugazi's history to that point, as well as several demo versions of songs from their proper albums (mostly 1998's End Hits).

Of particular note is the song "I'm So Tired," a piano ballad played and sung by Ian MacKaye, which is a significant departure from Fugazi's usual post-hardcore sound.
