Album Review
It's amazing what one finds when looking for something else. While going through tape after tape putting together the 20 Years of Dischord box set, Ian MacKaye and company found these tapes that comprise the first recording session of the now legendary hardcore band Minor Threat. Granted, there are no new tracks here and no new revelations musically, but it is interesting to hear the playing progression from these demos to the tracks that actually made release (which can be found on the Complete Discography CD). A very cool view into the embryonic days and some rather hilarious pictures of the D.C. kids make this a very desirable item for fans of the band.
Customer Reviews
East Coast Punk Legends
I was there in the 80's with Mepps & Birg and seen em' do it. The rest is just filler.
The definition of "hardcore".
If anything, these tracks are BETTER than the released versions. It's like sitting in Ian's livingroom listening to Minor Threat practice and someone happened to bring along a tape deck. Zero production, just hit "record" and sit back while they play. Anyway, as has been said countless times, Minor Threat is the reason hardcore is what it is today. If you were around then, you already know this, but you youngsters that think AFI and Taking Back Sunday are "hardcore" need to be slapped in the head with this album.
Amazing
If Minor Threat were any better I would personally wet my jockies.AAH!...I just did.
