MizeekDawgE-40's Full Review: Complete Discography by Minor Threat
Minor Threat was one of the most influential bands of the early 80's; some credit them to starting the entire hardcore genre. Ian MacKaye the guitarist and main writer for Minor Threat is also behind Teen Idles, EggHunt, Embrace, Fugazi as well as Minor Threat.(all available on Dischord Records)
The discography includes all tracks recorded in the short lived history of Minor Threat from 81-83 and is a bargain, because of the low prices always stamped on the back (never pay higher) from Dischord Records. All the tracks are fast energetic messages portrayed through song. The song "Straight Edge" was the spark of a movement that is still followed by thousands, and should make people think seriously about purchasing this recording.
A few bands that have released Minor Threat covers on their recordings to give an idea of their impact: Slayer, NOFX, and H20.
Check out reviews of these artists with former Minor Threat members, Fugazi, TeenIdles, EggHunt, Embrace, and Bad Religion.
