I do not know, I can think of tons of albums I would list above Minor Threat.

Bad Brains - ROIR
Black Flag - Damaged
NoMeansNo - Wrong
Dead Kennedys - Plastic Surgery Disasters (yes, I am picking this over Fresh Fruit)
Dayglo Abortions - Feed Us A Fetus
Dead Boys - Young Loud and Snotty
Stiff Little Fingers - Inflammable Material
The Damned - Machine Gun Etiquette
Minutemen - Double Nickels on the Dime

and on and on and on and on...

Minor Threat are good, and I love them. But I find Discography to be lop sided. More great songs on the first half, and drags on near the end. Do not think it is consistent enough to be above any of those albums listed and many more I could mention if I so desired at the moment.

Especially out of those, Bad Brains and Damaged.

Even overall in hardcore, Minor Threat arent one of my favorites. Articles of Faith, Battalion of Saints, Genetic Control, Deep Wound, Gang Green, The F.U.'s, Wasted Youth... list goes on here too. Think there were tons more bands that don't get credit.
