Recomandations

Straight Edge
Minor Threat
Youth Of Today
Guilty Of Being White
I Don't Wanna Hear It

i love it when you make these band threads it gives you info and recomandations :)

more recommendations - In My Eyes, Salad Days, and Look back & Laugh.

My favorite songs are Filler, Out of Step, and Good Guys (Don't Wear White).

They released one album which was a discography of everything they recorded. But they did release four original EP's.

I read somewhere that Minor Threat only recorded about 47 minutes of material but I have never counted it. It is surprising how legendary they became with such a relatively small amount of material, though it was really rather good and did spawn a whole youth movement.

Hey lets just recommend the discogrophy, because all the songs recomended are on it!

^ yeah i have the dicography and i dont have to skip any songs and that is great minor threat is awesome

My favorite hardcore punk band.

Headbanging is for Metal Heads. Either do the windmill or pick up quarters, or whatever which way you want to do your thang in the mosh pit, but please leave the headbanging to the Metal Heads.

I'm sure there was a lot of 2-stepping and kung fu fighting at Minor Threat shows.

out of step <3

Minor Threat sucks and so does this poorly written wikipedia entry of a thread. Fugazi >>>>

Minor Threat - what legends they are. Not only 10/10 for raw aggression and just kick you in the face hardcore catchy riffs, but they started a complete movement pretty much on accident.

When asked about being the godfather of SE / Straight Edge , He stated that he never once could have dreamed that kids around the world would embrace his personal choices and song lyrics as a way of life and never intended that in the first place.

Abstaining from everything chemical and even sex, was simply a way for him to be different than the other guys "being different" and rebelling by popping pills and slamming beers at shows. It also helped that none of them were old enough to drink in the bars they played in, but he also really did feel outside of the rest of the kids in DC at that time.

To this day Dischord shows are only $5 and are always all ages.

Doesn't Ian MacKaye think straight edge kids are dumb?

Bad, maybe. Hot? Yes.

nah dawg

Irl I wouldn’t associate with someone who thought Fugazi...

I’m not even going to say it

I thought Fugazi

not anywhere in this thread

Keep saying it

LOL sorry I'm not into music targeted at thirteen year olds.

13 year olds like great music.

Smashing Pumpkins are great

**** you both.

No they were just as ****. I'd probably be just as willing to listen to a Bush album were I to ever listen to one.

Glycerine is a good song

I can find numerous golf-ball-throat bands I put on a higher pedestal than Smashing Pumpkins.

Stone Temple Pilots >>>> Smashing Pumpkins

SP sucks donkey dick but absolutely the **** no son.

+1. Great band.

I get why people don't like them but they're still way better at their derivative music than Smashing Pumpkins are with theirs.

Purple is better than any SP album imo

You voted for HRC didn't you

Smashing Pumpkins have the best guitar in alt rock behind Sonic Youth and better drums

+2, agreed. I like both bands, but I think STP are better and a hell of a lot more consistent.

And Tiny Music from the Vatican Gift Shop is legit underrated album.

Inb4 Batman reps Seether and 3 Days Grace.
