This week we discuss Washington DC’s Minor Threat. Led by Fugazi founding member Ian Mackaye, Minor Threat is one of the most influential (and quite frankly, best) hardcore punk bands around and we had an awesome time dissecting their short discography. Mike nerds out hard on this one and we recommend that anyone interested in the American hardcore punk scene give this episode a shot. It’s a sweaty good time.

Closing track: “I Don’t Wanna Hear It” from Minor Threat EP (1981)
