| | Minor Threat / Skewbald Album Reviews |
| | The song has a new wavish sort of intro and the sadder parts are punctuated by acoustic guitars. | | | The essence of Minor Threat’s music was not to tell the rules to which to abide by, but to vent their disillusionment at what they saw around them. | | | Of all the bands covered in Azzered's book, Minor Threat seems to be the only one whose music closely follows the story of the band. |

| | Minor Threat existed from 1980 to 1983 and released some of the most influential music ever; moreover, Dischord has been kind enough to help out music fans out there by compiling every single song the band recorded onto one disc so you don't have to search high and low to find all their releases. | | | The most amazing thing about Minor Threat is simply their age at the time of of the band's existence. | | | The band's influence is simply legendary on the punk and hardcore world and even metal has not escaped the band's touch. |

| | Minor Threat was the definitive Washington, D.C., hardcore punk band, setting the style for the straight-edge punk movement of the early '80s. | | | Over the course of three years, Minor Threat released two EPs, one album, and several singles, all of which were quite popular in the American punk underground. | | | Upon its 1983 release, the album became popular within the underground and Minor Threat were becoming alternative stars, which didn't sit well with MacKaye. |

| | Minor Threat is what many of todays punk bands are trying to emulate and in most cases this is good. | | | However we must remember that Minor Threat was not just about teaching straight-edge...they were all about music. | | | His ideas on not smoking, or drinking were incorporated into their lyrics which unkowningly later would start a revolution of straight-edge bands and a new lifestyle that many "punkers" would live by forever. |

| | And 'Minor Threat' is a pretty neato little rallying song for the youth of the world to shave their heads and start thinking. | | | Anyway, what makes Ian MacKaye's Minor Threat so interesting is not their music, which is hard to differentiate from anyone else, but their philosophy. | | | hree more songs, again real short, and you may not even recognize this as Minor Threat unless your idea of this band includes bells and acoustic guitars (like on the title track, which still blasts) and tempos you might be able to tap your feet to. |
