MINOR THREAT - LIVE IN NEW JERSEY 1982!



Minor Threat were an American hardcore punk band formed in Washington, D.C. in 1980 and disbanded in 1983. The band was relatively short-lived, but had a strong influence on the hardcore punk music scene. Minor Threat's song "Straight Edge" became the eventual basis of the straight edge movement, while the band often professed their own "straight edge" ideals. Allmusic described Minor Threat's music as "iconic," and noted that their "groundbreaking" music "has held up better than most of their contemporaries."

Along with the fellow Washington, D.C. hardcore band Bad Brains, Minor Threat set the standard for many hardcore punk bands in the 1980s and 1990s. They produced short, off-beat, and often astonishingly fast songs, eventually with high production quality, which at the time was lacking in most punk rock. All of Minor Threat's records were released on Ian MacKaye and Jeff Nelson's own label, Dischord Records. The band's sound is commonly referred to as "modern hardcore", incorporating fast tempos, as well as being off-beat.
