"The Teen Idles were pioneers of the DC Hardcore scene in the very early ’80s. Their only release was Dischord Records’ first. Ian MacKaye and Jeff Nelson went on to form Minor Threat, one of the most influential bands in all of punk rock and hardcore."
"Minor Threat was an American hardcore punk band from Washington DC. Short-lived but very influential, critics have called the band and their work “iconic,” and have noted that their “groundbreaking” music “has held up better than most of their contemporaries.” Minor Threat is credited with unintentionally starting the ‘straight edge movement'"
Assuming that I didn't.. this is and will always be in my top 5 favorite albums of all time. The combination of Minor Threat, The Misfits, and the Bouncing Souls is what got me into the whole punk scene when I was like 12 or 13 years old. I cannot thank them enough for introducing me to what real music sounds like. THIS IS REAL DC PUNK MY FRIENDS!! At the time I was listening to blink 182 and good charlotte or some shit like that, Ian MacKaye knocked all the bullshit out of my confused little skull, parted the heavens, and forced godly rock into my soul. It was like reincarnation.
"Hailing from Austin, Texas, the members of 13th Floor Elevators were quite possibly the first artists to describe their music as psychedelic. Their lyrics and sleeve notes openly and religiously endorsed the use of drugs (particularly lsd) to alter human consciousness for the better."
