Fugazi fans already know that this is the original gospel according to Ian MacKaye. This Washington, D.C., quartet hit harder, faster, and franker than just about anybody--and were willing to see through their own bull as quickly as anyone else's. MacKaye manages to be charismatic and confrontational at the same time: tossing brilliant, genuinely funny asides into his serious-as-a- heart-attack lyrics.

500 CDs You Must Own Before You Die! (500 music items)"Their hardcore racket was loud, their mood angry and their songs short. Washington, D.C.’s Minor Threat appeared to have consumed their body weight in stimulants. In fact, the straight-edge movement was named after a Minor Threat tune. Standout track: “Straight Edge”"
