'Minor Threat' aka 'First Two Seven' Inches is a compilation album by the American hardcorepunk band Minor Threat, released in March 1984 and consists of the first two extended plays 'Minor Threat' and 'In My Eyes' .
Hardcore punk music with a positive message. All that and more in today's post about the seminal band Minor Threat and the Straight Edge movement that they began with the song of the same name...a movement that is still promoted by bands such as Rancid and Idles today. Enjoy :)

Complete Discography is a compilation album by American hardcore punk band Minor Threat, including their three EPs, the Out of Step album and Flex Your Head compilation tracks, released in January 1989.
Got a package of wax today from our friends at Discord with new Minor Threat and classic Fugazi.
The Out of Step Outtakes are new, and I thought I’d buy Repeater on vinyl while I was there because I’ve owned CD, cassette, and digital copies. Why not add to the mix? I mean, it’s in my top ten records of all time.

In My Eyes is Minor Threat's second expanded track, released on Dischord Records in December 1981, featuring 'Out Of Step', a track that has become the unofficial anthem of the straight edge movement
