Q('_' Q)

[silvertone]

NP. hope you enjoy



isnt the dischord records just ian's moms house? i remember reading an interview where he get pissed when punks knock on her door cos they wanna check out the label

[C.Mongler]

it used to be. it's now a generic office in arlington VA

[C.Mongler]

tho i think his parents still live at the ole' spot, which is still printed on all their records lolol

[Samus Aran]

just got the minor threat discography cuz it was about time really

nice

one of my only "wowee first pressing of an old album!!!!" records is a first pressing of the self-titled minor threat ep compilation

btw on the topic of classic east coast punk or similar sounding bands i recommend Blank Stare, Deep Wound, Gray Matter, Nation of Ulysses, and Youth of Today

and of course any "obligatory classics" of post-punk esp. Mission of Burma and Minutemen if you dont listen to em already

also if you at all like the more powerviolencey side of hardcore i really recommend Iron Lung (especially Sexless // No Sex)

i can also give a Minnesotan recommendation for the band Cows, which is kind of punk kind of post-punk kind of noise rock, and more entertaining than the other Minnesotan punk band everyone cares more about (Husker Du)

[silvertone]

youth of today sucks!!!!!!


nation of ulysses and gray matter are G0AT Though. also the replacements are The Minnesota Band imo

[squirrelfriend]

same

[Samus Aran]

also the replacements are The Minnesota Band imo

i guess that's true yeah. as far as punk goes, the replacements are the most well-known minnesota band, then husker du after them largely for zen arcade

[C.Mongler]

i have a lot of replacements shit already duh  and i've loved husker du and mission of burma as a wee lad, got into them the same time i started listening to THE FUGAZI HITS but i've been getting deeper into the discography lately which i probably need to do for the former mentioned bands

and i've listened to nation of ulysses b4, but i need to get some of their shit ON WAX. ian svenonius is actually still really active in the dc scene and he's around a lot; i actually was going ham in the pit with him at a priests show a while back even lol. though he is still pretty fuckin' radical and kinda weird, but ya know, SO AM I

but yeah i need to get in on a bunch of old shit too, there's so many fuckin' bands that came out in that period it's hard 2 keep up with it and still listen to contemporary shit 

also i have a first press of gorilla biscuit's start today 

[C.Mongler]

ALSO ALSO i got my bootleg of MBV's Loveless yesterday and of course it sounds like ass 

i mean it'll do since official presses ARE SO DAMN EXPENSIVE but yeah clearly a press of like a CD rip, very hollow sounding and lacks the warmth and crispness of most vinyl masters. probably would sound better to plug my phone in but whatever THIS IS A NOVELTY HOBBY

[squirrelfriend]

that sounds like an assault to my ears. a vinyl rip of a digital lo-fi recording smdh

[C.Mongler]

i mean i didn't buy it to listen to it i bought it for the novelty lol

if you want to donate to my patreon so i can get a $200 OG UK pressing i'll gladly do so 

[squirrelfriend]

should have gone to one of their shows when i had the chance in high school
i live in flyover country

[Samus Aran]

why has there still been no legitimate repress of loveless? it'd sell like hotcakes c'mon guys

[C.Mongler]

why has there still been no legitimate repress of loveless? it'd sell like hotcakes c'mon guys

no fucking idea; in fact there was a CD-only remaster released in like, 2012, i think? but yeah it's one of the most sought after records by indie/punk/gazin' record collectors, it would easily sell out with a run of even just like 5,000; FREE MONEY
