Title: Minor Threat – First Two 7"s
Year/Genre: 1984, Punk
Condition: New

Cultural Facts:

1. Dischord’s D.C. network (all-ages halls, matinees, benefit shows) treated hardcore as community infrastructure, not a nightlife industry.

2. The scene documented itself through flyers, tape-trading, and Sutter’s harDCore zine—these songs spread as “proof” of a new local code.

3. Grey-cover pressings reflect Dischord’s keep-it-in-print ethic in a city where shows at places like the Wilson Center/9:30 were volatile but organized.
