Even though the music sounds really aggressive, especially to my parents at the time, there really isn't anything bad in a Minor Threat record, it's way better for kids to grow up on this stuff than let's say ... hmmmmm ... anything else. It's funny to think about everyone I knew was growing up on Hardcore Punk. Soon enough it'll be played on Classic Rock stations everywhere tagged as the songs we grew up with ...
