20 Years of DISCHORD

growing up in washington DC.

i was there for alot of this, It's a great primer of social life and issue.

the evolution of a scene and it's peoples plays out on the these 3 discs.

DO YOU DIG DISCHORD BANDS? which ones?

RITES OF SPRING?

obviously fugazi...
lately q and not u has turned into my favorite band
faraquet was something else
the make up
the delta '72
some bluetip(the stuff my friend aaron played drums on)
minor threat
rites of spring

Rites of Spring. I first heard them in 1985 and I still listen to them to this day. One of the best bands ever and the namessake of the unfortunate moniker "emocore". If you ask me, alot of this stuff they are calling emocore doesn't even touch the Rites of Spring.
-drink deep, it's just a taste and it might not come this way again.

ROS were killer. beefeater and embrace were the sister bands. they were OK.

how about the FAITH?

One of about three labels where I don't mind sending my money. So good and soooo cheap!

I am intersted, but lazy. does anyone wanna put a little ink in htis thread where I can find out some more about what is on this 3 disc dischord compidompy?
-how cheap are we talking about?
Dave

Fugazi
Lungfish
Hoover
Rites of Spring
N.O.U.
Make-Up



I remember years ago when people would listen to crap lick Severin and High Back Chairs just because they were on Dischord.

I was never a fan of the later Dischord. So my list reflects that:

Minor Threat, Faith, Void, Embrace, ROS, SOA, Teen Idles, Embrace, Fugazi....

i can't believe no one has mentioned Jawbox.

but, yeah. dischord has been nothing if not consistent. i'm loving the Q + Not U right now, as well. I like the new one, Different Damage, even if it's a little different from the debut.

NOU yeah! yeah! classic. always be a fave.

i think when I'm 45 and Fugazi are 60 I'll still be sending my $9 ppd to Dischord for their records. (And i've got 3 turntables now, so even in 2030 when there's no one left to fix 'em, i have back-ups.)

i like Minor threat, void, faith, teen idles, SOA, and Dag Nasty

and i forgot Goverment Issue and Youth Brigade
how the hell did I forget those bands.

Totally. I have been since '85 and will as long as they are kicking.

Fugazi; being the great combo of ROS and minor threat (+) and being the one band that has stayed the test of time and grown with me from the start is my all time favorite.

I have been waiting impatiently ALL WEEK for my 20 YEARS OF DISCHORD to arrive.

Minor Threat. Obsessed. 9353. Those guys. Not the dischord guys.

i'm glad this thread was posted because there is a fugazi song that i want to download but i cant remember the name of it. "she does nothing to deserve it.he touches her because he..." i can't remember the rest. sound familiar to anyone? please, let me know, it's been driving me crazy! -gravy-

oh shit!!! i totally forgot about jawbox! add that to my list most definitely

I believe that you are refering to 'Suggestion' off of 13 SONGS.

Fuck yes dischord rules. I just bought this boxed set. I have three words for you:

Fugazi
Rites of Spring
Lungfish

all the Flex Your Head era stuff. what's everybody's fav songs on disc three of the box set? i'd hafta pick the VOID tracks, i love that version of Black Jewish & Poor

fucking VOID.

bubba dupree and the feedback.

fucking FAITH.

bubblegum pink vinyl makes my dingle dangle

i've always had a chubby for lungfish since i first heard 'em. omon looks just like an x-roomate of mine.
