20 Years of Dischord

Editor's Review:

After three years in production, Dischord Records has released an absolutely incredible 73-track retrospective that includes six live videos and a book with a history written by Henry Rollins. Dischord's mission has been to document the D.C. punk scene, and as proof, they offer us 50 different tracks from 50 different bands over a 20-year span. The history is inspiring, the music is utterly creative. Few labels have near the legacy of Dischord, and they are truly a model for the independent music industry. The set includes 23 unreleased tracks including the first song Minor Threat ever played together and an unreleased Fugazi track from the Margin Walker days. Holy low-key hardcore, Batman! Don't think twice, go get it.
