So, I'm starting to listen more and more to punk.... again (and to be honest, I don't really know why I stop). This is one of the greatest hardcore punk-band ever. These guys, fronted by Ian MacKaye, did by mistake create the whole Straight Edge sub-culture, and are basically known as the first "real" hardcore band (by the side of such bands as Black Flag and Bad Brains) They started out in 1980, after the break up of the Teen Idles, where MacKaye and some other guy(s?) of MT played, and though they broke up in '83, they've changed the world. Thanks to them, kids all over the world are wearing X's on the backs of their hands, none of them drinking, smoking or other stuff like that. All because of a song of 47secs. Pretty amazing, huh?
