Title: Dischord is an institution!
Review: So much manufactured dreck out there these days that it's hard to even listen to the radio. Thank God for Dischord!I've had this set about 3 weeks now and it's hardly left my CD player. Beautiful packaging, great music. I knew Minor Threat, Fugazi, and much of the old harDCore stuff (and love it!), but some of the stuff from Dischord's little known second generation of bands on disc two (most of them defunct) is like a revelation. I suspect I'll be exploring some of these artists in the near future.My only gripe (and it's a minor one) is that all 50 bands get equal billing. Bands like Fugazi, Jawbox, Minor Threat are simply in a different league than some of the acts, but they all get just one song; it must be said that there are a couple of stinkers. But that's okay, 'cause you already have everything Fugazi has put out. Right?!! And that egalitarianism is what makes Dischord something special.Highly recommended.
