Record of the DayThe album that owned the day

11:25
Waiting Room
Fugazi · 13 Songs
† Liner note
Fugazi, the band Ian MacKaye formed after Minor Threat; Dischord Records, five-dollar shows and a famous refusal to sell merch, punk as a set of ethics as much as a sound.

Refused · The Shape Of Punk To Come (Deluxe Edition)

Refused broke up months after The Shape of Punk to Come (1998); the Swedish band New Noise became its manifesto and outlived them.

Napalm Death · Scum (Full Dynamic Range 2012 Edition)
Napalm Death, two days running.
