Talk:Minor Threat

message: Hi. I added a few tags  to the individual songs of the group. It would be nice if someone who knows about the group and cares about the organisation of content could do these mergers. Thanks. Pascal.Tesson 21:01, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Typo?

message: Shouldn't Rancid's album cover for ...And Out Come The Wolves be mentioned? 65.185.191.51 03:06, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It is on the article for First two 7"s on a 12", I don't know that it needs to be here. Maybe it should though, in the appropriate place. Maybe a section on cultural impact, including Major Threat, the SXE subulture and homages like that? --Switch 10:28, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I think a section on the long-term legacy and impact of the band would be a good idea. The Rancid album cover would be a notable example of the legacy. Straight edge would also be a good sub-section here. Wall Screamer (talk) 20:33, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: ...And Out Come The Wolves

message: Under early years one user added the "guilty of being white" issue, something that probably should not be in "early years" as it has little to do with the band's history in the form it is now. I propose that it either be rewritten to include the reasons why the song was written (in an interview MacKaye explains that in his youth he was beat up just for being white) and how it ties in to the bands youth, or that it be moved/removed. --Lserven 22:09, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Early Years

message: This sentence "Minor Threat's song "Straight Edge" became the eventual basis of the straight edge movement, while the band often professed their own "straight edge" ideals." doesn't make any sense. If you click on the citation you will read an interview where Ian MacKaye frankly distances himself from it. He says IN THE CITATION that straight edge is JUST A SONG and that he does not participate in such a movement.   —Preceding unsigned comment added by 162.40.241.146 (talk) 19:09, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Several reliable sources including Robert T Wood's articles, American Hardcore: A Tribal History, and Our Band Could be your Life state this. Iam Mckaye has stated that he never meant to start a movement but he has never denied that Straight edge took its name from the song or that it influenced the lifestyle. --Guerillero | My Talk  19:23, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Take down the Straight Edge statement

message: Is there any source whatsoever for the bit about SSD fans--or any straightedgers--swatting beer bottles out of people's hands at shows? I mean, I used to hear those stories too, but it just reminds me too much of the never-confirmed story of protesters spitting on soldiers returning from Vietnam...everyone seemed to be sure it happened to their co-worker's wife's nephew or whatever, but without a source it's just hearsay in the service of promoting a caricature. 66.162.203.18 (talk) 17:50, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm guessing there's an interview somewhere that makes reference to it. Perhaps American Hardcore has something in there? For the time being, however, I added a Citation Needed tag. Wall Screamer (talk) 18:30, 30 June 2013 (UTC)
