I find it strange that Minor Threat is on here but Fugazi isn't. Minor Threat is obviously influential in hardcore, they even coined the term "straight edge", and they are underrated musicians. But Fugazi are one of the most influential, experimental bands of all time. Minor Threat influenced almost every band after them within the confines of hardcore, but Fugazi influenced pretty much every band with any serious interest in or association with DIY and independent music.

Zach this is going to shock you but great music didn't end when you stopped listening to it. Fugazi especially are groundbreaking and varied. Just because you stopped taking interests in whole genres of music that developed after you turned a certain age does not mean everything is shit now. Your close minded ness after a certain point is absurd, inconsistent and personal to you. I say this as someone on the spectrum. Please open your mind beyond where you've closed it shut.
