Minor Threat - "First Two 7"s" with Scott Crawford and Eduardo Nunes

In this episode, we dig into Minor Threat and In My Eyes, the two EPs that make up First Two 7”s. Across twelve blistering tracks, Minor Threat laid down the foundation for DC hardcore with a sound that was fast, focused, and unapologetically direct. Our guests are Eduardo Nunes of Discologist and Scott Crawford, the filmmaker behind Salad Days and Creem: America’s Only Rock ’n’ Roll Magazine. Together, we explore the band’s early impact, the emergence of Straight Edge, and the lasting power of a group that never stuck around long but still changed everything. This episode centers around records produced by Skip Groff and engineered by Don Zientara at Inner Ear Studios. From the birth of Straight Edge to the tension behind “Out of Step,” we explore how these two short records created a lifelong blueprint for punk communities around the world.
