Living in the DC metro area, Minor Threat is a huge part of the history of the punk music scene and so I was really excited to get this book. I don't know why I expected more writing pieces (there are just a few essays accompanying the photography, with the standout essay being from Zack de la Rocha) but the book didn’t really need a bunch of writing to hold up the photos. Reading it was fast and immersive, and while I’ve never been to a show quite like what I saw in these photos I definitely am able to imagine what it must’ve been like. I’ve also been torturing my children by blasting MT in the car… with luck it’ll grow on them someday! Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten. Most of my experience of punk visual media is old documentaries like Decline of Western Civilization and Punk's Not Dead. All that stuff's great, but the video is grainy and never remastered (at least not that I've seen and if they even could), so seeing these pictures from that era that are so crisp and up close and just pure quality is pretty amazing. I'm a huge punk fan, but Minor Threat isn't my favorite or anything. This is still a really fun book with some great photography.Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten. This was a FANTSTIC book! The pictures captured in this collection are like a time machine, transporting me right to the pits of a Minor Threat concert. I loved reading the introduction, which provided some great back-story to how these photos came to be. I think this is an awesome book for fans and collectors.Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten. Just a Minor Threat: The Minor Threat Photographs of Glen E. Friedman (by Glen E. Friedman) has Friedman's most iconic images of Minor Threat, the Washington DC Punk Band. Many of these photos have not been seen before. The book also Includes essays by Zack De La Roch, Jello Biafra, and others.A nice book that will have a limited appeal to a narrow audience, but that audience should be enthralled to see these photos. I received "Just a Minor Threat" as part of the LibraryThing Early Reviewers program in exchange for this review. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Just A Minor Threat is a book of Glen E. Friedman's most outstanding photographs of the Washington, DC, band Minor Threat, one of the most influential hardcore punk bands in music history. While the book offers Friedman's best-known photographs of the band, most of the pictures in this volume, shot in 1982 and '83, have never been seen before. The book has writing by Zack de la Rocha, Jello Biafra, Ian F. Svenonius, Alec MacKaye, and Jamie Shanahan. Friedman's own introduction explains how he initially met the band, and the lifelong friendships that grew from there. The first time Friedman made pictures of Minor Threat was in Southern California early in the summer of 1982, then later on their home turf of Washington, DC. At the end of that same year, he shot them at an 'explosive and uncontrollable' performance at CBGB in New York City. In addition to these, Just a Minor Threat also comprises very rare candid and posed photos of the band, including many from the same roll as the now Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

Its a fantastic tabletop book and retrospective for those who lived through those years in that scene, or even those of us who only got to experience the tale end of Hardcore's deathspiral in the 90s and early aughts of local bands and fans desperately trying to keep alive the ethos and aesthetic of these years in a society increasingly moving beyond it.
