Discharge Warning

In my previous life as a fool, I didn't really like Discharge. I picked up the Clay Punk Singles CD around 1990, and it didn't hit me the way that bands like Sick Of It All and Cro-Mags were, and it wasn't as catchy as Clay Records labelmates, G.B.H., so I shelved that CD pretty quick, and remained pretty indifferent to the band for the next 25 years or so. When I was obsessed with collecting G.B.H. singles around 2015, I figured that I'd check out Discharge again, and while I enjoyed them enough to add their stuff to my iTunes, I was never moved enough to chase down their records.

When I was going through Tim's collection I wasn't surprised to find some Discharge in there. This totally makes sense and it something that I would expect that he was into in the early/mid-80's. Seeing this Warning 12 inch single in there made me want to check out Discharge again, and holy shit, I've been loving it. No big deal, just me showing up 40 years late to the party.

I don't know why I wasn't getting this back in the late 80's/early 90's. It is stripped down, raw and aggressive. Fuck, this is so good and right now I can't get enough of it. Give me more of this.
