Minor Threat was the unequivocal Washington, D.C., hardcore punk rock'n'roll banding, stage setting the stylus for the straightedge punk bowel movement of the other '80s. Led by vocaliser Ian MacKaye, the striation was staunchly independent and fiercely unplayful. Through their songs, the group rejected drugs and alcohol-dependent drink, espoused anti-establishment political relation, and lED a call for self-awareness. Every song was fast, sharp, and lethal, a great deal clocking in at but around a instant. Their speed and frenzy oft hid their fairly catchy melodies, only the band's primary map was to vent furore. Over the course of action of trey years, Minor Threat released two EPs, one album, and several singles, all of which were quite pop in the American spunk underground. Their records and concerts helped spawn straightedge, an American punk lifestyle based on the group's intense, clean political orientation. Following the disbandment of Minor Threat, MacKaye formed Fugazi, wHO became one of the more pop American indie rock bands of the late '80s and '90s.


The origins of Minor Threat lie in the Teen Idles, Ian MacKaye's first stria. MacKaye formed the Teen Idles patch he was attendance Wilson High School in Washington, D.C., and after he gradatory in 1980, he founded the Dischord record label with the intent of putting out his group's records through the mark. Shortly after commencement ceremony, the Teen Idles had humbled up and MacKaye had formed Minor Threat with early Idles drummer Jeff Nelson, early Government Issue bassist Brian Baker, and guitar player Lyle Preslar. By the end of the year, Minor Threat had released the singles "Pocket-size Threat" and "Straight Edge," and had played many concerts along the East Coast. Throughout 1981, they followed this same design, playacting a lot of concerts and releasing 7" singles. That year, they likewise released deuce EPs, Minor Threat and In My Eyes, both of which compiled their singles.


In 1982, bassist Baker had left and was replaced by Steve Hansen; Baker by and by played with the Meatmen, Junkyard, and Dag Nasty. With Hansen on plug-in, the chemical group recorded their only uncut album, Out of Step. Upon its 1983 waiver, the album became popular within the underground and Minor Threat were decorous alternative stars, which didn't sit well with MacKaye. By the end of the year, he stone-broke up the band. MacKaye and Nelson continued to run Dischord, which thrived well into the '90s. The mate likewise played together in some other band, Egg Hunt. Following the disbandment of Egg Hunt, Nelson played with a diversity of bands -- including Three and Senator Flux -- earlier devoting his energies to running Dischord. MacKaye played with Embrace, Skewbald, and Pailhead earlier forming Fugazi, world Health Organization carried on the esthetic, if not the sound, of Minor Threat.

`Watchmen' aims to answer typical superhero films

SAN DIEGO —

Zack Snyder is standing inside a 9,000 lb, tanklike alloy pod in the center of the crowded Comic-Con floor. He nonchalantly points out the features of the Owl Ship, a real-life interpretation of the flying vehicle from the award-winning graphic novel "Watchmen."


"The Owl Ship's got to have an eight-track," Snyder says. "There's also a coffee divine. That's really important to the Owl Ship."


Snyder, whose adaptation of the graphical novel "300" grossed more than $200 million, says directing "Watchmen" isn't a job he would have sought, merely it's one that suits him fine: Staying genuine to a beloved story that dismantles the superhero archetype.


"These modern superheroes, like Iron Man, Batman and Superman, they're our mythology and (author) Alan (Moore) sort of deconstructed that mythology and said no, they're us," Snyder says. "Other superhero movies - 'Iron Man,' 'Batman' - they're like a melange off all the different mythology. The Joker, he's a great character, merely there's no bible for how that character should be. ... People sort of group 'Watchmen' with the Batman and Iron Man superhero movies, (but) those things don't have quintessential and set works of literature that support (them). They do, but it's all gap out."


Snyder says his version of Warner Bros. "Watchmen," slated for release side by side March, is more true to the source substantial than was the Oscar-winning "No Country for Old Men."


He sticks to the story because of the complex concepts involved, he says, such as exploring superheroes' honourable and moral challenges.


The chronicle "deconstructs heroes. ... It genial of takes it all the way," Snyder says. "How far do you take this superhero thing? Do you take a cat out of a tree or do you create world peace? That's really the dilemma that they face. Superman has the ability to go to all the populace leaders and say, 'I will pop all of you if you don't behave.' He could do that, but wherefore doesn't he?"


Comic-Con opened Thursday at the San Diego Convention Center.
