Fleabag - S/T Demotape

I saw this band sometime in June of this year and immediately fell in love with everything about them. Fleabag's stage presence is what you'd expect out of the rather "shy kid" ethos that they carry around. I was too intimidated to talk to their vocalist and it makes me feel like a total asshole. Their drummer used to be in Rosa (but really, they sound nothing like that). It's worth noting that there's a fuck-up in one of these songs due to tape-complications. Best three dollars I ever spent, and it's one of those albums that has gotten me through moving twice this year and experiencing heartbreak. I tend to be bad at describing things, but this could be called female-fronted kawaii/artsy/queer/pop-punk or something along those lines. Hopefully this will make you want to cuddle with a transkid with big glasses. It makes me feel okay about my social problems.

Minor Threat - "Salad Days EP"

This is, in my opinion, the best album of all time! DC hardcore band Minor Threat ushered in the age of more melodic posthardcore with the release of this 7". This three-song, out-of-print EP is the bridge between the Teen Idles/Minor Threat era and the Fugazi/Embrace era. Yes, it isn't as in your face, but it's still Minor Threat, it's still on Dischord, and it still rocks my face off! If this isn't on the list of albums that changed your life, there's something very obviously wrong with you. The insert to this album, the lyrics, the cover photo, everything about this is pure iconography of the golden age of DCHC.
