  Minor Threat - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Minor Threat was a short-lived but incredibly influential hardcore punk band from Washington DC, often credited with starting the straight edge movement.
Minor Threat's song "Guilty of Being White" led to some accusations of racism, but MacKaye has strongly denied such intentions and said that some listeners misinterpreted his words.
Minor Threat played their last show on September 23, 1983 with Go go band Trouble Funk and the Big Boys, ending with Last Song, which was the original title of Salad Days.

 tonevendor.com :. Minor Threat - Out of Step LP
The only official album Minor Threat ever released was a mere eight songs — but that was enough.
Building on the promise and fire of the band's earlier singles, Out of Step instantly became iconic for American hardcore, not to mention for the D.C. scene, for years to come, as well as any number of bands who conflated personal and social politics.
Even if it requires the lyric sheet to catch what's being said in particular, there's less in the way of declarative statements of purpose and more expressions of looming worries, his conversational asides adding a touch of melancholy even at the most high-volume moments.

This LP was recorded at a top studio in Stockholm, has a full color cover and insert, comes on color vinyl and features original cover art by Pushead himself.
DS 13's sound on this LP is similar to the last LP, the sound has progressed (regressed) into a more early 80's raw thrash sound.
I would compare DS 13 to early 80's HC bands like Minor Threat, Poison Idea and such, but I really feel they have a distinct hardcore sound all their own.

he deems Nike's co-optation of the Minor Threat logo, as well as the iconic imagery from the band's eight-song 1981 self-titled EP, for the three-date skateboarding event.

The last stop on Nike's Major Threat Tour, sponsored by the company's SB (that's skateboarding) division, hits the Sayreville Skatepark in Sayreville, New Jersey, on Thursday, and will feature demonstrations from skaters Brian Anderson, Omar Salazar and Danny Supa.

 MTV News - Nike Apologizes To Minor Threat For Co-Opting Band's Logo, Artwork
The poster, for Nike's Major Threat skateboarding demo tour (used to promote its newest line of SB shoes), misappropriated not only the Minor Threat logo, but the imagery from the band's 1981 self-titled EP and its 1988 Complete Discography.
MacKaye, also the frontman for Fugazi, was incensed that the company never sought his or his label's permission to reinterpret the classic hardcore record's cover, which depicts a bald man sitting on a stoop, head resting in his folded arms.
Despite the apology, a Dischord Records spokesperson said once MacKaye returns from touring with his current band, the Evens, later this week, there will be a meeting involving all the members of Minor Threat — MacKaye, Lyle Preslar, Brian Baker, Steve Hansgen and Jeff Nelson — to explore the legal options available to them.

I recently heard about Nike's appropriation of the Minor Threat LP image and, like you, I am sickened by it.
From where I stand, the image is and should be public domain (that they merely "quoted" the Minor Threat image instead of reproducing it mechanically should be irrelevant).
We need to point our attention toward a culture in which Nike can hijack the Minor Threat image and use it for an agenda that runs counter to the spirit of the image.

With Dave Smalley of Boston's DYS on vocals and Brian Baker (ex-Minor Threat/Meatmen) on guitar, this DC quartet was something of a supergroup; with co-production by Ian MacKaye, the debut sounds a lot like Minor Threat.
