I love the Minutemen. They are one of my all-time favorite bands -- but I have a tough time nailing down their sound at all. They are kind of all over the place. From the thrash of Buzz or Howl Under the Influence of Heat to the near free form punk/jazz of Double Nickels on the Dime (which, as we all know, is the greatest hardcore album ever recorded).


They are all over the map, but to me, there is no mistaking Watt's bass lines and the sound of D. Boon's guitar...

Don't leave out the greatness of Hurley on drums. The best punk rhythm section, mainly cuz they actually act like a section.

Even seen the We Jam Econo documentary? The moment when Ian MacKaye holds up the post-it note leaving him a message that D Boon died is heartbreaking. He still has the note.
