Just a Minor Threat: The Minor Threat Photographs of Glen E. Friedman by Glen E Friedman

emotional informative lighthearted reflective medium-paced

4.75

 Just a Minor Threat is a retrospective look at the iconic Minor Threat and their pivotal role in the Hardcore movement and scene through the eyes and lens of Glen Friedman. Personal friend to the band, photographer, and perhaps more widely known for his work in Thrasher and the scene in general, Friedman has long had a store of unpublished photos throughout Minor Threat's career. Here, we're treated to many of them them for the first time alongside tastefully short remembrances and essays by those who knew, saw, or performed with Minor Threat.
Its a fantastic tabletop book and retrospective for those who lived through those years in that scene, or even those of us who only got to experience the tale end of Hardcore's deathspiral in the 90s and early aughts of local bands and fans desperately trying to keep alive the ethos and aesthetic of these years in a society increasingly moving beyond it.
