Dischord Downloads
Dischord quietly released its entire discography as 320k MP3 downloads this week. There are a few ways to use the Dischord Download Store: You can buy albums on vinyl and a get free download, you can buy pretty much any album as a download for the set price of $7, or you can buy a block of “Digital Credits,” 15 for $10. The credits system was “chose[n] … to avoid the the gratuitous surcharges that make credit card companies rich… [and because] we also thought a credit system would encourage people to experiment with various tracks from different artists.”
Here are some Catbird picks for you to use up those credits:
Beauty Pill - Cigarette Girl From The Future
Ex- Smart Went Crazy guys’ 2001 debut EP
Dag Nasty - Can I Say and Wig Out at Denko’s
From ‘86 and ‘87, two softcore hardcore gems from a band that was “emo” back when “emo” didn’t mean “terrible”
Minor Threat - Complete Discography and Fugazi - Thirteen Songs
Duh.
