"However, in another of their paradoxes, they offset this calculated, artsy objectivity with an intense moralism, an undying compassion for the disenfranchised and, most keenly, the complete absence of cynicism. The music is contagiously uncynical: rent with the joy of empowerment, a childlike naivety (Boon’s lyrics often centred around an image of the Minutemen as “child soldiers” of The Cause) and beneath it all, what you might define as love."

The Quietus | An Econo History Of The Minutemen
Wonderful retrospective on the Minutemen. Never going to not like this band.
This is a place for me to post things I'd like to keep track of. Sincerely, Greg Ruben.
