Discharge

Musical Group

Discharge is an English hardcore punk band formed in 1977, known as pioneers of the D-beat sound and for short, aggressive, politically charged songs. They influenced later extreme and thrash metal bands.

Formed in 1977 in England. Early 1980s releases such as Hear Nothing, See Nothing, Say Nothing and Why are widely cited as genre landmarks. Their sound influenced later hardcore and thrash acts; Metallica covered "Free Speech for the Dumb" on Garage Inc.

Three DeBaser reviews highlight Discharge's abrasive, fast hardcore and overtly political, anti‑war lyrics. Reviewers emphasize raw production, short explosive songs and the band's influence on later heavy music. Hear Nothing, See Nothing, Say Nothing and Why are presented as genre landmarks.

For:Fans of hardcore punk, punk historians, listeners interested in political and noisy punk

 Crude, dirty, ignorant, nasty music. That scratches your teeth.

 There's little else to add: "Hear Nothing, See Nothing, Say Nothing" is a fundamental album of the '80s and I believe that no enthusiast of the genre can do without such a record.

 Discharge influenced many future bands, it's said that speed metal, Slayer's or Metallica's thrash, fast and aggressive music originated from them.
