One of the most beautiful things to revisit from year to year. I remember listening to this while my mom would cook dinner back in the late 1980s. So it would be playing on the stereo and i would just play it over and over like an automaton, i kept thinking this was the joy division or cure version of hardcore music or a variant of post punk basically and feeling energized by it. Now it's more of a sad thing, of a time gone by and a mother gone too. At the same time i was separated from a love and became a father at a way to early age, this was a soundtrack to that separation too, lots of elements. I have no idea how happy or unhappy Guy and the guys were with this set, all i know is it's served me well, thank you. I've listened to this all through my life and taken away different meaning at those different times from one simple set.
There was something about it that made me think of my life and all the lives that came before. It felt so optimistic back then, that optimism slowly waned over the years. Sad how happy this sounds in comparison to todays music that is made. We were not even ready or aware of all that was to come. We had it so good back then. Yet we were kind of depressed a little bit, you can hear it in the emotion and the lyrics, we've never had it as good as this since. Just a endless series of downgrades and "quantative easing" lol into oblivion.
Minor Threat similarly trended away from a classic hardcore sound (so to speak) toward a final 7-inch bearing introspective, existential lyrics set against a more subdued musical approach.

And once I'm opened I can't be closed...”

Patience is like the opposite of "waiting room"
Reminiscent of Minor Threat's 'Stumped' imo...
