I'm not sure if it's fair to say that Minor Threat & the other DC bands on Dischord had a hard time cracking my native Baltimore, 60-odd km to the NE, as I was away at university in upstate NY. But at least 1 B'more band recorded a song called "I Hate DC," a common sentiment among Baltimorons then.

I didn't suffer from parochialism, so I liked the Slickee Boys, a DC act managed by the Skip noted on the album cover. The late Skip Groff--DJ, producer, label boss, record store owner--also guided Ian McKaye's Teen Idles. Inner Ear was the local studio of choice: daily.bandcamp.com/lists/inner-ear-studio-label-profile
