Discharge to brytyjska legenda sceny HC/Punk - zespół powstał w 1977 roku i z małymi przerwami działa do dziś. EP "Why" z 1981 roku i wydany w 1982 roku pełniak "Hear Nothing See Nothing Say Nothing" to absolutna klasyka HC/Punk i stylu D-beat. Materiały Discharge z początku lat 80-tych XX wieku stały się inspiracją dla wielu muzyków grających Punk, HC, Grindcore i szeroko pojęty Metal.
Niestety coś poprzestawiało się chłopakom w główkach, bo wydany w 1986 roku "Grave New World" przynosi zmianę stylistyki na... coś innego - dla mnie ta płyta to niesłuchalne gówno i wcale się nie dziwię, że zespół się do nie nie przyznaje. Później jest raz lepiej, a raz gorzej, ale zespół nagrywa (bardzo rzadko, ale jednak nagrywa) i gra koncerty do dzisiaj.
