Discharge were a famous United Kingdom Anarcho-punk band.

Their heavy guitar-driven sound and anti-melodic screamed vocals earned an early crossover appeal to fans of speedmetal. Their songs focused on anarchist and pacifist themes emphasizing the grisly effects of nuclear war and capitalism. The group released several E.P.'s in 1980 (Realities of War, Fight Back, Decontrol), one E.P. in 1981 (Never Again), and an L.P. in 1982 (Hear Nothing, See Nothing, Say Nothing), among other releases.

The drum beat cum punk subgenre d-beat is named after the group.
