Take A Stand: A Hardcore Thread

Wikipedia

Hardcore punk (usually referred to simply as hardcore) is a punk rock music genre and subculture that originated in the late 1970s. Hardcore music is generally faster, heavier, and more abrasive than regular punk rock. The origin of the term "hardcore punk" is uncertain. The Vancouver-based band D.O.A. may have helped to popularize the term with the title of their 1981 album, Hardcore '81. Hardcore historian Steven Blush said that the term "hardcore" is also a reference to the sense of being "fed up" with the existing punk and new wave music. Blush also states that the term refers to "an extreme: the absolute most Punk." One definition of the genre is "a form of exceptionally harsh punk rock."

Hardcore has spawned the straight edge movement and its associated submovements, hardline and youth crew. Hardcore was heavily involved with the rise of the independent record labels in the 1980s, and with the DIY ethics in underground music scenes. It has influenced a number of music genres which have experienced mainstream success, such as alternative rock, grunge, alternative metal, metalcore, thrash metal, post-hardcore, and hip-hop.

Hardcore sprouted underground scenes across the United States in the early 1980s particularly in Washington, D.C., California, New York, New Jersey, and Boston—as well as in Australia, Canada and the United Kingdom.

While traditional hardcore has never experienced mainstream commercial success, some of its early pioneers have garnered appreciation over time. Black Flag's Damaged, Minutemen's Double Nickels on the Dime and Hüsker Dü's New Day Rising were included in Rolling Stone's list of The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time in 2003 and Dead Kennedys have seen one of their albums reach gold status over a period of 25 years. Although the music started in English-speaking western countries, scenes have also existed in Brazil, Japan, Europe and the Middle East.

What does it mean to you? How does it affect your life? UB/TIHC/Other fests.
Cheerwine. Post pictures of merch and shows. Be respectful.

i have a super neat 1st pressing of Charles Bronson's 2nd 7" on grey, YA001. $500 or a six pack of Kirin.

[bung life]

all silliness aside, The Repos might be the only hardcore band i still listen to with any regularity.

Cheerwine.

Is this a hardcore thing? I know a guy who books shows in Nashville who is also all about some Cheerwine. Am I missing out on some sort of joke? I just thought I liked Cheerwine because of it's great taste and refreshing effervescence.

It was most definitely a joke on my part but all of my friends who I have met through going to hardcore shows are really into Cheerwine and introduced me to it. That and Baja Blast Mountain Dew. I don't get it anymore than you do.

The Repos are really great. I love Youth Attack Records.
I would highly recommend taking a listen to Stoic Violence and Violent Reaction.

i actually have Stoic Violence's demo cassette as well! One of them sent it to me when I ordered some stuff from his label, i like it a lot. Violent Reaction is super neat, but I don't own any of their records.

My Repos/Ropes collection, however, is ******** stellar and only keeps growing.

Yeah, those dudes are super cool. They had some Creem and Altered Boys cassettes with them last time they played here for sale but I was so broke at the time. I got the Violent Reaction 7" when they played here with The Flex (UK). Also a sick band. Ever listen to Gag?

Chrissy Columbine

Lots of the bands on this list should be moved to a classic rock list, but that's just my opinion

I agree. I honestly don't have the attention span to sit here and make my own list
so I copy and pasted the list from Wiki and added a few videos for reference.
I may get around to edit it eventually. Maybe.

Cheerwine is pretty nice but Baja Blast might be one of the most foul drinks on this Earth.

do you guys have Rocket Fizz near you? every soft drink enthusiast should visit Rocket Fizz.

[Slag10]

I do, it seems. Will have to check it out next time I'm in Nashville.

Yeah, Baja Blast is nasty. I went through a Pitch Black phase but it's nearly impossible to find any around Atlanta (actually I think anywhere outside of the internet for that matter). I think it was discontinued. I've never had Rocket Fizz but I'm all about some Cheerwine and Jones Cola.
