Hardcore.
 

Any Hardcore kids at TPWW? There's a metal thread so there might as well be one for Hardcore.

Going to see Madball tonight and it should be a good time.

My favourite Hardcore champion was Al Snow.

Honestly I never figured out what the difference between Hardcore and punk is. I heard Black Flag and Dead Kennedys being called hardcore bands.

i used to listen to it a lot more in high school but i'll still put it on once in a while. saw kill your idols last year. they weren't very good. maybe because it was a day show.

Grew up a Hardcore Holly fan.

I don't think I like any "hardcore" bands.

Big Minor Threat/Germs/DK fan, liked Bad Brains before they went Rasta and Henry Rollins is god.

My gf is into that nonsense. Hardcore music that call it. Hardcore noise is more like it!

Dime piece though.

Never listened to any that I know of pop a few vids up

See all the bands you mention are just punk bands to me. I don't see what makes them different from other bands considered to be in the punk genre.

Hard core is basically faster and heavier, less oi.

It all depends on the era. Bad Brains, Minor Threat, Black Flag etc. are considered the pioneers of what Hardcore was. It was basically a faster/heavier version of punk. Then you get into the New York Hardcore scene with Agnostic Front, Gorilla Biscuits, Project X, etc.

My personal favorites are Madball, Strife, Trial, One Life Crew, Madball, Earth Crisis. A lot of 90's stuff. Some people nowadays like to call bands like The Ghost Inside Hardcore which really isn't the case. More metalcore and shit.

Here's a good example of what was going down in the 90's...

Integrity is more on the metal side of things but still considered by many a Hardcore band. Saw them live a few times and they always killed it.

Do Converge and "Calculating Infinity"-era Dillinger Escape Plan count? Both are seriously tasty.

They are definitely within the subgenre and they are awesome. Especially Converge.

Fuck it. This thread is now all things "-core".

i'm going to assume that doesn't mean horrorcore. i'll save that for a different thread.

but, since we're doing all -cores now, this song has been playing somewhere in the back of my head since i heard it a decade ago.

Oh, you're busting out that Christian noise. Haha. I was never Norma Jean's biggest fan. But I remember back in the day when everyone was all about them. When it comes to the Christian shit, I prefer old all of the old bands that used to be on Facedown Records. Sinai Beach, No Innocent Victim, Figure Four, Comeback Kid.

i only listened to their first 2 albums and only liked the first. never listened to anything you just mentioned. i probably won't if it's all christian based shit. jesus and i parted ways long ago.

Who doesn't love a bit horrorcore:D

I discovered a new "core" the other day: Crustcore.

Sounds like Entombed-esque guitars mixed with hardcore.

I prefer The Chariot to Norma Jean.

not representative what of what they normally do, obviously, but this is the only chariot song that i really love.

I'm an Atheist, but good music is good music.

Sinai Beach and Comeback Kid are both decent. Certainly never noticed either of them being overtly Christian.

I prefer post-hardcore because GENRES ARE COOL

I saw CBK last year with the original singer. Was pretty rad. Sinai Beach is also playing this month. Used to see them practically every week nearly a decade ago. Debating on whether I should go or not.

Oh, shit. Converge are playing in Manchester at the beginning of August. I think I might need to hook myself up with that tasty shizzle. I saw them at the end of 2012, with Touche Amore supporting them, it was pretty good. Though, saying that, I expected the audience to go fuckin' mental and turn in to one violent maelstrom of death, but that never happened.

Norma Jean are also playing in April/May, so I may go to that as well.

Converge are to be supported by:

Oh, I had forgotten about the band, The End. Their first album, Transfer Trachea Reverberations, is kind of a Calculating Infinity-era Dillinger rip-off, but I like the tracks.

I prefer what they evolved into on their next album, personally. Still kinda generic, but I found it more interesting.
