Intro

HardcorePunk

Hardcore punk (or hardcore) is an underground music genre that originated in the late 1970s, following the mainstream success of punk rock. Hardcore is generally faster, thicker, and heavier than earlier punk rock, while its vocalists usually scream, chant and use spoken word poetry. 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, metalcore, grunge, thrash metal, emo, and post-hardcore.
