LET'S GIVE THIS ANOTHER SHOT!!!
Good stuff! Love hardcore! If the song isn't great you won't have to worry about it for very long. You have various generations of hardcore represented nicely. I agree that you should listen t o Minor Threat and you should revisit Bad Brains.
im glad you like it, one of my favs subgenres and bands, you need to try with more post-hc
The thing you are missing is the explosive energy (danger and stench) of a live show.
Movie/Documentary - The Decline of Western Civilization (recorded 1979/1980)
Bad Brains - Big Take Over (Live 1982) CBGB's
MINOR THREAT - 12XU Live (LA Rollerworks 1983)
Different regions alot of times had different sounds., LA, Boston, North West, NY, UK, Sweden, Japan. Italy, Finland, Holland, Norway etc and things sometimes evolved very quickly. 77-80-85-90 etc
Discharge
Reality of War ep 1980
Fight Back ep 1980 (fightback is an awesome dbeat classic song)
Decontrol ep 1980
Never Again ep 1981
Why 12" ep 1981 (my favorite)
State Violence State Control 7" 1982
Hear Nothing See Nothing Say Nothing LP 1982
The majority of the later records are garbage although there are recent records that I hear are ok.
About the question where punk ends and hardcore begins. Its a bit of a misnoma, because hardcore IS punk. Basically after the first wave of punk bands in the 70s, when the scene started to grow more commercial you have a schism in punk, between the more commercial pop punk movement and the hardcorepunk movement. A lot of people, myself included, might argue that hardcore is the actual continuation of the anti establishment and diy mindset in punk.
Also, when you say "this sounds like metal" its often actually metal sounding like hardcorepunk. There is a lot of cross pollination between the two. If you compare the two you might find that the rythm section, meaning drums and bass are often a lot more up front in hc than in metal.
Give it no more shots. Lay it to rest.
Discharge is a whole different beast, totally influential for thrash metal and extreme metal overall (Also they kinda birthed D-beat, a type of drumming that became a whole unique sound for punk)
not to mention the dozens if not hundreds of punk bands that show their allegiance to d-beat by adding "dis" starting words as their band name.
I wouldnt say totally because the influence is somewhat exaggerated. The speed, heavy metal, punk and hard rock influences were stronger on those bands
Metallica was trying to be a diamond head clone, Slayer a venom/judas priest one, Anthrax were way more heavy metal and Megadeth were probably the most influenced ones.
@@RibeiroGames12 My guy, Thrash goes beyond the Big 4. Also, as i said on my comment, They also influenced extreme metal bands (The swedish DM scene for example), the crust punk scene AND the d beat swedish scene (That Is really close to the DM scene)
@molibianco - Not even close to an “expert” on the subject. But for me, it was Englands own *’The Varukers’* who “gave birth” to what we all know & love as *D-beat* today. But then again, if you dig the music who really gives a *’bleep’* which band(s) may & or may not have started it, right?
The consensus is Buzzcocks who first recorded the "d-beat" pattern in the song "You Tear Me Up", late 1977-early 1978.
Minor Threat, Negative Approach. Bad Brains, Fear, 7 Seconds. All great hardcore bands. Soamy more. Black Flag. DOA, MDC SSD, etc
Bad Brains yes!!!
Bad Brains and the original Black Flag with Kieth and the Circle Jerks and now OFF!
@@VaughnBrown1965 OFF is great! Brings me back to my punk days whenI was going to hardcore shows in clubs 1984-86. Seen most everyone Live back then in my youth!!
FEAR was f'n awesome! I'll play some at work for the "kids", and they're blown away.
Negative FX, S.O.A. , and some early British the exploited, GBH, Varukers
I was raised on Agnostic Front, Cro-Mags, and, Murphy's Law! I used to listen to "Age of Quarrel" at LEAST once a day.
RAISED ON IT? lucky you :D
I'm 45 now, but, "We Gotta Know" still makes me want to jump off furniture, and, break s**t!
New Yorker detected
@@fredarsenault8987New Jersey, actually, but, CBGB's was a quick train ride into the city. PATH to Central, then subway to Christopher Street station. Then, just a block to Bowery & Bleeker.
Zen Arcade by Hüsker Dü is a masterpiece to my ears. I never get bored to listen to the whole album :)
I concur. Literally one of the better albums ever made. Although I prefer New Day Rising.
My fave has got to be Land Speed Record. ❤
@@paulmackay7265 New Day Rising is my favorite.
100% Kira should listen to it over and over for a week, like it's 1984 again.
Sick of it All was the shit for us in High School.. and us was basically 4 of us weirdos who loved Hardcore and were Skateboarders in the late 80s
Oh.. and Agnostic Front, Cro-Mags and Sick of it All are all New York Hard Core (NYHC) which was the epicenter IMO.
Nothing like NY Hardcore … still fun, but much tougher and more aggressive. Id add Gorilla Biscuits, as well, just because lol though theres plenty of excellent options. Maybe Madball too.
I love the Circle Jerks! They have always had a top spot on my rotation. So glad to see you get into this side of punk
Circle Jerks rule! My favorite punk band. Anything Kieth does is epic
Check out OFF! Kieths new band. They’re awesome. Dimitri Coates from Burning Brides
If you're trying to get into hard-core punk, might I suggest the bands Bad Brains, Dead Kennedys, Black Flag, D.R.I, Suicidal Tendencies, and Leeway. The latter 3 also have a crossover thrash metal sound.
Punk isn't a sound, it's an ethos, it can sound like metal and still be 100% punk.
I got really into punk and hardcore when i was a kid. I'll never forget the first time i heard Agnostic Front victim in pain in my walkman at school. Absolutely blown away. I felt like i was listening to the most extreme music ever. Same day i first heard Storm Troopers of Death also.
I remeber hearing their early stuff. I was never impressed. Whoever told Roger he can sing should be fired.
@snuffcore9686 if you don't like hardcore that's fine. It's not for everybody.
@@austin_l LOL. i have been listening to hardcore since 1982. I'm just not an Ag Front fan. And the whole racist-adjacent thing... I'm not down with. At all.
I agree with your sentiment that, for many, hardcore is somewhat of an acquired taste. But to quote Vic Bondi: "Normal people did not listen to hardcore, and we liked it like that."
Love those Hardcore punk Reactions. Try some Fear, MDC, Gorilla Biscuits, NoMeansNo, Dag Nasty, Youth of Today or Gang Green
NoMeansNo... anything, preferably early incarnation, a copy of Jason Lamb's book "NoMeansNo: From Obscurity to Oblivion: An Oral History" will make its way to Kira!!! Mark my words.
My friends older bro went to rock against Reagan tour with MDC Reagan youth dead Kennedy's and other bands. I told him how was it. His exact words was he came back home with different shoes 🤣🤘
NoMeansNo "It's Catching Up" off the WRONG album.
@@phillramirez8323 sounds like a successful show to me 😄
@@imaginationofourselves7518 I bet 🤣 he was an old school punker in his teens
Lou and Pete Koller from Sick Of It All published a memoir a couple of years ago. It's a really fun read and has some wild stories in it. Especially the one about the hobo with a paper bag. You'll never guess how that turned out.
Yes! That Cro Mags intro is one of my favorite drum intros of all time! Granted I was only 14 years old when I first heard it. ❤❤❤
No Bad Brains, Minor Threat, Negative Approach, Gorilla Biscuits, Youth Of Today, Shelter, Chain of Strength, Earth Crisis, Judge, Biohazard, Leeway, In My Eyes, D.R.I, SSD….i could go on!!
Still AF, Cro Mags, Discharge are all worthy choices!!
So many great punk bands that you could make a week long video if you wanted to. But I think I'd separate the hardcore punk bands from the other hardcore bands
Sick of it all is one of the most energetic and fun bands live... saw them with agnostic front Sept 2022... amazing ... and Agnostic Front always delivers live... so glad someone is finally checking out Hardcore music... check out Madball ... sheer terror ... blood for blood ... there are so many great hardcore bands ...
Mackie, the drummer for The Cro Mags, is one of the best drummers in hardcore.
Great choices altogether, but Cro-Mags! Fantastic. A friend of mine who plays bass and I (drums) used to skip class and jam "We Gotta Know" in the jazz room in high school. The Age of Quarrel is a great album. Keep 'em coming!
A good book to check out is "Our band could be your life" by Michael Azzerad. It covers various influential indie, hardcore and punk bands from the 1980's that eventually inspired a lot of grunge/ alternative rock bands. Also there's a great documentary on the singer of Bad Brains called "Finding Joseph I: The HR from Bad Brains documentary".
Luv your quirky personality. So intriguing and unique! Enjoy Punk and Metal. Keep Exploring Music!!
More Bad Brains please!🙏Banned in DC is one of the best hardcore tracks ever. The arrangement on the track is really cool.
band wrote the most perfect hardcore record in 82, its insane how the cracked the code so early on.
case in point, the breakdown in right brigade.
FYI you've heard the singer for the Circle Jerks Keith Morris before. He was the lead singer in Black Flag when they recorded the song "Nervous Breakdown".
Kieth is the punk rock Jesus. OFF! Is important in the punk genre.
All those bands are great. I was a southern California punk from the 80's. Try some really fast songs. Middle Class "Out of Vogue", Ill Repute "Oxnard", Articles Of Faith "Bad Attitude" anything from early Poison Idea. So cool you are experiencing the world of hardcore.
Check out the song “Just Can’t Hate Enough” by Sheer Terror or “Ground Zero Brooklyn” by Carnivore. NYHC at its finest.
Love your reactions as always, you need to hear Dayglo Abortions, Canada's best punk band, the entire album Feed us a fetus is a masterpiece....
I'd put NMN ever so slightly higher... sorry, Murray. The universe got it Wright putting both bands in the proximal location of Victoria, BC... such an epic era late 70s through to early 90s here. We had Neos, Dishrags (with Jade Blade), Red Tide (Ken Jensen's first), Pink Steel, Jerk Ward (Steve McBean's first, second being Mission of Christ) and more!!! How about a video dedicated to these? TH-cam has them all!!! *edit to add Infamous Scientists (duh), and mention the immensely important support from gig promoter fans, sometimes both, venues, sound recording production talent *Scott Henderson, looking at you!!!
Not the subhumans or doa?
Your 'taster' videos of hardcore, stoner, punk & metal are great ! Keep posting them. So nice to see your reactions to music I grew up listening to and revisit every day. Everyone has their own favourite band / recommendations from the 80's which they've commented so I will throw in a few others- Adrenalin O.D., Ludichrist, Crucifix, Zero Boys.
The album Hear Nothing, See Nothing, Say Nothing by Discharge is totally brilliant. 10/10
You should really check out Raw Power " Politicians " or " We're All gonna Die " off the Album Screams From the Gutter . Raw Power is an old Hardcore Band from Italy but the Album Screams From the Gutter was recorded in Indianapolis , Indiana . The Zero Boys is also a Great Band from the late 70's early 80's . Glad to see people exploring and enjoying Great Bands and Music :)
Got to see Raw Power in the 80s. Great show. They played in Michigan at a hall out in the boonies.
Another nice round up. I'm glad you like Sick of it All, as they were one of my favourites back in the day. I don't know if this is quite the right way to put it, but I always thought of them as being a great example of the "East Coast Hardcore" sound of the late 80s to early 90s. This is kind of how punk split between this East Coast sound and the West Coast punk that eventually becomes pop-punk (eew).
Supported Discharge in 1982
i supported naplam death onslaught chaos uk ,. scream , and i think concrete sox and a few more in early 80s i still have the flyer some where frrom on of the gigs , great fun and gigs were so cheap like 1.50 and we played for free beer a lot
If nobody has suggested it yet, Sick of it All’s tune “Scratch The Surface” was a really big song for them. Check that one out.
You should dive into CROSSOVER (a mix of HC and metal), some bands: D.R.I., Suicidal Tendencies, Excel, Stormtroopers of Death, Dr. Know, Lobotomia, M.O.D.
New viewer here Kira & some fresh air. You are more than a reactor for sure. And you distinguish well between Thrash, Death, Metal, Rock, Glam, Emo and the only Hardcore that exists. Punk. But, to really know & experience Punk you have to “get in the pit”. Mosh. Pogo. Circle Pit. Stage Dive. When a punk falls in the pit, pick ‘em’ up. Corrosion of Conformity with Erick Eyke & Mike Dean. Straight Edge band Minor Threat album Out of Step. Hard-core punk songs are short because punks are in the pit. They’re made for it. Good job girl keep it up. You’re awesome.
My first show was Circle Jerks in 1985, my favorite show is Cro-Mags in 1986, I loved Agnostic Front in the mid-80s, and I've been friends with Terry (Tezz) Bones of Discharge for 30 years. He moved to the US in the early '90s and lived 10 minutes from me. This video was so nostalgic.
I really just came here for Sick of it All. It is the remastered (possibly rerecorded) version, so it does sound way clearer and punchy than the original, but that's kind of how they always sounded live. My favourite band and the first band I ever saw.
Yeah they are air tight live!
Funny enough, you did say "this is like metal" and you aren't wrong at all.
Punk and heavy metal are both sub-genres of rock, but heavy metal is specifically a heavier form of hard rock. Hardcore punk is punkrock + hard rock, but punkrock + heavy metal can also fall under that category, so long as the majority of it is punk.
If there's more metal in it than punk, it's thrash metal... and if you add hardcore punk into thrash metal (making it a more balanced middle ground) you'll end up with "grindcore" or "crossover thrash", and of course their sub-genres and off-shoots.
So yeah... punk + metal can be hardcore, but it can also be a bunch of other things. And hardcore can have either metal or hard rock, in the mix with punk
Sick! Your reactions are just like mine when i first heard some of these bands when i was 12 years old in 1986. (Except for Husker Du which were already in the "college/alternative" era so i never got into them.) Hardcore gives an aggressive but positive energy that has stayed with me most of my life.
I've listened to all these bands from the start and still do. Love your excitement ha. I was 11 (1981... ) when I brought home my first Discharge 45 and it still makes me react the same way as you did here. A cool side note to me is that most punk bands were/are pretty real. Meaning, the music was made from a natural place. Not made for fame, not to get girls or boys, not for egos and surely not for money. Its was, for majority, made from heart, angst, frustration and/or pure fun. A genre of music that for many around the world, came with a movement, a lifestyle. It personally gave me friends and a place I belonged, soo much more than just the music.
You’ve got an excellent ear for music, love it 👍
Give Keith Morris’ current band “OFF!” a listen, especially the first four EPs. You won’t be disappointed!
Love the NYHC love here. True story re: Mackie (Cro-Mags). He played on my drummers kit once and afterword my drummer had to replace all the heads. Man is a beast!

Cheers Kira....so stoked to see you delve into Hardcore Punk. It's been a staple in my life for 42 years. I didn't live too far from Black Flag,Descendents and Circle Jerks. If you want to hear a faster Husker Du album, check out Land Speed Record. Big ups from California
You have to check out Dr. Know and RKL as well
Discharge is one of the most influential hardcore bands of all time. They were one of the first bands not only to play that face meltingly fast and hard but also to include more tough, hard edged metal solos in punk songs. They paved the way for crust punk, grindcore, powerviolence, any other obscure genre of extreme punk edged heavy music. Bands like Napalm death and even some early death metal bands will cite them as a key influence, not to mention the whole wave of “d-beat” bands that basically exist to copy discharge as closely as possible (disclose, disfear, disarm, etc, notice a pattern here?) super sick band I would also recommend you check out the songs Aint No Feeble Bastard, Hear Nothing See Nothing Say Nothing, Protest and Survive, Cries of Help
Next episode should be your first local hardcore show
Watching you dance like that makes me think you would probably love going to a punk show. Could totally imagine you going off in the pit.
Vocalist Harley Flanagan from Cro-Mags lived in Aarhus, Denmark in the 70's with his mother and used to go to punk concerts at the age of 11-12 years old 😂
That Cro mags intro had me geeked when I first heard it almost 40 years ago 🤯That whole album (Age of Quarrel) is one widely considered one of the best hardcore albums ever.
Fantastic list. Discharge not only influenced punk/hardcore and metal but also invented an entire sub genre of punk “D-Beat”
I really loved the way you reacted to the songs, Cro-mags and discharge are fantastic! I mean all the bands on the list are great but those two.
Im so glad i came across this. Its cool how you hear different sounds within hardcore punk. Hardcore has elevated so much as a genre. I also see you have 3 bands from NYC here. sick of it all, agnostic front, and cro-mags. Im from NYC and also part of the hardcore and punk scene here, and you'll notice that those bands sound heavier. Hardcore bands from new York City have always had a much heavier edge and sound and grittier.
Discharge Go Harder Than All Hardcore Bands, I Saw Them Play A Few Months Ago In A Tiny Pub And Like Always, The Place Erupted With Energy
You have to check out Negative Approach. That is all.
Everytime I listen to this Hüsker Dü song, I see a skater ripping a concrete pool in my mind! 😃
hell yeah!
Try out Raw Power from Italy. Screams from the gutter is my favorite. Its pretty amazing watching a young person get into stuff i was listening to 40+ years ago.
Age of Quarrel is probably in the top two hardcore albums of all time.
Street justice street justice for you and me street justice
The Age of Quarrel demo smokes the album.
Great music
Grew up in the 80s, hanging out low Manhattan. Washington Square park, just having fun.

Husker Du were amazing. The Metal Circus EP and Zen Arcade probably are two of my favorite albums ever.
*Listen to 'The Unseen', 'Strike Amywhere', 'The Exploited', and 'Calibre 12 - o Espelho', Turnstile.*
The second song is originally done by Sick of it All
She Looks and Sounds Sweet here!!
One of the ideals of punk was to rail against the 60s and 70s music industry which hosted only artists that were considered to be extremely talented and made 10 minute prog songs. This is why you don't really find guitar solos in punk.
Very nice mix of hardcore bands. You pick to listen. I recommend siege and infest for a little bit more fast, angry and short style 😎👍
The guitarist in my band (Fire is Murder) is Steve Gallo. He used to play drums for Agnostic Front. His brother Mike is still their bass player. This is awesome! I never see anyone reacting to them!
As for the Cro-Mags..., the drummer on that track is Mackie Jayson. He DEFINITELY has the "good foot". One of the best drummers in hardcore/punk. I'm loving your reviews by the way....
Bangers.... every one of these.
Hold the first,, Discharge,, Single 1981 in my Hands...was blown away.....!!!!
the second EP, Fight Back, blows their first EP away.
It, was,, fight back,,.. Thought, it was the first... Thanx for info... Then was the,, decotrol,, the first.. 🤔✌️
@@willieluncheonette5843
..and Decontrol is better than both of em...
That Discharge album is a fun listen. Also you would like Youth of Today,(Breaking Down the Walls) Gorilla Bisquits(Start Today) Drscendants(Somery) GBH,(City Baby's Revenge) ALL great Punk albums...NOFX and Bad Religion also fun fast pink! Generation X,/Generation X-great melodic punk!
Descendants
Discharges hear nothing lp is a "fun" listen...wouldn't be my take on it tbh
Ahhh Yes, the sound of bullies in the cool kids section! Except for husker du. They were a little refuge. Still love this music though even though it invokes some sketchy memories
Sioa came in the late 80s and gradually turned into the archetype hardcore sound which was created by Cromags in 86
I accidentally met the bassist of Husker Du going out one night to see a random show - turned out he was playing bass for the headlining band and barely anyone knew that! Got a picture and a signed dollar bill but I think I scared him a bit when I said that Land Speed Record (if you wanna talk early Husker Du and wild hardcore, definitely check that album out) was the kind of music that made me think of crashing my car to start off on a wild adventure lmao
Try some modern ones like Scowl, Restraining Order, Spy, Turnstile, Show me the body, Gel, etc
Hello Kira, compliments for your choices, these bands are all amazing, even if I have to say I didn't expect to find a band like Discharge among these Hardcore bands. Discharge are one of the first UK punk bands, like Subhumans, GBH, Partisans, Disorder, Chaos UK, Blitz, UK Subs, etc. But when I was young my favourite punk bands were the so-called "anarcho-bands", first of all CRASS, then Conflict, Poison girls, Chumbawamba, Dirt, Rubella Bullets, Zounds, Flux Of Pink Indians, etc. They were very creative bands, for example Karma Sutra were really an incredible band, I'd like to see the reaction of your face if you listened to the song "When the music stops".... I am so curious..... ☺
First sick of it all I heard was my life. Great song. I love you're videos and how you don't do any about g, eh, never mind. Love your stuff!
If you want even MORE hardcore, I recommend the band Armor and their song Military Discount. A final boss would be 12XU by Minor Threat. One I believe you would have the most fun is Gold Chain Punk (WhoIsGonnaBeatMyAss) by soul glo. thats even crazier, and more well done hardcore punk imo! Awesome vid like always
I got into hardcore punk when I’m in high school. My friend recommended me philippine violators. Got into deep I found dead ends, i.o.v.(intoxication of violence), betrayed, g.i and the idiots. That’s my recommendation to anyone who wants to give a try.
I used to hang with Husker Du back in the day (1984)
You should try The Exploited and G.B.H.
Just got Troops of tomorrow on vinyl few days ago. To this day, i see it as best hardcore punk album ever produced.
@@pretorius9598
The exploited were/are and always will be, a fxxkin joke...don't get me wrong they did some decent stuff years ago but there are a million better "punk" bands....
@@davedennison7386 There always has to be one guy out there like you eh?
@@pretorius9598
Did that sting?, if u think troops of tomorrow is the best hc punk lp ever produced, that is a bold statement and as u are wrong,I feel it is my duty to correct you, if yer only 12, I apologise cos I loved em when I was young...I'll never forget how exciting it was 2 see em on top of the pops, miming to "dead cities"...
@@davedennison7386 It's intentionally bold statement because in sea of bands they're still my number one to this day for multiple reasons.
Mighty DISCHARGE
Please do a full album reaction to "Group Sex" by Circle Jerks. It's only 14 Minutes and it's all killer no filler.
NYC hard core has that tough guitar tone you like! Madball, Merauder and more Cro-Mags too!!
Marauder was metalcore. Madball and Cromags crossover thrash
One of the best hard-core punk bands ever is DFL . album, proud to be
Check out Earth Crisis and Snapcase.
Also, if you want to get crazy specific to some regional music for no particular reason than curiosity, checkout the premier band from the early ‘00s in SWFL, Jiyuna “Moonrock Millionaire” (best recording available on Bandcamp.) Also, Savannah, Georgia’s Circle Takes The Square, “In The Nervous Light Of Sunday.”
☺️👍🏼
Great video definitely some good picks! to understand early hardcore i'll quote the vocalist from M.D.C. "We're not trying to be digestible or melodic, we're giving you all our angst & all our feeling as loud as we can & as hard as we can."-Dave Dictor. So thats why Hardcore songs were often short & fast. Just an explosion of angry youth expression.
That kept us ‘in the Pit’. 🍻
I got a few bands to check out. Warzone : dont forget the struggle, dont forget the streets. Adolescents self titled album. Rudimentary peni: death church.
Check out His Hero is Gone, late 90's crust punk
Highly recommend "The Exploited -13 - Punk's Not Dead (Live 1981)" from the Live album "The Exploited- On stage"
DOA Hardcore 81! Vancouver CA!
Im going to drop my punk rock card right here and say... DRI plastique. Most hardcore song of them all. 27 seconds of punk rock!
Happy Aussie Day 🇦🇨

With hindsight I think British bands like Discharge and GBH were really influenced by Motorhead's sound. I didn't see this at the time because they seemed like different genres. Motorhead played reasonably large venues at the time but Discharge etc played smaller shows were you could get quite close to the stage and speakers.
Great video - if you want to delve further into the world of hardcore I’d recommend: Earth Crisis - ‘Firestorm’ Burn - ‘…Shall Be Judged’ Integrity - ‘systems Overload’. Born Against - ‘By the Throat’.
You should check out the 3 albums by the Original Misfits. Static Age and Walk Among Us are melodic Punk Rock and Earth AD is full on Hardcore and was a big influence on alot of the Thrash bands.
As some other people mentioned, Discharge isn't really "hardcore punk" per se , they more or less created the sound of and later on genre "D-beat" (the drumming rythm in the song you listened to). Street Punk is a genre that is very related to it but may or may not contain the D-beat. The bands of these genres was a MAJOR influence to Speed Metal, Thrash Metal and Black Metal.
Think the easiest way to distinguish these bands is that the Hardcore Punk bands emerged in the 80s in USA, influenced by early UK Punk. D-beat and Street Punk emerged in the UK, without/minor influences of the bands in USA. That's why they sound quite a bit different.
GBH and the Exploited were very influential to many metal bands but I wouldn't say they were to speed metal tbh. Speed metal was created by Motorhead in 77, but there were a couple of songs before them made by budgie, Scorpions, deep purple, riot, queen, judas priest, etc that were speed metal
So speed metal influenced street punk not the other way around.
Yes you are correct! Thought about that too after writing it, makes a lot more sense :)@@RibeiroGames12
Victim In Pain is the best hardcore album ever followed closely by the original Age of Quarrel demo
Did she do Fugazi yet?
If you ever decide to give a listen to more recent hardcore... Scowl, Section H8, Turnstile, Walls of Jericho, End It... Just a few suggestions.
