Hardcore Punk

Hardcore punk or just Hardcore is a subgenre of punk rock that originated in North America around 1980. The new sound was generally thicker, heavier and faster than earlier punk rock. The songs are usually short, fast, and loud, covering topics such as politics, personal freedom, violence, social alienation, Straight edge, war, and the hardcore subculture itself.

The masculine "tough guy"-attitude represented by NYHC ain't that malplaced really. Bad Brains, being deeply religious, black and homophobic makes them far more odd than any other. Still, maybe that's why they are the best in the entire genre?

Or in other words: I dislike metalcore and punk/metalcore bands more than pop punk bands.

To me, bands like Agnostic Front or Sick Of It All never had been hardcore punk somehow. They seem to me as if they were just trying to be masculine and tough. Of course aggression is an essential part of punk, especially hardcore punk. But the spirit of this whole protest and punk thing rather gets me with bands like Minor Threat, or the Bad Brains.
