Hardcore punk - Overview
Hardcore originated in the late 1970s and early '80s in North America, primarily in and around Los Angeles and Washington, DC, but also in around New York City, Vancouver, Boston, and other cities. Former DC club promoter Steven Blush claimed, in his book, American Hardcore: A Tribal History, that hardcore was punk rock adapted for suburban teens. Hardcore lyrics often express righteous indignation at society, usually from a politically left perspective.
The origin of the term "hardcore punk" is uncertain. One story is that the term was coined by New York City producer and manager Bob Sallese while promoting a show by the band The Mob, circa 1981, at a Bayside, Queens club. (The common New York term for fast punk, at the time, was "thrash.") A more widely credited possibility is that it comes from the Hardcore '81 album by Vancouver's D.O.A.
Nevertheless, the term was used in the California fanzine Flipside in the early 1980s, although not in the sense of a particular musical style, but in a sociological sense, to positively describe acts which were in the "in crowd" of the Los Angeles punk scene.
Until roughly 1983, the term "hardcore" was used fairly sparingly, mainly as an adjective, not as the name of a defined musical genre: American teenagers who were into hardcore considered themselves into "punk" -- as opposed to "punk rock" or "77 punk," the earlier, slower style of the Sex Pistols et al., which they generally considered hopelessly dated and passé.
"Hardcore"' was initially an in-group term, meaning "music by people like us," and included a surprisingly wide range of sounds, from hyper-speed punk to sludgy dirge-rock, and often including art/experimental bands such as Mission of Burma, The Stickmen, and Flipper. Today (and for the purpose of this article), it refers more or less exclusively to what used to be known as 'thrash.'
