You left Discharge out of this discussion.

"I'm more of a metal guy because punk slowly became mainstream" metal is 10x more mainstream

This is so fascinating as a guy who is 29 and grew up on post hardcore and neon pop punk era bands Slowly learning about proto punk and punk and hardcore Theres so much music to get into this is why I dont bother reading I got plenty to get into

I was getting into real punk at about your age, (39 now) the next step is thrash.

Isn't this the guy that started VICE?

There is a great documentary you should checkout about that whole scene. It's about Roland S Howard. I'll try and find a link or something in the comment under. Roland was the king.

Interesting! Gavin is such a dinosaur, I have no idea what bands he's referencing. I listen to new melodic hardcore/ hardcore (Counterparts, Knocked Loose, The Ghost Inside, etc.) and realize it doesn't sound anything like the Black Flag era of the genre.

Alot of the newer "metallic hardcore" got their start from taking riffs from Metallica songs and then pulled more influences from heavier metal genres. I'm also a fan of Knocked Loose and alot of Bay area bands like Sunami.

I always used the term “hardcore” just to describe something that was intense and heavy, like Daughters or The Blood Brothers or something. Not as a genre that’s just fast punk. Anyone else do that?

Those bands are the farthest from “hardcore” you could get

What about the band broken bones ? Most of the early line up became discharge .

I never understood the link from "punk" (greenday ect) to Hardcore. They are almost two completely different sounds (and looks) apart from aspects of the vocals.

The link is actually from "punk" to "hardcore punk"... "Hardcore" became its own thing, which is a bunch of bands ripping off Pantera, Slayer, and Obituary. And by the way, Green Day is pop punk borderline alternative rock.

As a lifelong punk fan, I find it very pretentious when people shit on commercial punk. Musically, they are often just as good or even better than indie punk bands. Often it seem like people just need something to direct their hate towards, and be better than. It is possible to enjoy both your local underground punk band AND the successful mainstream punk bands at the same time. Just saying.

Agreed. It's elitist.

My fave punk band is The F4ggy Dingleberries Who Pretend To Be Edgy but Still Live With Mom.

Worst 22 second intro ever..cut the theatrics and just play the content from beginning..way too long.
