Hardcore punk |
 | | It's worth noting that hardcore aficionados, male and female, circa 1980-84, were subject to violence not only by police, but by classic-rock and heavy-metal fans, rednecks, jocks, 'cowboys,' 'guidos,' and expressive citizens in general, outside of certain urban areas (most hardcore punks were suburban, and many in the US were rural, and/or Southern). |
 | | In this case, the sense of liberation that many of the grunge bands felt, that you didn't have to be the world's greatest musician to form a band, was at least as important as the music. |
 | | These bands are often true to the specific flavor of hardcore local to their city or region, or the sound of another cites sound. |
