A style of rock that originated as a variation of punk rock in the late 70s/early 80s. This variation was a harder, heavier version of punk. It is a largely underground genre of rock. Most of the greatest hardcore bands were in the mid-80s.
Rise Against is an example of modern hardcore, whereas Atreyu is mistakenly labelled hardcore.
Black Flag was one of the first hardcore bands.
