Originally a broader,more experimental offshoot of Hardcore Punk,but closer under the umbrella of 'Indie-rock',it traces its roots back to the time of the Revolution Summer (1985) when bands such as Rites of Spring and Gray Matter helped establish this genre along with the then,barely-coined ''emocore'' (which is why today,people still like to say that Post-Hardcore is 'emo',even if they don't even know these bands).
Soon enough,more Post-Hardcore bands were formed,such as the highly influencal Fugazi,Nation of Ulysses,Jawbox and Shudder to Think.
Many bands took influence from the 'noise rock' sound from Sonic Youth and Big Black.
As the 90's approached,post-hardcore found its way to a wider audience,with Quicksand and Drive Like Jehu signing to major labels and Fugazi still influencing bands by the masses.
Then came Hot Water Music,Cursive,and Small Brown Bike.
More bands formed towards the end of the nineties including the highly energetic At The Drive-in,Thursday and the Blood Brothers.
It then became bad.Horrible bands with horrible pig snorted screaming were crawling their way onto the cover of Kerrang! Magazine.
Enter Shikari,Alesana,Silverstein,The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus,Hawthorne Heights and From First To Last were obsessed over by 13 year olds and marketed as 'emo'.
The only good thing left was Thursday.
Its sad really.What mainstream did to destroy Emo,Indie Rock,Post Hardcore,Screamo,and Pop punk...

Guy 2: Yeah, you looked like such a whimp. Hardcore dancing is fuckin' lame.
Guy 3: Mhm, you should grow some balls and maybe you can learn to mosh.

An ancient looking male porn star who has a small penis, no upper lip/weak mouth, a dirty mouth(verbally) and a penis that looks as if it were grafted from a pre-teen. His success shows that anyone can make it and endure in pornography.
"Max Hardcore" is symbolic of all that is wrong in modern porn."

Possible sub-genre of Hardcore Techno/Gabber. Mostly created by one man: Alec Empire. Punk-Infused vocals on harsh Gabber noise. Claims to of orignated out of the late 80's Rave Scene.
Atari Teenage Riot is great to listen to while beating down whining pussy whipped Emo boys!

V: to go into a circle of kids wearing tight black hoodies and fight invisable ninjas. This may look dangerous, however the ninjas are invasable and also non-realistic, therefor you rarely get hit and if you do it's takin' one for the team, so get up and do some kartwheels and a spin kick. All the hardasses on the outside of the pit who claim you're a fag for being in, are fags for being out.
