Hardcore punk community

"It just felt that in small towns, at least in my geographical scope, every kid that didn't fit, that felt there was something wrong, and was brave or bored enough to go and see what's out there, would band together, regardless of what kind of music they were into, if they were emos, goths, punks, metalheads, rockers, rappers, bboys, skaters or just weirdos, we weren't enough to scatter, we'd always gather in the same places and chat, dance, laugh, get drunk, plan parties or go out to poster the streets or graffiti the walls... and everywhere I went in the countryside I'd find the same energy."

I’m going to see them tonight in Sydney. Really like the production on this album. Had not heard of them til recently but I’m really enjoying this track and Level Skipper (track 3)

What was everyones favorite releases of 2025?

I love internet radio!

This station focuses on punk/noise niche music. Sometimes lo-fi. No chatter, no advertising.

I picked this up when I saw Dry Socket last week. A great split EP.

Track from the new album release from NZ Hardcore Outfit Standover - When a Clenched Fist is no longer an Option.

Learning how to respect each other is a must

So why start a war of anger & danger among us

It's time to grow out of your nazi hypocrism

When you really don't want part of a fucked up system

Your fascist attitudes, we need the least

With a scene that's fighting for unity & peace

Don't need more anger, no more danger

Stop now before it's too late

Why should you go around bashing one another

If they look or think different, why let it bother

Everyones got their own style, their own thoughts

Don't let it bother you, don't let it get caught

Remember we're minorities and everyone of us counts

If we bring intimacy, then we're endowed

Rediscovering Mad Ball over here since I’ve just recently saw them again and their performance was just mindblowing. Also new in my feed is Locked Shut.
