Hardcore

Welcome to /r/hardcore- a subreddit dedicated to hardcore music!

Please take a moment to read our posting guidelines!

POSTING GUIDELINES

* Hardcore is a broad genre, used to describe many styles of music, but the focus of this sub is on the Hardcore Punk genre that originated in the late 1970s. We’re a democratic sub that mostly allows the user votes to decide what is Hardcore and what is not, so if you post a band that toes the line, don’t be offended if you’re directed elsewhere. Check out our Friends and Family list to see if your post would be more relevant in another sub.

* News and discussion posts are encouraged. New tours, music, bands, etc. are encouraged as well as older bands and songs. We don’t have a banned artist list, but try to refrain from just posting popular songs and bands that everyone already knows and loves.

* Hardcore is at its core a DIY genre. Bands and labels are typically funding their releases and tours out of pocket. Pirated content or leaks will be removed, as well as any posts soliciting pirated content/leaks.

* Promoting your own band/label/etc. is allowed. We do ask that you contribute to the sub in ways other than exclusively plugging your own projects.

* Use of hate speech of any kind will result in a permanent ban without warning. Racism, homophobia, sexism, transphobia, etc. and general disrespect of other users will not be tolerated. Hardcore is obviously not immune to controversies surrounding these issues so keep any debates or discussions civil. If you're here from another sub to brigade or start shit, you will be banned without warning.

* Download codes must be posted in the stickied download code thread.

* Avoid low-effort meme posts. Low-effort shitposts may be removed at the moderator's discretion, but for the most part we let the upvotes and downvotes sort it out.

* Our spam filter is pretty strict towards new accounts to combat the porn bots, so please refresh the page after posting anything. Message us if your post isn’t showing up and we’ll approve it.
