American Hardcore starts at Neon
The early 1980’s hardcore scene is one of the most underrated yet influential era’s of modern rock music. Bands like Bad Brains, The Circle Jerks, Minor Threat, and Black Flag began the hardcore movement and are responsible for pioneering the sounds of many of the greatest bands from the 90’s and today.
A brand new documentary tracing the roots of hardcore from 1980-1986 is coming to the Neon Movie theater (130 E. Fifth St.) beginning Friday, December 29th. This Sundance award winning film, entitled American Hardcore, will only be showing for one week at the Neon so time to see it is limited.
It is about time the Reagan-era misfits got recognized for something.
