I haven’t read it yet, but I wasn’t aware hardcore punk had gone away. What the flip have I been doing for the last 40 years?
I’ll give it a read now.
EDIT: Read it now, not really the "hardcore scene" I've been involved in, although I do like Soul Glo and Taquir, but this stuff attracts a different crowd, not really one who care too much about DIY ethics, and often involves some "dancing" that incorporates Mike Channon style windmilling arms, plus karate kicks, and results in broken noses, lost teeth and concussions. If you have to wear a gumshield to see a band then I'm not interested.

Getting an elbow in the face isn’t my idea of fun either!

Getting an elbow in the face isn’t my idea of fun either! I do like some of the bands mentioned, I saw Soul Glo at The Joiners last year, they were great. There was one guy there trying to do the arm swinging thing, but he was hemmed in by people from the more DIY scene so wasn't able to cause any damage and stopped. The (hardcore) punk scene I've been part of is all about community and co-operation rather than showing how hard you are. Gigs were always fun. I was at a gig in Bournemouth last night, it was boisterous but not violent, a good mix of genders and ages so even the old fellows were safe.
