Hardcore punk

The hardcore punk is a subgenre of music derived from punk rock, which originated in the United States and later in the United Kingdom in the late 1970s.

It is characterized for being the evolution of the most energetic aspects of punk: the tempos and bars are very fast, the drum rhythms are very fast and aggressive (usually 180 to 200 beats per minute), the lines of guitars executed quickly and with few arrangements, amplified and distorted, the electric bass usually doubles the chords of the guitar (without scales, occasionally with octaves), the voice is almost shouted, fast and the songs are usually short.

From hardcore have emerged several genres, sometimes merging with electronic music, rap, metal, deriving subgenres such as melodic hardcore, post-hardcore, metalcore, deathcore, grindcore, grunge and many others.
