I want to be clear, when I said hardcore, I'm referring pretty exclusively to approximately 80-84 (the first wave of hardcore.) I agree with you this changed dramatically by the late eighties, with crossover thrash bands, post-hardcore bands, et cetera. I was responding to Forward to Death's question about how it was founded as a sound though, which was simplistic rock and not the genre-bending stuff we see today. Hardcore now is all over the place now (obviously - you can take almost any word and add "core" to it and probably find a band it applies to.)
