There would be no Nirvana, Beastie Boys, or Red Hot Chili Peppers were it not for Hardcore pioneers such as Black Flag, Bad Brains, and Minor Threat. Hardcore was more than music; it was a social movement created by Reagan-era misfit kids. The participants constituted a tribe unto themselves—some finding a voice, others an escape in the hard-edged music. Some sought a better world, others were just angry and wanted to raise hell.

Featuring 26 definitive tracks, American Hardcore: The History Of American Punk Rock 1980-1986 is the audio companion to the feature-length documentary film of the same name, to be released by Sony Pictures Classics in September 2006.
