Summary
What happens when a city is burning and nobody's coming to save you? You build something from the wreckage. In this episode, Olivia and Matt dig into the New York hardcore scene - its raw origins in the economic decay of late 70s/early 80s NYC - and what it has to teach us about growth, grit, and becoming. They explore how bands like Agnostic Front, the Cro-Mags, and Bad Brains didn't just make noise - they made meaning. From the ethos of PMA (positive mental attitude) to the DIY spirit that built a scene out of nothing, this episode unpacks what it looks like to move with your story instead of running from it. Because growth doesn't happen in comfort. It happens in the squat, the pit, the rebuild. 🎵 Check out the companion Spotify playlist featuring some of our favorite NY hardcore artists and songs: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1aCujiFkswt0REjLixxJUB?si=7w3M4vIZTn67JbAo6GTw1g Want to keep the conversation going beyond the podcast?
