The greatest punk rock album of all time. I fucking said it.

[@glenguerin217]

I remember when this album came out. It was very, very hard to find. Everywhere it sold out really fast. Only one person in my group of maybe ten was able to buy one because she was smarter than all of us. She knew when the release date and went to the Record Peddler that day. Unfortunately, I had to go to work and by the weekend, it was sold out. Fkg GREAT ALBUM!!!

[@Brewzerr]

Fortunately, where I lived at the time there was a record store called Real Records that was co-owned by 2 of the original punks in our scene (U-Ron from Really Red and Jim Craine from Culturcide/AK-47), and U-Ron was originally from Vancouver and knew the guys from Quintessence and Friends Records, so he helped distribute their stuff locally and got a big surplus of all the early DOA and Subhumans releases, and I got my copy of HC81 right when it was hot off the presses, but I do remember how maybe a year or 2 later all those records just vanished.

[@Shikta-poobah67]

You should be proud. You guys had one hell of a scene! Not just DOA, but Subhumans, Pointed Sticks, Dishrags, K-Tels (Young Canadians), Modernettes, U-JRK5, I, Braineater… I could go on and on. I’m originally from Texas, and we used to hear stories about the Vancouver scene all the way down in Houston. It helped that the singer of one of our most beloved local bands (Really Red) grew up in Vancouver and still had some ties. Ronnie Bond (aka U-Ron) also owned a great record store called Real Records, and he’d get all the really hard to find (in the U.S.) stuff on the independent Vancouver labels like Quintessence and Friends. Really Red played with DOA on the H81 tour. It was DOA’s first gig in Houston, and my first time seeing them. It was easily one of the top 5 best shows I’ve ever seen. They just scorched. So did Really Red.

I like how this band feels way more fun than most hardcore

[@SonofSethoitae]

Hardcore used to be fun. Hell, even early Black Flag had a sense of humour. Punks tend to take themselves too seriously, especially these days.

[@Brewzerr]

Yeah because in the early 80's it was still about doing something new and not having rules or codes dictating the way things were supposed to be. After roughly '84 or so it got real stupid, real fast... with all these dumb little factions and cliques that said you had to dress a certain way or sound a certain way in order to be "real". For me that's when the spirit of the original scene truly died and the bozos and boneheads took over.

[@vinylrichie007]

West coast Hardcore bands tended to be more fun than the east coast bands. Gang Green are a big exception.

[@Brewzerr]

@@vinylrichie007 Yeah Gang Green were definitely all about partying (and skating). They were a lot of fun live. They stood out from all the other Boston HC bands, who were mostly straight-edge. Another great Boston band from the 80's who liked to get wasted was the Dogmatics. They weren't hardcore. More like garage punk, but they played in that scene back then and really stood out.

[@Brewzerr]

For me personally, I've never given a single shit one way or another whether people call this 'punk', 'hardcore', or "hardcore punk"... because it's really all of those things. I'm old enough to remember when the term 'hardcore' first originated in association with punk bands, and to my recollection it was actually a couple of years before this album even came out. I remember an article from late '79 in an old bay area punk zine called "Search & Destroy", where some journalist used the term 'hardcore' to make a distinction between the louder, faster, angrier bands in the West Coast scene from the other more arty and intellectual bands. Among the bands listed in the 'hardcore' category, I remember the Avengers, Negative Trend, Bags, Germs, and possibly Dils. I remember thinking to myself that "hardcore" was the perfect way to describe and differentiate those bands, though at the time that term was mainly only used in reference to porn movies and not music. A couple of years later, and DOA basically codified the term with this album (and tour) and it became common vernacular for a new and younger scene that was cropping up all over the world. Still, it's all punk rock to me.

[@richardst.romain6837]

I wish I could have seen what you did back then but I was born in 79. My punk years started 89-90 and saw every band I could starting in the mid 90s on, anyways glad to hear about people like you

[@johnflushing9328]

[@kengoodey]

My Dad actually paid for this for me. It was either 81 or 82 and we were visiting his mum and dad in a place called Wickford in Essex [England, east of London for those who don't know], and we went into a local record shop - Adrians [quite well-known in England]. My brother-in-law bought Skynyrd's Free Bird 12-inch pic disc and my Dad turned round and asked if I wanted a record. I'd heard of D.O.A. so I picked this one. He shelled out £6 - it was an import and most vinyl LPs were about £3 or £4. I still have it and I still love it. Thanks Dad. I even have Musical Interlude as the wake up alarm on my phone!

[@paulvine3726]

Wickford is not in East London pmsl, it's a shitty little town 50k+ outside London with a Southend postcode, and Adrians is not well known in England. You have good taste in music though so I'll let you off :-)

There are people from all over the world on KZbin who will have heard of London, but won't need or even care to know EXACTLY where Wickford is. And if you go to record fairs then you will meet collectors from all over the UK who know of Adrians.

Well, not to split hairs, but when they decided to title this album “Hardcore 81”, they meant “hardcore punk rock”, and all punk rock is, is stripped down snotty rock and roll with a little extra attitude… so yeah. The piano in the mix helps with that too.

Joey Shithead, guy was 100% for REAL! For a Canadian punk band to basically conquer the US was monumental. Every band in the early 80s never turned down a chance to play with D.O.A. If you toured Canada, especially Vancuver, you always had a place at Joey's place.

Many hardcore bands classify themselves as Punk, so it is really a matter of perspective.

[@Druffmaul]

When I was a kid it was all "punk" and it was just an obvious given that the older bands from the 70s tended to be a bit more rock & roll and the newer younger bands were faster and more angry. We used the word hardcore sometimes, but it wasn't until the mid 80s that I realized people were using it like a separate genre from punk. I also remember the first time I heard the word "mosh" and I thought it was some kind of snack.

Such a great record and band for that matter. This and 'Something Better Change' should be in everyone's music collection.

[@Brewzerr]

Yeah I'm one of those people who loves both of those albums equally. Something Better Change was my introduction to DOA, right at the time it came out in 1980. It really blew me away and it still gets my blood pumping today, 40 years later. Hardcore 81 was the perfect follow-up a year later and equally blew me away. Obviously those 2 albums differ a bit. SBC is more anthemic and fleshed-out, but H81 is faster. looser, and more raw. The two albums complement each other perfectly, and that line-up of Shithead, Rampage, Gregg, and Biscuits just couldn't be touched by other DOA line-ups, though the '82-'83 line-up with Dimwit and Wimpy came pretty close.

[@Shikta-poobah67]

Man. I was only 10 yrs. old when this album came out, although I did catch a glimpse of their band name and many other punk bands thanks to an older sister of one of my 5th-grade classmates who was a "punk rocker" at the time (I think she must've been about 15). I was intrigued by all the expressive and unusual band names I saw on the LPs strewn across her bedroom floor... Sex Pistols, The Exploited, Circle Jerks, GBH, DOA and others, yet couldn't quite understand why she had such a dark and menacing demeanor, wearing all black with raccoon eyes and studs, spikes and chains in the middle of a sun-kissed surfer neighborhood on LA's Westside. It's been only within the past few months here on KZbin that I've decided to go back and explore all those punk bands from back then whose names I'd only known by seeing them on patches or scrawled on notebooks, Pee-Chees, book covers and skate decks 40 years ago. DOA definitely doesn't disappoint!

They definitely helped codify the name, but people were already using the term 'hardcore' as early as 1979 to describe some of the louder, faster, angrier punk bands that were starting to crop up at the time. However after this album came out (and the subsequent "Hardcore 81" North American tour that followed) it became common vernacular. I'm old enough to remember an article in 'Search and Destroy" (an old bay area punk zine) from 1979 where they labeled a few West Coast punk bands like the Avengers, Bags, Germs, and Negative Trend as "hardcore punk" to differentiate them from the other more arty and intellectual bands in the scene.

Oh, so it's an album title. Someone told me this was a genre. I've been had!

[@SonofSethoitae]

The album title named the genre

[@Steve-1984]

@@SonofSethoitae I know, it's the same way death metal got its name from a song by Possessed. I'm just clowning because the whole core thing is so blown out of proportion with all the spin-off genres it's become a dead meme. We all know albacore is the only true core tho

[@Shikta-poobah67]

@@SonofSethoitaeNo. It just popularized the title and codified it. People were using the term ‘hardcore’ (in reference to music) a few years before this.

saw them on Thursday night in Berlin. amazing. but were selling and vynls for 20 euro so fuck it too much for a simple short sleeve shirt and or a vynil

[@sleeprclg62]

Pretty common for shirts to be about $40 over here in Canada. Have never purchased vinyl from a show, so I couldn't tell you what they'd go for. As far as record store purchases are concerned though, you're looking at $20-$40 for your average new press over here.

[@svobodasimon1185]

[@alistairfinlay2772]

Ljubljana live, in January 1984. Dom Svobode Sentvid totally full of all kinds of Yugoslav nutcases, sweat pouring from all the walls.
