No worries, wolves, I wasn't meaning to accuse you of anything. It's a valid question asking what exactly we're going to call "hardcore," I just don't want this to turn into...well, a thread bitching about proper terminology like the ones about emo always seem to.
Tommy, I am not at all surprised that you liked Ten Grand. They seem like the sort of thing you would enjoy (granted, I haven't been here for two years, so your tastes may have very well changed). There's some tragedy involved there too, with their singer dying shortly after they recorded their second album.

I think every single one of their song titles were brilliant, and they were doing it LONG before that turned into the trend in hardcore. Next time I upload to mediafire, I'll put up their first record "The Comprehensive List Of Everyone Who Has Ever Done Anything Bad To Us."
a pack of wolves:
I'd never heard Ten Grand before now. They really are very good, it reminds me a bit of a less frantic Wolves! (of Greece) with more of those '90s-style slow parts. Thanks for that.
His Hero Is Gone - Monuments To Thieves (Prank, 1997)
--- Code: ---http://www.mediaf!re.com/?sharekey=5822ced43b584892d956df2962098fcbe9a5bcf30af66611b8eada0a1ae8665a

Crushing, heavy hardcore with lots of crust and metal in the mix. Several of the members went on to form the more melodic Tragedy. It basically sounds like the downfall of civilisation, which is exactly what I want from this kind of band.
Idol Punch - Nude Scrap (Thrash On Life, 2004)
--- Code: ---http://www.mediaf!re.com/?sharekey=5822ced43b584892d956df2962098fcbe9a5bcf30af66611b8eada0a1ae8665a

This collects the Idol Music, Violence Pop and Sick Paradise releases. Gleefully demented pop and punk rammed together with bursts of hardcore and the whole things makes absolutely no sense. Naturally, they're from Japan.
Children of Fall - Ignition For Poor Hearts (Scene Police, early '00s/late '90s)
--- Code: ---http://www.mediaf!re.com/?sharekey=5822ced43b584892d956df2962098fcbe9a5bcf30af66611b8eada0a1ae8665a

Swedish metallic hardcore that's on more than a nodding acquaintance with emo. Fierce, solid stuff.
Thrillho:
Are we including post-hardcore in this? I'd love to flog some of the Britain's 21st-Century post-hardcore bands like Reuben.
Also, United Nations are a kind of post-hardcore supergroup that made one hell of an album.

Yeah, I wasn't meaning to raise discussions. Without researching the bands you had posted, I just wanted to verify this wasn't the electronic variety of hardcore. I'm not very much into hardcore, so I used american hardcore as a reference. I loved the music from that movie, but I haven't really gotten that much into it. I'll definitely be checking some of these bands out.
