Japanese hardcore punk refers to the fast-paced Japanese punk/hardcore genre. The original intent of Japanese hardcore was to protest the social and economic changes sweeping Japan in the 1980s. The band SS is regarded as the first, forming in 1977.[1] Bands, such as The Stalin and GISM, soon followed. Occasionally, Japanese hardcore musicians include elements of heavy metal music, thrash metal, anarcho-punk, grindcore, horrorpunk, and d-beat in their songs.
