What is hardcore? It means many things to many people, and theyre all correct. Its best described as a feeling, an attitude, and a way of life. Hardcore is niche, schismatic, and a global phenomenon that refuses to die. Because hardcore will never die. Its symbols have been tattooed onto millions of bodies and its relics passed down through the generations, as its sounds resound worldwide.Dance or Die is the first critical and expansive study of hardcore as a music, a subculture and an enduring phuture rave movement, full of colourful anecdotes and first person accounts from artists, fans and the core of hardcore.This diehard anthology tracks the outsiders and outcasts who banded together to party, in protest, over more than 30 years of obnoxious rebellion, in ecstasy and escape, as a nighttime community more family than family, who need this hard, loud, fast/slow, aggressive, noisy, occasionally silly, kick drum or breakbeatdriven dance music, to connect with people, to survive the world, and to get through the week.Hardcore: Either youre in, or youre out. And if youre in, youre in all the way, diehard and dancing to the death. Dance or Die!

This book covers a lot of ground in hardcore music history which I appreciate. The only downside was the font size—it was a bit small for my liking. Still, it's a solid addition to my collection!

Disappointing production quality
While the content is fascinating, the print quality of the book itself was not great. Some pages were wrinkled, and that detracted from the experience. Not what I expected for something on hardcore music.

A must-read for hardcore fans!
If you love hardcore music, this book is a treasure! It dives deep into the history and culture, packed with interviews and amazing stories. I couldn't put it down and learned so much about bands I thought I knew everything about.

Perfect gift for music lovers!
I bought this as a gift for my boyfriend who's a huge fan of hardcore. He loved it! The way it covers the evolution of the genre is super interesting, and he was thrilled to discover some new bands.
