There was a fucking shit-ton of LA hardcore in the early 80s.
Not to mention the UK!
If you "know your history" so well, you'd think you would know that much.
Yeesh!
I wouldn't call the Dead Kennedys hardcore, but In God We Trust IS a hardcore album to my ears. Just like DOA had Bloodied But Unbowed, which was definitely hardcore though the rest of their stuff isn't. And yes, they are good musicians, which doesn't exclude them from making hardcore. It just makes it easier for them.
And I like Earth AD (hardcore), but not as much as the rest of their albums (not hardcore).
