The term 'Hatecore' was first used around 1989 by the New York group SFA to differentiate itself from the 'positive hardcore' of the 'Youth Crew' straight edge movement, which the band perceived as stereotypical and 'hippie-like'. [3] The band symbol from SFA showed the band name in large letters and the words "New York City Hate-Core", framed in a white rectangle on a black background, spread over two lines.
“For some idiotic reason, in the mid-'80s the New York scene split in two, and you were either a hardcore kid in jock clothes or a punk with a million band names written on your studded jacket; however, we always thought of it as being one type of music: hardcore/punk.”

Biography of the band SFA
[3]
After the group had used the term "Hatecore" on their flyers, it spread and was also picked up by labels and fanzines and also applied to other bands, initially to groups like Sheer Terror , who played a similar rough and hateful style as SFA and had a similar background, but later the term was mainly associated with groups whose style corresponded to the 'metallic hardcore' that had emerged in New York and the surrounding area and mainly for Victory Records releases, but also for militant straight-edge formations, even hardlineBands, used. Over time, however, the term hatecore became increasingly arbitrary due to the diversity of groups categorized as hatecore, and fanzines began to complain about the style's increasing stereotypical and unoriginality. [4] [5] More and more, Hatecore became a synonym for so-called "tough guy" bands. [3] Towards the end of a relatively short boom in the early 1990s, Hatecore, as an independent genre name, initially sank into insignificance again and gradually fell largely out of use. Nevertheless, the term Hatecore was and is still used sporadically to describe bands with a decidedly non-radical right-wing background. So he appears in reviews in connection withHateclub, D-fens, Inflexible, Next Step Up, Wolfbrigade oder Blood for Blood auf.
Controversy on the term
The SFA singer Brendan Rafferty wrote in 1991 about the misunderstandings and controversies of the “ hate ” term in Hatecore: “ For those who still don't get it, the 'Hate-Core', as I have called it, works not senseless, wanton violence or discrimination as some people have misinterpreted. It is about expressing true anger at the moral, social and political injustices that we encounter every day. Those who think that anger has no place in the underground have no place in the underground themselves. "

Hatecore as right-wing extremist music
After there was controversy over Hatecore, be it because of White Pride statements by individual band members, [22] religious fanaticism or militant straight-edge ideologies, the term became part of the American white power music scene from the mid-1990s picked up and gained further dissemination in connection with right-wing extremist and openly neo-Nazi bands outside the actual hardcore scene. The first bands here include Angry Aryans, Blue Eyed Devils , H8Machine and Intimidation Onewhich imitated the New York 'metallic hardcore' style and thus musically emulated the earlier Hatecore bands. The term 'hatecore' was placed in the interpretation of right-wing listeners in relation to the term hate crime .
Since the turn of the millennium , the modern hardcore and metalcore scene has been oriented towards musical as well as visual characteristics, i.e. the lifestyle and dress code , across all scenes . Outwardly, scene-goers as well as scene publications are often impossible or difficult to distinguish from non-right-wing extremists or recordings. The band No Reue, which emerged from the RAC, is the first German right-wing extremist Hatecore band, [23] as well-known bands are Moshpit , Path of Resistance , Brainwash , Race War , Burning Hate [24] or Race RiotIt is not uncommon for musicians to play or play in classic right-wing rock or NSBM bands before or in parallel . The term “NSHC” (National Socialist Hardcore) has established itself as a synonym for the “new” Hatecore, primarily in Germany. [25] [26] Ingo Taler, however, describes the NSHC term as unusable, as these bands rarely take a clear position, and instead uses the term "White Power Hardcore" (WP-HC). [25] As a reaction of the hardcore scene, the Good Night White Pride campaign was formed in Germany , to which the neo-Nazi-minded supporters reacted with "Good Night Left Side".
In recent years, parts of the scene have also adopted the ideology of the straight edge movement, for example in the United States through the “Terror Edge” network. The concept of a drug-free and body-conscious lifestyle is interpreted as a basic element for creating or maintaining a “healthy national body ”.
Over the last few years there has also been overlap with the Autonomous Nationalists .

Deafheaven Lyrics

Submitting to the amber crutch
The theme in my aching prose
The theme in my aching prose
Fantasizing the sight of Manhattan
Fantasizing the sight of Manhattan, Manhattan
That pour of a bitter red being
That escapes a thin frame
A bitter red being
The rebirth of mutual love
The rebirth of mutual love
The slipping on gloves to lay
The slipping on gloves to lay tenderly
The slipping on gloves to lay
The slipping on gloves to lay tenderly
The slipping on gloves to lay
Slipping on gloves
Slipping on gloves
Gloves, gloves
Slipping on gloves
I'm dying
Is it blissful?
It's like a dream
I want to dream
I'm dying
Is it blissful?
It's like a dream
I want to dream
I want to dream
I want to dream
I want to dream with you
Deafheaven's song Dream House is a highly emotional song that delves into themes of submission to addiction, fantasizing about a life in a grand city, and the yearning for eternal rest. The opening lines "Hindered by sober restlessness, Submitting to the amber crutch" reveal the singer's struggle with sleeplessness and how they are seeking comfort in their addiction. The use of the word "amber" here also hints at the singer's poetic nature and how they are using the language to describe their experience.
The lines "The theme in my aching prose, Fantasizing the sight of Manhattan" reveals the singer's desire to escape their current reality through creative writing. They are imagining a world where they are in Manhattan, which for them represents a place of hope and escape from their present struggles. The imagery of the "bitter red being" escaping a "thin frame" speaks to the possibility of a rebirth through mutual love. The following lines which mention "slipping on gloves to lay tenderly" suggest a romantic interaction or the beginning of a close, intimate relationship.
The repetition of the line "I'm dying" echoes throughout the song and could be interpreted two ways. On one hand, it could be the singer expressing their desire for eternal rest or the ultimate escape from pain. On the other hand, it could be seen as a metaphor for the death of their addiction as they gradually come to terms with their struggles. The final lines "Is it blissful? It's like a dream, I want to dream" leaves the listener with ambiguity as to whether the singer has found relief or is still seeking it.

Album is nothing but honest, open, poetry. That's why I often compare it to Converge's Jane Doe. Similar but Deafheaven took a lighter approach. Sunbather is horribly underrated by fans but in years to come everyone will be loving it. We're just lucky to know about it first. AMAZING album. It's framed in my room next to TDAGARIM by Brand New and Jane Doe by Converge.

Album is art and not only is it art, but it's truly an experience. The lows with the heavies along with the lyrics. Album is orgasmic to say the least. Why no one else sees it absolutely blows my mind. This album is truly something else. Its special to me. It can't be compared to anything else. WITTR is a common comparison but I've given them a chance with all their albums and it didn't fit my taste. Deafheaven just trumped my expectations. Album is a pure classic. Classics are often polarized to begin with. Album is a classic waiting to come.
Even in the same field as WITTR, Deafheaven change it up. Not only are they better they open up the doors to closed-minded folks who don't like metal. Album is golden. I can't even explain it enough. It's basically been on repeat since it came out. I knew on first listen that this album was going to fly and be something special to us all.
This album deserves all the praise and more. Can't believe that Rolling Stone gave this a 60/100 and then later called it best metal album. I love what they called it, but the 60 brought it from a 95 on metacritic to a 92. If it's number 1, give it a 100 and bring it up. Could've easily been a 95-100 for that reason. But thankfully no one under 50 reads rolling stone.
