Chicago Hardcore

Chicago Hardcore is a website that focuses on the current punk and hardcore scene in Chicago. It keeps a calendar of local shows on their front page and has an active messageboard.

Chicago Hardcore focuses on the local, all-ages DIY scene as opposed to the bar and club scene. Many of the forum members are much younger (though very knowledgeable of Chicago Punk history) than posters on the other Chicago punk sites. There is a high level of participation from straight edgers and folks from Northwest Indiana.
