Hardcore has survived three decades. Will it never die? Mutate to survive, as the saying goes. There were outliers back then who remain misfits now, and it's hard to tell whether what they're making now is so different to what they were making then. Maybe the machines are slightly smarter, but they just find ways to rough the sound up elsewhere in the signal chain. What rings true is the sound hasn't aged - in the right hands it still jabs at the frontal lobe and tickles the pleasure receptors with ferocious precision.
