The Vancouver-based band D.O.A. may have helped to popularize the term with the title of their 1981 album, Hardcore '81. Hardcore is considered by many of its fans as an ideology and lifestyle. Hardcore has spawned the straight edge movement and its associated submovements, hardline and youth crew.
