About The Hard Times
The Hard Times is a renowned punk news site that delivers authentic and unapologetic information. Founded in December 1976, this historic satire-driven platform is run by a diverse group of punk and hardcore enthusiasts from different sub-genres of the DIY hardcore scene. Although fictional characters and band names may appear, The Hard Times provides an unparalleled punk experience while maintaining a sense of truth.
Not only does The Hard Times cover music extensively, including genres like country, emo/screamo, goth, indie, metal, pop, punk/hardcore, rap, rock, and ska, but it also delves into culture topics such as activism, record collecting, straight edge/vegan lifestyle, tattoo/piercing, and weed. Moreover, the site features opinion pieces, reviews, live events, and engaging video content. In addition to their online presence, The Hard Times expanded into a gaming vertical known as Hard Drive in 2017.
Hard Drive hosts satirical content, and has even created a fictitious gamer presidential candidate named Ace Watkins. The company's first book, to be released on Oct. 29, is eagerly awaited.
