Portraits of…American 80’s Hardcore Punk Culture

Would CVLT Nation be what it is without MRR? The answer is hell no! That zine changed changed my life and gave me information that I still use until this very day. Check out this portrait essay of 80’s American Hardcore. Looking at these pictures brings back many memories of friends that I have lost, but also of fun days that bled into nights! So journey with me down memory lane – I know it sounds corny, but this is just how I’m feeling today! R.I.P. DREW BERNSTEIN.
