Welcome to the Louisville Hardcore/Punk/Indie Rock History.

The purpose of this History is to catalog the underground music scenes of Louisville, KY. Regional, smaller areas (insofar as the size of their punk/hc circles) such as Lexington, Evansville are more than welcome to add their information as well. We currently have 3,478 articles for you to expand on and contribute to as is.

Thanks to vandals, spammers, and shady characters, the History is unfortunately not available for public editing at this time.

October 2022 Update:

For the first time in nearly a decade, the Louisville Hardcore History has been updated and is nearly ready for public editing. New anti-spam tools have been added and the software updated so hopefully this will be a long term open platform again. Some newer bands, releases, and events have already been added - make sure to check out the Recent Changes link to the left in the main nav.

-<p>For the first time in nearly a decade, hoping to actually be able to open this back up to public editing by the end of the year. There's a lot missing and hopefully you can help fill it out. The software is out of date and spammers are still targeting the site hard based on recent tests so there's some work to do. However, some new bands, releases, and events have been added - make sure to check out the Recent Changes link to the left in the main nav.</p>
