With a stacked lineup of 90’s hardcore/metal mainstays, a few token reunions, and a heaping of the best current heavy bands, 2014’s This Is Hardcore is quite the beast.
Set to take place July 24-27 at Philadelphia’s Electric Factory, the lineup includes Converge, Killswitch Engage, Title Fight, a special Set It Off-era set by Madball, as well as reunions by The Explosion, CIV, and the infamous Bad Luck 13 Riot Extravaganza, a well-deserved moniker if there ever was one. You’ll want to grab a helmet for their set kids.
Tickets go on-sale April 12 via http://www.thisishardcorefest.com/
Check out the full lineup below, as well as an announcement video, and a playlist for each of the daily lineups.
