Herdcore 

herd-core also herd·core (herdkôr, -kr) adj.

Herdcore is the culmination of a set of attitudes and beliefs held by the London-based Ultimate Frisbee team, the Thundering Herd. Whilst sharing similarities with the "fiercely loyal" definition of hardcore, as in "Fred was a hardcore golfer", it also requires a fun and positive outlook on Frisbee and life in general. It can equally be applied to people, actions, or even inanimate objects, as illustrated below.

The opposite of Herdcore is Herdiocre

-"Those new trainers are herdcore, mate"

-"I just necked a shot of tequila, threw up and then played a 90-min game"
-"Herdcore"

-"What are the opposition like?" - "Dunno, don't look herdcore to me though"

Partying especially hard.

If someone was to turn up to an Ultimate Frisbee game with little sleep, vomit at the side of the pitch, and then to continue and run around for an hour, A Herder may say, "that is Herdcore"

Herdcore 

Herdcore is a subcultural phenomenon that started in early 2014.
Herdcore kids are fully aware that all the choices they have are determined by mass-market based data, they embrace that their lives are enslaved by herd-mentality.
They are convinced that they are already branded before they can find their own identities.
They express themselves by wearing cowbells, nose rings (septums), brandings, cow print and burnt holes in clothes plus all sorts of cow-related accessories. Herdcore music usually includes cowbell sounds and repetitive beats.

"I'm not Normcore, I'm Herdcore because I am aware of my brands."
"I can still express myself creatively, if only cause I can't."

A common misspelling of the word "hardcore", herdcore has developed its own definition as a herd of cattle sitting on a large quantity of apple cores, or perhaps the trampled remains of a Apple G5.

Herdcore 

A state of being in which you, plucky little you; the last reveller awake, sucking the sticky sap off the inside of a bottle of Jaeger (possibly through a curly straw) have outlasted the rest of the partygoers.
They might have lasted for days, some of their exploits may have been decadent in the exceptional, however...there can be only one!!
Much like the Highlander (only less shit & much less french/belgian, whatever) as the last one standing you have absorbed their power.

Your sword is the magic marker to be wielded with impunity over the slumbering also-rans because you, my friend...are Herdcore!!

'Dave's crazy...'
'Yeah?! How so?!'
'5 day bender without the assistance of meth...poured vodka into Chris' fishtank & drank it dry as he'd 'run out of mixer'!!'
'Shit the fuck off?!'
'Yeah, apparently he was last seen in the park with a bag of hotdog rolls trying to catch squirrells?!'
'Fucking Herdcore man!!'

Hardcore Punk 

Hardcore Punk is a subgenre of Punk Rock which originated in North America in the late 70's. The sound is thicker, heavier, and faster than 1970s-style Punk Rock. It is characterized by short, loud, and passionate songs.

It was call Punk at first and not Punk Rock as classic Punk was called. In the ealy 80's it was called Hardcore Punk

Hardcore Punk started in L.A with the band Black Flag and in D.C with the band Minor Threat and Bad Brains; which are the big three bands of early Hardcore Punk.

In the 90's heavy metal bands tried to get into Hardcore with out being Punk. Which is not Hardcore at all. The Hardcore movent and sound is still Punk and always will be. Metalcore is metal music not Hardcore Punk. There is still Harcore Punk bands around today, and that are not metal bands claiming to be Hardcore with out being Punk. A few of them are,

The Casualties
Cheap Sex
Devotchka
Dropkick Murphys
Lower Class Brats
No Use For A Name
Pennywise
Rise Against
Suicide Machines
The Unseen
And more.

Hardcore is Punk music. Its not a fourm of Metal music. Its short for Hardcore Punk.
