Offenders
Austin, TX
The Offenders were formed in 1978 in Killeen, and after relocating to Austin in 1980, became known worldwide as one of the premiere hardcore bands out of the Lone Star state. Raw and rabid but more than proficient in the delivery of their musical rebellion – alongside friends and scenemates D.R.I. and M.D.C. – Offenders completely ruled the hardcore scene throughout the infamous Reagan-era.
