Begründer des Hate-Images
Nachdem Sänger Brendan Rafferty den Begriff “Hate-Core” als Slogan kreiert hatte, distanzierte er sich schon wenig später von dessen Fehlinterpretation.
“Finally, for those that still don´t get it, “Hate-Core”, as I named it, is not about senseless wanton violence or discrimination as people have misinterpreted it to be. It is about expressing true rage at the moral, social and political injustices we`re forced to cope with everyday. Those who believe anger has no place in the underground, have no place being in the underground.”
