Member Rating:  
For anyone who ever listened to the radio and pondered just how mainstream so-called "alternative" music has become in recent years, filmmakers Frank Pavich and Steven Scarlata offer an illuminating look at the New York City hardcore scene. Created by music fans for music fans, this documentary focuses on a style of music that you can't hear on MTV or any popular radio stations. This isn't your typical, cursory look at slam-dancing and stage-diving, but an opportunity to hear from the folks who have dedicated their entire existence to making the most confrontational music ever recorded. Come as you are, but leave your expectations behind because N.Y.H.C. is everything you'd never expect it to be. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

It is pretty informative if u have no clue of what hard core is or what it's all about. It also showcases some pretty good songs and bands. I thought it was pretty cool, and I liked several of the songs and bands that were showcased; however, I am a "to the bone" music lover! AIso, I listen prodominately to hip hop/r&b and international music! The behind the scenes footage was very good and enlightning, as well. An over all good production!

Documenting the punk scene of New York in 1995. Pretty good production values compared to some of the others. It is kind of funny, stage shouting, and diving, the dress, tattoos, and piercings. Oh, the accents. Some of these guys make Stallone sound like James Earl Jones. If you know these bands you'll really enjoy it. I didn't care much for the music but, it was interesting from the anthropological point of view.
