HERESY

About Me


Detroit Suburbs was location of one of the first important hardcore punk scenes that swept underground America in the early 1980s. By the end of 1981 the new style sometimes known as "Midwest Hardcore" had exploded across North America and Detroit was one of several important regional centers fostering its spread.
Hardcore punk was a perfect fit in Detroit. Rock music there had always been louder, harder and more aggressive than in the rest of the country.
One of Detroit’s most influential hardcore punk rock bands — it’s time to pause and give respect.......
Heresy — which formed in 1981 and expired 10 years later — is the kind of band that survived with zero media support. They didn’t need it; they had truck loads of rep.
The band’s lead singer, Tim King, has been a kind of deity in the hardcore scene since its earliest days. He wore liberty spikes before they had been called such, hung out in some of Cass Corridor’s seediest shit holes, and befriended some who would later go on to become godheads in the punk world.
