below 160 bpm isn't even hardcore really bud, well not Gabber anyways. Damn that's so slow.
Well from my experiance there are many differant types of hardcore. Have you heard any of the new industrial styled hardcore out there?? It's around 155 BPM's but hard as ****. Dirty, gltichy, and with more edits than most tracks. That is what I'm into.

Hardcore does not have to be 200+ bpm to be considered hardcore.
