About HardLore

Hardcore + Lore = HardLore.

Starting in April 2022, HardLore: Stories From Tour quickly became one of the top music podcasts in the USA.

Created and hosted by longtime friends Colin Young (Twitching Tongues/God's Hate) & Bo Lueders (Harms Way), HardLore’s original goal and presentation was simply sharing stories from the touring lives of musicians (and other friends) from the world of hardcore/punk/metal music.

By July of the same year, HardLore established their presence at hardcore festivals and shows around the world, documenting the growth of hardcore and finding new ways for audiences to get to know their favorite bands and showcase the genre and community they love, eventually taking the HardLore name and goal a step further by creating a record label in early 2024.

The show evolved monumentally from 2022 to 2026… The format tightened, the guests got bigger and bigger, but the core friendship between Bo & Colin remained the beating heart of the show, and ultimately why it came this far to begin with.

On April 2nd, 2026, Bo tragically passed away, and the mission changed.

Everything from here on out is for Bo, forever.
