Does any one know any good hardcore venues in nyc? I went to the kitting factory last week but it was more of emo bands playing there and uptown is few and far apart with clubs that play any type of rock music if any one knows a spot id really be thankfull

the best "hardcore venues" in NYC are going to be DIY/activist spaces and apartments. Check out the Stolen Sleeves Collective in Brooklyn (http://www.myspace.com/thestolensleevescollective), the Cake Shop (http://cake-shop.com), and ABC No Rio (www.abcnorio.org). Those three have pretty consistently solid shows. Other than that bigger hardcore bands and punk bands (like Tragedy, Verse, Bane etc.) will play at venues like the Knitting Factory, The Bowery Ballroom, and Webster Hall on occasion.
