H-Bomb is a photographic documentary project about the hardcore punk scene in Houston, Texas. This project originated from my desire to capture what I feel is a misunderstood and fleeting subculture. Hardcore is a subgenre of punk that is distinguished by its extreme violence, influence from hip-hop and skate culture, and tribalism. Alongside the extreme physicality and self-endangerment seen at shows are identities of self-discipline and preservation like the straight edge movement, veganism, and Christianity which a large portion of the community identify as. Many outside portrayals of the hardcore scene have focused on violence and spectacle which I wanted to counter by focusing on quieter moments of community captured from my subjective experience within the scene.
