Punk rock

Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill was a regional center for punk rock, due to its large number of college students. The most famous was Corrosion of Conformity, who followed in the footsteps of area pioneers Th' Cigaretz. Later hardcore punk bands included No Labels, Colcor, Stillborn Christians and Oral Fixation.
