Negative Approach Biography
Negative Approach (sometimes called “NA”) were one of the first hardcore punk bands. They are considered one of the pioneers of this genre, along with bands like Minor Threat, Bad Brains and Black Flag. Formed in Detroit, Michigan, USA, NA existed from 1981-1984, and now again from 2006-present. Like most hardcore bands, they were little known in their day outside of their hometown. They are now idolized in the hardcore subculture, considered to be one of the elite bands of the “old school” era, and continue to be influential.
