In the [[United Kingdom]], a fertile hardcore scene took root early on. Referred to under a number of names including "U.K. Hardcore", "[[UK 82]]", "second wave punk",<ref>Glasper 2004, p. 8-9</ref> "real punk",<ref>Liner notes, [[Discharge (band)|Discharge]], ''[[Hear Nothing See Nothing Say Nothing]]'', Castle, 2003</ref> and "No Future punk",<ref>Glasper 2004, p. 384.</ref> it took the previous punk sound and added the incessant, heavy drumbeats and heavily distorted guitar sound of [[new wave of British heavy metal]] bands, especially [[Motörhead]].<ref name="Glasper 2004, p. 47">Glasper 2004, p. 47</ref> Formed in 1977 in [[Stoke-on-Trent]], [[Discharge (band)|Discharge]] played a large role in influencing other European hardcore bands. AllMusic calls the band's sound a "high-speed noise overload" characterized by "ferocious noise blasts."<ref>{{cite web |author=Dean McFarlane |url=https://www.allmusic.com/album/discharge-mw0000221091 |title=Discharge – Discharge  |website=AllMusic |date=July 9, 2002 |access-date=August 20, 2014 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150726035856/http://www.allmusic.com/album/discharge-mw0000221091 |archive-date=July 26, 2015 }}</ref> Their style of hardcore punk was coined as [[D-beat]], a term referring to a distinctive drum beat that a number of 1980s imitators of Discharge are associated with.<ref name=tez>"I just wanna be remembered for coming up with that f-ckin' D-beat in the first place! And inspiring all those f-ckin' great Discore bands around the world!" – Terry "Tez" Roberts, Glasper 2004, p. 175.</ref>

Another UK band, [[the Varukers]], were one of the original D-beat bands,<ref>Glasper 2004, p. 65.</ref> Scottish band [[the Exploited]] were also influential, with the term "UK 82" (used to refer to UK hardcore in the early 1980s) being taken from one of their songs. They contrasted with early American hardcore bands by placing an emphasis on appearance. Frontman Walter "Wattie" Buchan had a giant red [[Mohawk hairstyle|mohawk]] and the band continued to wear [[swastikas]], an approach influenced by the wearing of this symbol by 1970s punks such as [[Sid Vicious]]. Because of this, the Exploited were labeled by others in the scene as "cartoon punks".<ref>Glasper 2004, p. 360</ref> Other influential UK hardcore bands from this period included [[Charged GBH|GBH]], [[Anti-Establishment (band)|Anti-Establishment]], [[Antisect]], [[Broken Bones (band)|Broken Bones]], [[Chaos UK]], [[Conflict (band)|Conflict]], [[Dogsflesh]], [[English Dogs]], and [[grindcore]] innovators [[Napalm Death]].
