— The Lost and Damned Website

Liberty City Hardcore, also known as Liberty City Hardcore Classics or as an abbreviation, is a radio station that appears in Grand Theft Auto IV and is hosted by hardcore punk musician Jimmy Gestapo and plays hardcore punk from the NYHC (New York Hardcore) music scene, paying homage to New York City's rock scene at CBGB, an iconic bar where most of the bands featured have performed at one point or another.

In The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony it is hosted by Max Cavalera and plays extreme Metal genres. His segment is referred to as the "Blood Fire War Hate Death Metal Show".

Trivia

The song "Day in the Life" by Murphy's Law is played in Patrick McReary's game trailer, and Bucky Sligo's friends listen to this station in his house.
This station plays at both the Lost MC Clubhouse and Brian Jeremy's Safehouse. It also plays at the Underground Gun Shops in Broker and Alderney City.
This station is the favourite station of the Angels of Death, and it is the default station on all AoD gang members' bikes. It is also the favourite of the Skinheads and one of the favourite stations of the Albanian Mob (the other being K109 The Studio).
Lost MC members Jim Fitzgerald, Johnny Klebitz, Clay Simons and Terry Thorpe all like this station. Henrique Bardas also likes this station.
The song "Jailbait" by Drive By Audio can only be heard in the downloadable version of The Lost and Damned, as for unknown reasons it is not featured on the disc version of Episodes from Liberty City.
Occasionally Jimmy Gestapo can be heard going into on-air rants against "California kids and their parking lot punk tours", a reference to the popular touring punk-based music festival Vans Warped Tour and how many of the bands that played at Warped Tour in the 2000's were California-based.
- This is one of the few times where California is directly mentioned in the HD Universe instead of its counterpart, San Andreas.
