"Hardcore" refers primarily to a branch of the Baptist Church. And there are over 200 branches. Southern Baptists, Northern Baptists, Footwashing Baptists, Freewill Baptists, Predestinarian Baptists. It could also be the name of a local congregation to show its affiliation. I have no information on this particular church.
