In the music documentary film American Hardcore, Vic Bondi, of the band Articles of Faith, expresses the ethos of the 80s American hardcore punk movement, presented as opposing Reagan and the mainstream, stating, "Everyone was saying it was morning in America. Someone had to say, 'It's fucking midnight!'"
Bondi resurfaced with another politically charged band, Report Suspicious Activity, in 2006, and was featured prominently in the documentaries American Hardcore and You Weren't There.
