Abstract
This research is entitled "The Meaning of the 'X' Symbol as a Symbol of the Healthy Living Movement in the Song "Straight Edge" by xEN NUESTRAS MANOSx in the Hardcore Subculture." This research is motivated by the use of the "X" symbol as a primary identity within the Straight Edge movement, which has developed within the hardcore subculture. The symbol not only functions as a visual sign but also represents the values of healthy living, self-control, and the rejection of destructive behaviors such as alcohol, drug, and cigarette consumption. This study aims to determine the meaning of the "X" symbol as a symbol of the healthy living movement represented in the song "Straight Edge" by xEN NUESTRAS MANOSx. Furthermore, this study also aims to understand how hardcore music is used as a medium of cultural communication in spreading Straight Edge values and shaping the community's collective identity. The research method used is a descriptive qualitative approach with Roland Barthes' semiotic analysis. The research data consists of the lyrics of the song "Straight Edge" by xEN NUESTRAS MANOSx and various symbols associated with the Straight Edge movement. The analysis was conducted through the stages of denotation, connotation, and myth to uncover the meaning contained in the lyrics and symbols used. The results of this study indicate that, at the denotative level, the "X" symbol is interpreted as a sign indicating a choice to live free from alcohol, drugs, cigarettes, and other destructive behaviors. At the connotative level, the "X" symbol represents the values of discipline, self-control, healthy living awareness, responsibility, and community solidarity. Meanwhile, at the mythical level, the "X" symbol is understood as a moral and ideological identity that represents the healthy living movement within the Straight Edge community. This study also found that Straight Edge songs function not only as musical works but also as a medium of cultural communication that conveys the ideology, values, and identity of the hardcore subculture. Through song lyrics, the "X" symbol, and various community cultural practices, music plays a role in building solidarity, spreading healthy living messages, and strengthening the collective identity of Straight Edge members. Keywords: Roland Barthes' Semiotics, X Symbol, Straight Edge, Hardcore, HealthyLiving, Cultural Communication.
