If anything, hardcore punk rockers would likely vote 3rd party or not at all.

They definitely tend to lean left, as all my friends in that scene do. But there are more and more punks on forums spouting pro-Trump rhetoric, and it's fans of "mainstream" bands, not the Nazi stuff.
Jon Lyden (Johnny Rotton of the Sex Pistols) was photographed wearing a MAGA shirt and has said he'll vote for him. Duane Peters of U.S. Bombs is making skateboard decks with Trump on it. Glenn Danzig supported the travel ban.
It sucks.
