were not talking about Thrash Metal here (in itself had some Hardcore influence), but the subgenre of Thrash Metal and Hardcore coined "Crossover", which started out as mostly Hardcore bands looking in a new direction for playing fast music, ie Thrashy picking, Crunchier guitar tones, Moshy breakdowns, etc. DRI, COC, SOD, Suicidal Tendencies, Agnostic Front, The Accused  early Nuclear Assault and some others are probably the more proper examples of the subgenre

Er, I was answering to DatM (see above) who was asking if Thrash wasn't already a kind of "crossover".

A question for those in the know:

I've been brushing up on my metal history, checking bands in the late 70's, early 80's, and well... isn't thrash itself a blend of heavy metal and hardcore, making pretty much ALL Thrash "crossover" ?

I´ve heard from this band


Good question, but most likely not.

Cool band though btw.

They were pretty much a hardcore punk/metalcore hybrid, rather than a thrash metal/hardcore punk (which is a big part of crossover thrash).

I can see how you may have thought they were crossover thrash, but not quite.

Exactly Wink

I like their later stuff too, but it's a completely different vibe.

yup, early Grindcore bands, but also very much Thrashcore/Crossover especially in the Thrashy picking, Electro Hippies actually became more of a Crust band later on

Well, how much crossover thrash have you heard that uses the word "cytoplast" in their lyrics, or as drastic shifts in mood as the song Male Supremacy contains? Wink

when you say "sophisticated", Im assuming you mean it in more of an ironic sense? Wink
