Crossover Thrash (or Crossover) is a face-melting, brain-pounding combination of thrash metal and hardcore punk. It was started in the mid 1980s by bands like the Dirty Rotten Imbeciles, Stormtroopers of Death, and Corrosion of Conformity.
Crossover Thrash is often blindingly fast, with simple, metallic riffing, and punk-influenced shouting. Crossover is simpler, punkier, and not as heavy as typical thrash metal; but heavier and faster than typical hardcore punk.
Crossover and Metalcore are similar, but different, as both are hardcore punk - heavy metal fusions. But Crossover is faster and not as heavy, with punky shouted vocals; while metalcore is more mid-tempo and heavier, with screamed and/or growled vocals.

Get the Thrasher mug.the amount of times you are able to listen to the song "Iris" by The Goo Goo Dolls, without beginning to cry.

Get the thrashed thirds mug.A thrasher is anyone who lives and breathes thrash music. This might also be
(or at least should be) a metalhead.Though the thrasher is technically a metal head the thrasher will only listen to thrash metal and rarely go outside this genre. And if they do go outside they are bound to go back in to the genre in less than a few hours. The thrasher attire is farely simple and does not require any real money(except for the jacket which will be spoken about later) The tharsher look is to basically wear anything you have and not give a fuck what anyone says. This usually consists of old white high tops some tight jeans a band shirt(of any color) and the jean jacket. Now if said thrasher does not own any thrash band shirts then this person most likely has a jean jacket with his favorite metal bands on it. Since the jacket goes more into detail aboout what the thrasher likes the more it is taken around and the less likely it is to be washed. Thashers could care less about what anyone else thinks. The music that pisses the thrasher off most(and this is true for some metalheads) is ska Look it up it wont be defined here. The true thrasher goes to every gig he cans and as a result learns to be a pretty tough bitch considering hes been in more than 10 fights for no utter reason. Thrashers are great allies and you wont want to have any of them as enemies. Youll get fucked up....bad. Especially if you talk about there music. Thrash is all mighty to them. Thrashers are often found in other groups with other thrashers at night most likely going to a gig.
