Crossover thrash (or crossover) is a face-melting combination of thrash metal and hardcore punk. It was started in the 80's by bands such as Dirty Rotten Imbeciles, Stormtroopers of Death, and Corrosion of Conformity.
Crossover is scorchingly fast, with simple metallic riffs and more punk-influenced vocals. It is more punky than typical thrash metal, but it is more metallic than most hardcore punk (outside of grindcore).
Crossover Thrash is similar to Metalcore, but there are differences. Crossover is faster, punkier, and overall not as heavy, with shouted vocals; while metalcore is more mid-tempo and heavier, with screamed or growled vocals.
Bands include: Dirty Rotten Imbeciles, Corrosion of Conformity, Stormtroopers of Death, Suicidal Tendencies, and What Happens Next?

Get the crossover thrash mug.A fan of heavy metal music, specifically thrash metal, crossover thrash and sometimes thrashcore and hardcore punk. The modern "dress code for thrashers often includes, long hair, flipped-bill hats (a style borrowed from early 80s hardcore punk, specifically Suicidal Tendencies), a "Kutte" or "Battle Jacket" (a denim jacket or vest covered with band patches), and sometimes ammunition belts. Modern thrashers are often characterized by their love of classic thrash metal bands like Slayer or Exodus, as well as modern thrash metal like Municipal Waste and Warbringer, as well as their carefree "party dude" ethic in addition to the stereotype that they are excessive drinkers and music elitists.
