Current revision
Thrashcore (or thrash) is a fast and raw brand of hardcore punk music. Thrashcore saw its beginnings after the decline of punk rock in the early 1980s. Hardcore punk began to take off in places like Washington, D.C. and California. Early bands categorized as thrash, such as Minor Threat, played faster hardcore punk and they distinguished themselves from other hardcore punk bands such as Black Flag. Some bands incorporated elements of thrash metal. These bands are often categorized as crossover thrash. Many of the most influential crossover thrash bands started out as influental thrashcore bands. Thrashcore as a genre ties in heavily to hardcore, grindcore, power violence, crust, and other subgenres of punk rock. Today thrashcore is mostly a definition for ultra-fast hardcore punk.
625 Thrashcore, Havoc, Hardcore Holocaust, Ebullition, Crimes Against Humanity, Slap-a-Ham, Unfun Records and other labels have been known to put out thrashcore records.
