    In the 80s I was a Hardcore kid interested in fast music, skateboarding, just starting to be familiarized with some Metal music and the Crossover sound of both styles made me crazy on that time. Now at 50 years old I still listen to this a lot! My top 10 albums are:
    1 - Convicted (Cryptic Slaughter)
    2 - Animosity (COC)
    3 - American Paranoia (Attitude Adjustment)
    4 - Raw Power - Screams From The Gutter
    5 - Lobotomia (Lobotomia)
    6 - Crossover (DRI)
    7 - Absolut Country Of Sweden (Anti Cimex)
    8 - The Return Of Martha... (Accused)
    9 - Brasil (RDP)
    10 - Now That I Have... (Septic Death)

    Another less known crossover album I did like back in the day is 'The Evil in Good' by Mace.
    (And maybe not really crossover but crustcore/hardcore punk, to me they are: Sweden's Driller Killer and their album 'F*** the World' & The Exploited's 'The Massacre'.)

    4: S.O.D. - Speak English or Die
    5: The Accused - The Return of Martha Splatterhead
    I gotta give some honourable mentions to Sudden Impact - No Rest for the Wicked, Attitude Adjustment - American Paranoia, Raw Power - Screams from the Gutter, and Mr. Bungle - The Raging Wrath of the Easter Bunny

    Another great list, brother. 🤘🏻☠️🤘🏻 SOD is the perfect representation of crossover, definitely a classic album. Carnivore's Retaliation is another great example of crossover from that era, I was glad to see that it made the online list. Any conversation about this genre would be woefully lacking without mentioning Suicidal Tendencies, although I'd say they had pretty much fully completed their transition over to becoming a full on thrash band on Lights, Camera, Revolution. It's kinda hard to pin them down though, they've been drifting back toward their hardcore roots in their later years.

    I came from the early thrash metal scene and, after listening to DRI's "Dirty Rotten EP" & Suicidal's first LP, began to listen to a lot more punk than metal. I saw The Exploited play to a packed house in '84 & there weren't a dozen metalheads (including myself) in the crowd. I think the crossover phenomenon really hurt the punk scene more than anything. There was a totally different atmosphere at shows, lots more tension & less fun. Also, just for the record, The Cro-Mags were the absolute LOUDEST band I've ever seen play live.

    • @MDK2_Radio
      @MDK2_Radio 2 роки тому +2

      Hardcore in the mid-80s was going through changes because simple three-chord thrash was played out. Bands and musicians went all kinds of directions, crossover being one of the more successful ones. Punk rebounded when Bad Religion made their comeback and led to all the stuff that happened in the 90s. Ultimately crossover would be left behind, kind of the same way thrash metal was thanks to leading bands evolving their style and others breaking up to form groove metal groups. (To say nothing of the rise of new genres like groove, doom, stoner, death, 2nd wave black, etc.)

    New wave started dying out when I was sin high school (Sept. '84-June '87). A friend hated it so much that he'd crank up "Kill 'Em All" or "Fistful of Metal" in order to drown them out. But if Echo and the Bunnymen, InXS, or The Cure were playing, he'd bring out The Butthole Surfers or SOD. His fervent hatred of those bands bordered on psychosis.

I wish they kept touring frequently like say DRI. I got to see them 4 times around the bay area.
