Alkol plays thrash metal with crossover punk attitude from Rome since 2017, another alcohol-themed act channeling intoxicated energy into high-speed riffing. The Eternal City's punk-metal crossover scene provides a natural home for their no-frills aggression.
All Borders Kill delivers crossover thrash from Montpellier since 2017, their politically charged name reflecting the anti-authoritarian lyrics that fuel their punk-metal fury. Their Mediterranean origins add warmth to what is otherwise an uncompromising sonic assault.
San Francisco thrash/crossover outfit bringing Bay Area aggression to the modern era. Their debut EP channels the spirit of Municipal Waste and D.R.I. through tight, frenetic riffing.
Tewksbury, Massachusetts crossover thrash from 1990 — a snapshot of the late-80s/early-90s thrash-meets-punk underground. P.B.A. captures the raw, fast energy of the era's DIY crossover scene.
Always War delivers crossover and hardcore from Uppsala since 2010. Their perpetual-conflict name drives fifteen years of punk-influenced aggression from Sweden's ecclesiastical capital.
Portland crossover thrash outfit serving chaotic energy since 2013. Across three EPs — including a split with Slowbro — they deliver the kind of reckless, fun-first thrash that keeps the Pacific Northwest's punk-metal intersection alive and dangerous.
Houston crossover thrash project from the Texas underground.
Active since the early 1990s in Murcia, Angel Negro played thrashcore fueled by the influence of Soziedad Alkoholika and Beer Mosh, with socially conscious lyrics delivered in Spanish.

Salt Lake City crossover thrash project from the Utah underground.
