Metalcore is not the first metal-hardcore hybrid, and a distinction is made between metalcore and crossover thrash, which is a hybrid of thrash metal and hardcore punk, but which, unlike metalcore which is broader in scope, focuses on a number of specific elements from both genres. The genre saw its beginnings in the late 80s when bands such as Integrity, Earth Crisis, and Converge began to fuse elements of the hardcore punk scene with the heavy metal and thrash metal scene. The genre is a diverse blend of a number of elements, melding the genreās roots in hardcore punk with death metal and and thrash metal. Metalcore, a portmanteau of metallic hardcore, is a fusion sub-genre of heavy metal.
