Cryptic slaughter, DRI.
Paul MasvidalHOST
Um, yeah, like kind of even some of the New York Lamores stuff like that whole scene, agnostic front.

TomGUEST
Like, I grew up listening to Kiss and then, like, you know, getting into hardcore and stuff.
TomGUEST
So I like stuff like D.R.I., you know-
MikeyHOST

TomGUEST

Shaun RossGUEST
Um, so I guess, you know, just, you know, just kind of growing up here, um, you just kind of learn how to navigate through it and hopefully unscathed, I guess.
ZackHOST
You play Oxnard a couple of times in 87, uh, the community center with the circle jerks and ill repute.
ZackHOST
And then a couple of times at the skate palace, uh, once with uniform choice and high racks and once with DRI and aggression.
ZackHOST

Paulie ChristineHOST
So this band, you know, I, I told...
Paulie ChristineHOST
In, in all honesty, I said, "I had to do my homework about this band." Uh, but as soon as I put it on, it brought me back to the days of slamming at CBGB's, wa- seeing DRI, Suicidal, Nuclear, in the pit, getting a boot to my fucking head a few fucking times a- as a kid, and that band [laughs] is Exhorder, as you can see behind me.
Paulie ChristineHOST
And who I'm talking to is the vocalist and guitar player, Kyle Thomas.
Paulie ChristineHOST
Kyle, thank you so much for being with us.

Kyle ThomasGUEST
it wasn't genre specific.
Kyle ThomasGUEST
But when I committed to heavy metal, I got passionate about it, and only wanted to hear that, and then, uh, eventually I opened my mind up to punk and hardcore, and that really changed everything for me.
Kyle ThomasGUEST
There was, uh, a period in my life where that, that, that's all that I was listening to, was anything from, um, like DRI, like you were saying, the early COC.
Paulie ChristineHOST
Bad Brains.
MorgothGUEST
Like, like those early Suicidal, like-
Dean K. PiperHOST
D.R.I.
MorgothGUEST
Yeah, D.R.I.
MorgothGUEST
I mean, you could go down the list, all, all the crossover.
MorgothGUEST
But I mean, metalcore is now h- and has been the biggest s- s- subgenre of heavy music for over 20 plus thir- 20 plus years at this point.
Pat SheridanGUEST
Local thrash metal bands like Cyanide, Abraxas, all this stuff.
Pat SheridanGUEST
And then shortly after, I saw D.R.I. with my brother.
Pat SheridanGUEST
Another
Toby MorseHOST
crossover band.
LarryHOST

LarryHOST
The Offenders, Mob 47, DRI, and DOA.
LarryHOST
Akron Notables.
Aaron MelnickGUEST
Crass is on there, I think.
XCubed420HOST
Mm-hmm.
Corey HughesHOST
Um, thrash- a, a perfect example of a thrash band would've been, like, old DRI.
Corey HughesHOST
They're not- weren't quite...
Corey HughesHOST
They were harder than punk, uh, but they weren't metal.
