===Precursors=== The most prominent influences upon crust punk were [[Crass]] and [[Discharge (band)|Discharge]]. Crass introduced the genre's [[anarchist]] ideology and its tattered, militaristic aesthetic, while Discharge introduced its apocalyptic themes and influence from [[heavy metal music|heavy metal]], particularly [[Motörhead]].<ref>{{cite book |last1=Pearson |first1=David |title=Rebel Music in the Triumphant Empire Punk Rock in the 1990s United States |date=2021 |isbn=9780197534885 |quote=Crass laid an ideological (anarchist), political, and aesthetic foundation for subsequent bands that sought to make punk a conscious political rebellion. But its peace- punk style would soon be usurped by a crucial development in punk's history: its crossover with heavy metal... Waksman cites British band Motörhead, whose Overkill album was released in that year, as the first punk/metal crossover to be recognized as such, largely because audiences at its performances were drawn from fans of the two genres... Perhaps the most significant band in this regard was Discharge, whose 1982 album ''Hear Nothing See Nothing Say Nothing'' became one of the most important reference points for 1990s political punk.}}</ref> Other metal bands to include the style included [[Hellhammer]] and [[Trouble (band)|Trouble]].<ref name="Rise of Crust" />
