On the [[Alan Lomax]] collection ''Songs of Seduction'' (Rounder Select, 2000), there is a bawdy Irish folk song called "The Thrashing Machine" sung by tinker Annie O'Neil, as recorded in the early 20th century.

In his film score for ''[[Of Mice and Men (1939 film)|Of Mice and Men]]'' (1939) and consequently in his collection ''Music for the Movies'' (1942), American composer [[Aaron Copland]] titled a section of the score "Threshing Machines," to suit a scene in the [[Lewis Milestone]] film where Curley is threatening Slim over giving May a puppy, when many of the itinerant worker men are standing around or working on threshers.

In the song "Thrasher" from the album ''[[Rust Never Sleeps]]'', [[Neil Young]] compares the modern threshing machine's technique of separating wheat from wheat stalks to the natural forces of time that separate close friends from one another.

Threshing machines appear in [[Twenty One Pilots]]' music video for the song "[[House of Gold (Twenty One Pilots song)|House of Gold]]".

The song The ''"Thrashing Machine"'' By [[Chad Morgan]] Depicts Chadwick trying to impress a girl by showing her his threshing machine.
