I grew up in the 80's hardcore scene around here. I never once heard the term "thrash" used to describe hardcore punk.

I heard it used by Skaters to describe pretty much any music they could skate to, which is actually where (and why) the term was born. But outside THRASH, I've never heard it used to describe anything but THRASH - IE the entire 1984 bay area metal movement. Metallica, Megadeth, Annihilator, Forbidden, Exodus, Anthrax, etc....

Maybe now, retrospectively, people like to use the term differently (much like "hardcore" has been bastardized) but then and there, it's what defined the genre. And I will definitely go on record that it all started with Dave Mustaine. Before Dave, THRASH was just british heavy metal.
