no I think we did have that here but I think more towards the end of the decade, and probably not really stuff I was into tbh

nirvana were seen by kerrang readers as metal (except by the people who didnt like them)
indie weekly mags saw them as indie. Manic Street Preachers also straddled both. As did anything grunge really.
Wasnt til later really that rock/metal were seen as separate things.

It wasn't exactly uncommon for folk to have sabbath,zep,purple, pistols, ramones, metallica, killing joke, megadeth, the cult, the mission, sisters of mercy, ac/dc,motorhead,maiden, whitesnake ,priest, slayer, janes addiction and nirvana in their collections.
esp when bands like metallica and megadeth played punk songs live

skid row covering ramones got a few of my younger pals into them actually.

Infact I can pinpoint the moment young kids stopped listening to the older heavy rock bands here. It was nu metal where anything traditional was seen as old fashioned.

I remember seeing Jello Biafra speak in 2000. He praised someone in the crowd for having the 'courage' to wear a Metallica T-shirt with a punk spiked jacket. It seemed strange to me bc I had never known anyone who wore spiked jackets that disliked Metallica.

I think Megadeth's version of "Anarchy in the UK" might have been the first one I heard.

fwiw I saw Jello Biafra speak in 2015 and he criticized the staff at 924 Gilman for losing the actual vinyl record of "Little Marcie sings to ($1.98) Children" and only having the album sleeve lying around ... it is a classic album of the creepy christian ventriloquist genre tbh.

Creepy Christian ventiloquists are p metal.

My rule of thumb: are the vocals obnoxious? If the answer is an unqualified 'yes', then it's punk.
