Crossover came out in the early 80's with the first, Sucidal Tendencies first album in 1983 was basically the start of it, though that album was not as crossover oriented as their future material, it still had elements of what would become crossover.
Between that and 1985 you had Attitude Adjustment, Cryptic Slaughter, S.O.D., Corrosion of Conformity, DRI, The Accused, Nuclear Assualt and Carnivore, and a few others.
Youth Crew was also mid 80's. Started by Youth of Today, who released their "Can't Close My Eyes" EP in 1985, which featured the song "Youth Crew" which was where it all came from.

my understanding of the history of mellodic hardcore is very limited. thanks for the correction. as for me stating that hardcore was started in the early 80's i am aware that it has rootes before that with bands like bad brains, ect, but i see minor threat as the ones who kick started it into high gear.
since you're more knowledgable on the subject could you please make a sticky thread on hardcore to inform this section on it? i was going to make one but you seem much more qualified so could you please make a sticky?
