Mmm, but there are seriously people who live on Wikipedia and jump at an article as soon as someone edits it. You just have to look at the discussion page of any article to see that there are 10 people ready to fix it at any one time. Still, I wouldn't use Wikipedia for a research paper... universities don't tend to like that.
I guess Bane of Your Existence might have to settle for the word of people in this matter, because I can't be arsed looking for a proper source which concurs. Thrash metal is a metal genre, but it is very influenced by punk rock, and tends to be more complex. The punk/thrash similarities can be especially seen in some bands like Municipal Waste, Cro-Mags etc. Both genres tend to have similar aspirations.
