Crate edge. A sub-genre of hardcore punk originating in New Zealand. A pun on straight edge (commonly abbreviated sXe). Crate edge bands share a philosophy that drinking is just fine and can be extremely enjoyable if done right. There should be no compulsion for anyone to not drink or to drink, as it is a personal choice. As such, it is opposed to the puritanical straight edge fringe that resorts to violence against those who do not share their ideals. Originated in New Zealand by bands such as Syphilis Bitch and P City Punks.
