One of the most unique scenes within the genre, California Crust Punk can be interpreted as a wave of crusty punk/metal/grind bands during the late 80's and early to mid-90's that played an important (albeit sometimes uncredited) role in shaping the sound of modern crust. Early bands included Apocalypse, A//Solution, Carcinogen, Phobia, Plutocracy, Glycine Max, Neurosis, Mindrot, Confrontation, Dystopia, etc. Many of these bands hailed from southern California and/or the Bay Area and tended to blur the lines between the various strains of hardcore punk and extreme metal to create distinctly unique sounds within the scene at the time. Some notable bands that came later in the scene's history include Noothgrush, Skaven, Enewetak, Unruh, El Dopa, Dead America, Despise You, Gasp, Suffering Luna and many more that are most likely buried by time and dust. Although some of these bands can't be defined as crust in the strictest sense of the term, they each had ties and sympathies towards crust punk in some way, whether it was in sound or ethos. The scene more or less dissolved completely by the early/mid-2000's, but it's influence can still be heard in the sonic tapestries of many punk and metal bands around the world. The Oakland region of the Bay Area has continued to play host to many notable "crusty" bands such as Stormcrow, (later) Graves at Sea, Badr Vogu, Brainoil, Embers, Cruevo, etc.
Me: "I love nearly all of the bands from the California Crust Punk scene!"
Damn near any other person: "California what-punk?"

A reaction against the hipster culture; distinguished by their affiliation with awareness groups, use of vintage bicycles, unkept/unruly hair, preference for organic/fair trade/locally grown/vegetarian/vegan food, and dress of a gypsy-like quality. The abhor anything westernized. Their political affiliation tends to swing to either socialism/communism/anarchy (with the exception of Barack Obama.) They spend their time hula hooping (or firedancing), smoking clove cigarettes/hookah, and shopping at the local ethnic market place. Must be obsessed with diversity but friendship circle must consist of all white people...
"Hey Jesse, wanna go to the equinox festival? I hear is a "crust punk gypsy" hosting a drum circle and handing out PETA flyers...."

Look at that oogle crust punk faggot, they'd get way more attention if they wore bright colors instead of conforming exclusively to black and brown.
