Crucifix was an American hardcore punk band from the San Francisco Bay Area, active from 1980 to 1984. They were among the most popular acts of the San Francisco punk scene of the early 1980s. Fronted by Cambodian-born singer Sothira Pheng, Crucifix were distinct among American underground bands for their strong D-beat musical characteristics and anarchist lyrical content and graphic design. The band's debut 1983 full-length album Dehumanization on Crass Records‘ offshoot Corpus Christi Records, is considered by many critics and fans to be a cornerstone of political punk music. After their breakup, Crucifix’s members went on to form the bands Loudspeaker and Proudflesh.

- Crucifix (engl. „Kruzifix“) war eine Hardcore-Punk-Band aus dem US-amerikanischen Berkeley. Sie war von 1980 bis 1984 aktiv. Die Bandmitglieder verstanden sich als Anarchisten, und die Band wird dem Anarcho-Punk zugeordnet. Optisch orientierten sich Crucifix mit ihren Irokesenfrisuren am britischen Punk. Musikalisch zählt sie der Musikjournalist und American-Hardcore-Produzent Steven Blush zur „Essenz“ des kalifornischen Hardcores. Der Sänger Sothira Pheng kam aus Kambodscha, seine Familie flüchtete vor den Roten Khmer. (de)
