Favorite grindcore band?

For myself, it definetely goes to Agoraphobic Nosebleed. They can compress an entire bad day into 30 seconds.

Nothing is better than having the worst day of your life and then being able to put on headphones and release it all to the soundtrack of "Hungry Homeless Handjob" or "Bitches Handbag Full of Money".

they're pretty good but they can't realy beat early napalm death can they. do you like pig destroyer?

discordance axis will always be my favorite.

Spazz

Ag Nosebleed
Early Minus
Napalm Death (of Course)

Agoraphobic Nosebleed, Napalm Death, Pig Destroyer, all good. This is turning into a remarkably unargumentative thread.

I've supported Minus, but only in their crap quasi-rock n roll incarnation.

Machetazos
Brob
Catheter
Rise Above

Nasum

Napalm Death
Assuck
Anal Cunt

Neanderthal

Crossed Out (...and I saw 'em play 4 or 5 times--SHOCKING)

wait, i'll start the first disagreement: Spazz is definitely power violence, not grind.



...ah, fuck it. i'm just trying to start some controversy. looks like grind fans fight less than any other genre posters i've seen. how's that for irony?

(p.s. discordance axis gets my vote.)

Rise above isnt grind

there you go....

controversy

spazz *fuck it ill put em in grind*
napalm death
brutal truth

PIG DESTROYER!

I was just listening to 'Prowler In The Yard'. Love it. In a way I almost wish it wasn't grindcore and that his vocals were more intelligible - the lyrics are amazing, which is a rare thing in grindcore (in my experience anyway).

haha, I just had that discussion last night with my friends. They all abhore grindcore, and the like... but they read the lyrics and thought it was some of the greatest stuff they've read in a while.

Strangled With A Halo is an ingenius song... either way.

Pig Destroyer....the Stephen Hawking-esque voice intro in the beginning is maybe the coolest intro to any record ever! I also really like local band Benumb.

wait, wait, does charles bronson count???

if were counting spazz we can count CB

Impaled
Exhumed
Carcass
Repulsion
Blood Freak
Napalm Death
Haemorrhage
Cattle Decapitation

What the fuck is grindcore? I probably like some of the groups but all these subgenres are just beyond me.

go listen to the first napalm death album *entitled scum if yer hitting up some filesharing*.....thats about it in a nutshell

I don't really like grindcore, but Pig Destroyer and Brutal Truth are sufficient for my tastes. Cattle Decapitation is something more I'd go for due to the noise / industrial vibe I get out of their material.

Okay, maybe this one skipped over me entirely. I was thinking Eyehategod but that's not in the same department, really.
