Best current grindcore/grindcore-influenced bands

along the lines of cwv, palatka, asshole parade, and end of the century party live taught cwv where to go... or at least that's what it came down to in the florida scene... palatka pretty much sit as most memorable to me (and i've seen all of those bands several times...)

bucket full of teeth... that's more screamo hardcore-ish no? members of orchid and so on...

i'd check out dillinger escape plan's "calculating infinity" ... reversal of man... in/humanity ... his hero is gone... the swing kids...

if you want more power-violence type stuff... try the hair police... harry pussy... early black dice... melt banana

i dunno... like you said... it's easy to go so aggro that you eventually yawn at every and anything. the logical conclusion of "LET'S FUCK SHIT UP!!!" eventually falls apart.

i dig on it... but it's definitely something to be taken lightly and very occasionally...

best grind band was mexican power authority who i don't think are around anymore. they had flutes and clarinet and everything but were totally fast.

gasp _drome triler_
- awesomely fucked up stuff on slap-a-ham, psychedelic damage

asterisk
- in general - pretty deranged shit, someone described them to me as 'grind meets shellac', which is somewhat accurate

burmese _burmese_
clotted symmetric sexual organ

one of my favorite releases lately is a CDR bootleg of an album by the japanese band confuse - it's from 86 or so, proto-grind hardcore stuff with production so fucked up it renders the music an eardrum damaging white noise blast.

if you're on soulseek, hit me up (id: rankingmonkey) and i'll rip it for you, or i can burn you a copy or something... i'll be at terrastock til monday, though.

Bathtub Shitter a lot better than I expected, given the name

Yeah, they're surprisingly musical.

I also discovered that I like Kill the Client, and previously underrated ND's "Time Waits for No Slave"

Kill the Client were fantastic. I got to see them live (along with Wormrot) at South by Southwest in 2011.

does anybody listen to Ripped to Shreds? fucking love them.

they have that buzzsaw Dismember guitar tone, but their riffs are mega memorable and have clarity, and they're also pro-BLM which made me throw a few extra dollars their way.

Nope, but if they even remotely sound like Dismember I'll check 'em out.

they don't really outside of the production, but it's really good stuff nonetheless.

so, been trying to find more 80s crust punk/hardcore/proto-grind/early grindcore to listen to, specifically the stuff from UK. stuff like Siege, Heresy, Sore Throat, Unseen Terror, etc, but the google lists I've looked at always wanna suggest like 90s/21st century grind. I've been told to check out Infest as well as S.O.B., anybody have any other suggestions?

blast beats a plus, and again, doesn't have to be actual grind/grind, but perhaps the stuff that influenced it or was close to grind

the occasional thread for mean, nasty, ugly, evil hardcore/grind/PV/fastcore that doesn't smell good and that takes itself way too seriously

mostly 90s and beyond stuff though on that thread. felt like i should link it anyway.

for 80s, go to finland. riistetyt. appendix. rattus. etc.

Disrupt
Neos
Septic Death

Poo I knew you'd be the dictionary I was looking for. thanks!

I love Disrupt

most of that is more grind-adjacent tbh, rather than wall-to-wall blastbeats, but the UK bands in particular were basically the same scene as the bands you listed

Yeah, Disrupt were great, also try Totalitär from Sweden:

https://armageddonlabel.bandcamp.com/album/wallbreaker-1986-1989

good call. another Swedish band who get mentioned on "fastest hardcore band" lists is Asocial

Asocial were cool. so many cool Swedish bands.

also, just in case someone hasn't heard it. one of the granddaddies like siege and deep wound.

I finally got a copy of the Siege discography last year on FOAD records. Italian label that reissues shit loads of stuff like this

MOB 47
ANTI CIMEX

If I really really like the Internal Rot album Mental Hygiene, what other grind should I check out?

Oh and also xp

CRUDE SS

i grew up on discordance axis era grind and don’t know a lot of the older stuff well. if i like terrorizer, assuck, and metal riffs a lot, where should i go?

if i like terrorizer, assuck, and metal riffs a lot, where should i go?

Rotten Sound, Mortalized, Kill The Client, Wormrot, Phobia

hell yeah, all of those bands are sick. but i’m familiar with em since i did keep up, just didn’t really go back too much… any 80s/early 90s stuff that scratches this kinda itch? (sorry if that wasn’t clear, was inspired by the revive)

Fuckin love Doom, exactly what I was looking for.
