Grindcore is an extreme fusion genre of heavy metal and hardcore punk that originated in the mid-1980s, drawing inspiration from abrasive-sounding musical styles, such as thrashcore, [3] [4] crust punk, [5] hardcore punk, extreme metal, and industrial.
- Napalm Death – Scum (Earache, 1987) It’s impossible to imagine just how life-changing/brain-destroying it would have been for the average person to be exposed to Scum back in 1987.
- Nasum – Helvete (Relapse, 2003) Having never dropped a bad record, Nasum were the true kings of Scandinavian grindcore up until the untimely death of frontman Mieszko Talarczyk in the devastating Indian Ocean tsunami that killed hundreds of thousands back in 2004.
- Trap Them – Darker Handcraft (Prosthetic, 2011) Though it could be argued that Trap Them are more of a hardcore or perhaps crust band, they really could grind with the best of them up until their dissolution in 2017.
- Pig Destroyer – Terrifyer (Relapse, 2004) Arguably the finest U.S. grindcore record of all time – and certainly one of the best bass-free metal records ever released – Terrifyer, is frankly terrifying.

- Repulsion – Horrified (1989) Originally recorded in 1986, Horrified is simply the grindcore motherlode. Filthy, breakneck, two-minute death metal tunes delivered with swivel-eyed zeal, drenched in lyrical splatter and driven by drummer Dave Grave’s breathless blasting, it paved the way for the entire grindcore scene and still sounds insanely exciting 30 years on.
- Napalm Death – From Enslavement To Obliteration (1988) The gods of grind incinerated the rulebook with their 1987 debut Scum, but it was the follow-up that truly cemented the essence of balls-out grind.
- Terrorizer – World Downfall (1989) Morbid Angel men David Vincent and Pete Sandoval teamed up with vocalist Oscar Garcia and guitarist Jesse Pintado (later of Napalm Death) for this monstrous explosion of deathly grindcore fury.
- Nasum – Inhale/Exhale (1998) The band that injected fresh adrenalin into grindcore’s nebulous template as a new millennium loomed, Nasum’s nails-hard extremity upgrade ensured that their debut album was almost universally hailed as a classic.
- Napalm Death — Scum. (Earache, 1987) Some critics called Napalm Death's debut "the end of music," but for headbangers worldwide, it was the beginning of something great.
- Carcass — Symphonies of Sickness. (Earache, 1989) Before they pioneered melodic death metal, Carcass pioneered gore-grind, with their sophomore splattercore "symphony."
- Siege — Drop Dead. (Relapse, 1994) Siege was formed in early-Eighties Boston by four hardcore kids alienated by the self-righteous straight-edge scene and enthralled in heavy metal.
- Brutal Truth — Need to Control. (Earache, 1996) New York avant-grinders Brutual Truth were at their unconventional best on their second opus, which embraced odd instruments (a didgeridoo on the song "Godplayer"), bizarro guitar lines, and diverse influences from metal to punk.
Grindcore is an extreme music style originated basically to mix: hardcore punk, crust punk, thrash metal and death metal. It emerged in the mid 80s in the UK and USA. Structurally songs tend to be short, simple, direct and ultra-fast.
