The first 30 seconds of this is the most accurate, coherent and thoughtful explanation of grind core there is. Very good that it's saved for posterity.
Saw him play with Brutal Truth in a sandwich shop! Most stoned band I've ever seen. Saw many of his other bands too. He even gave my friends a joint when they spotted him tokin up at a festival
i have an huge amount of respect for the fact that this documentary opens with the grandfathers of grindcore. i kinda thought people of today forgot about repulsion.
Absolutely. I live in Flint and have seen Repulsion many times locally and in Detroit. Mick Harris was constantly in competition with Dave Grave. He loves Repulsion though of course.
Agreed. It is a really interesting and enjoyable watch. I haven't listened to any grind for a while, so I am going to have a good old go when this finishes!!!
Love that they touched on the Southeast Asian scene. Metal and punk fans from that part of the world are incredibly passionate and brutal, it's awesome to see them get more exposure
I don't think anyone deserves more spotlight than southeast/east Asia right now, last 20 years has been FUCKING FERAL from there. It would be awesome to catch some shows there.
If Metallica, Megadeth,Slayer and Anthrax are the big four of Thrash metal then Siege,Repulsion,Terrorizer and Napalm Death are the equivalent of that for Grindcore.
This documentary is longer than all the grindcore albums in the world combined! Also I can't believe nobody even mentioned Scott Lewis, the original Brutal Truth drummer. Still the fastest grinding drummer of all time I'd say!
@Karl Lykos in san bernardino, in 1993, i saw original lineup exhumed,BT,the pain teens boredoms and mindrot (before they signed to relapse) it was an awesome era... and scott lewis was the fucking man that night.. he smoked everyone behind the kit.
Sandoval is to death metal what Lombardo is to thrashand barker is to pop punk but Pete is the ruler by far .watch him play to Ludwig van Beethoven here on RUclips. SICK.
I feel lucky I was able to see A.C. not long before Seth's passing. Say what you will about the dude and the band but it was definitely a fun night for me. Getting wasted at an A.C. show, great times!
You can tell in Tim Morse's voice "He was my friend" you can tell he genuinely misses that dude and the same with Shane talking about Jesse. That's actually pretty sad that is. Rest in Power though to both of them.
Yeah no doubt. You can hear it for sure. Ive had the pleasure of hanging, playing shows with and being around a lot of these guys and bands for 25+ years. Just so much damn fun....there wasn't too many asshole folks in the scene...everyone was pretty swell...Cool to see this doc though..🤘🤘
I bought this documentary, but I am glad that now is free for everyone, hopefully this compendium of grind/no music will reach a lot of people with interest in boundaries of music. Stay safe, mosh in house.
Honestly I'm not surprised, that Mick declined to be interviewed. He has nothing to do with Napalm Death anymore for 30+ years and even Scorn and his other newer musical projects are more or less on hold. And even though I like semi-comedy-Grind like Birdflesh, Noisecore and the more straight Grind-stuff like Nasum, Mick Harris' contributions after Napalm Death are far more interesting for me (he influenced a lot of artists from genres like Drum'n'Bass, Deep Dubstep and the more abstract side of turntablism).
As someone who has been more of a casual Grind fan until the last few months where I have gotten much more into it, I thank you for this! It introduces me to a lot of the classic Grind bands.
Awesome to see PLF on here. Maybe my fav grind guitarist and drummer. Remember seeing them at Dayton Dirt Collective years ago. So flawless, fast, yet made it look so easy.
When I was young everyone loved AC. All these pussies now pretend they always hated them because they're not allowed to like them anymore. Bunch of reddit fagits.
@@NoOne-ns8rtnot really, like even calling someone “a bundle of sticks” nowadays gets you cancelled at grind shows shit is sad how sensitive people are
So happy to see this documentary in yt for free, i'm from brazil and buying this doc is unrealistic, i'ts like paying U$120 in a movie, totally worth it, but brazil live in very poor conditions, so much love from Brazil, in grind we trust
Had this on DVD for a while, hadn't noticed you uploaded it here. Such a great documentary! Makes me wish someone would do a film on Napalm Death (even going into Scorn, Godflesh, Carcass etc too) because the people going in and out of that band/scene and the various influences and such is so interesting
Great Documentary - Thanks for sharing! I have to say I am somewhat surprised that Mick Harris declined to be interviewed, he usually can't be stopped when it comes to talking about ND and given the quality of the Doc it's a real shame he didn't take part. Also this is the first time I have heard the full back story to Terrorizer, so sad that they broke up in such a fashion, World Downfall still is one of my favourite albums.
Awesome documentary. Fukking stellar. My band Last Red Ember played with Anal Cunt in our home state New Jersey. We co headlined the show with em. It was fukking awesome. We pmayed with a few others that popped up in the documentary too. Always fun shows and great dudes. We were way more on the metal side of heavy but if youve ever been to a show in jersey you know goddamn well it doesnt matter if all the bands on the bill are from oppositte sides of the metal universe, its gonna be epic no matter what style the bands rep. There's no scene like the jersey scene. Thanks to this channel for the documentary, thanks to the bands weve met and played with and those i haven't for all your hard work, sacrafices, and love and for giving me some great friends, but mostly thank all heavy music fans for making it all possible. It truly is the fans that deserve thanks for all your dedication and love and endless support for me and all musicians in heavy music anywhere. My deepest gratitude and respect goes out to any motherfukker thats gone to watch any heavy local band anywhere. Stay hard friends. Love will eventually save the world. Oh and ps.......get high motherfukkers!!!!!!!!
Crazy!! Just clicked on this and at 3.49 it's the cover to issue two of 'Guilty of What?' - the fanzine I did in my wee Scottish town when I was aged 12 in 1982. Funnily enough, issue 3, which was published in August 1982, had one of the first write-ups the original line-up of Napalm Death ever received and i'm still good pals with Nick and Miles to this day and was working for Lee's label last year! Cheers for the memories and hope the film does well :)
I was lucky enough to be in attendance for ANB’s first ever live performance that Richard Johnson is talking about at 1:33:05. They weren’t even scheduled to be playing. Pig Destroyer was on and cut their set a little short and said that a surprise was coming up next even though they were the final band that was supposed to be playing that stage. It was a great surprise and an amazing experience.
Grind has turned into some kind of party joke these days, with plungers, party favors and cosplay.... who remembers the old days when it was still pure and insane as hell?
Thanks for sharing this for free, appreciated, though barely mentioning Extreme Noise Terror and completely overlooking Bolt Thrower's first two albums is criminal.
I know what you mean, but they can't include everything. I remember Bolt Thrower from their free flexi-disc with White Dwarf: Blood for the Blood God. I thought it would make sense to show some Discharge, since more than one person here cites them as an influence over the early sound, at least of Napalm Death. It's not an explanation of genres, but so many riffs on this doco seemed like Death Metal riffs: is it just the drums and tempo that make it grindcore? Then there's the guy who hates Power Violence. It made me wonder what the genre differences are and which bands blur those distinctions.
Agoraphobic Nosebleed split LP with Cattlepress is one of the best pieces of music ever recorded. Both sides. This video here got me so excited. Good stuff guys. Thank you.
I had that split 12. I remember not liking agrophobic nosebleed apart from on this 12. Hordes to abolish the divine was killer. Am surprised no one ever really got into cattlepress
11:00 - Mr. Clark, I first heard 'Drop Dead' at 14 in 2003 and it was one a handful of albums that set me on the metal path. You guys deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as Napalm Death
Wow, thanks for sharing this... I grew up heavy into punk/hardcore punk.... Loved black, death, hardcore metal, never got to hear genocide or repulsion... Looking into buying the film and their music now ... Thanks again
Love the docu just wish Assuck would've been mentioned. Thought they were one of the most influential Grindcore bands ever. Still think Anti-capital is one of the best Grind albums ever. Anyway, just being nit picky I guess otherwise, great docu.
@@rockyh3425 True, sure wasn't the catchiest that's probably why I liked them so much to be honest. I just remember back in the day everyone I knew that liked Grindcore loved the shit out of them. I still proudly wear an Assuck patch I got shit, damn near 30 years ago.
Assuck were amazing. They clearly has the grind sound, yet they always seemed to me as being more involved in the power violence scene. When I saw them live they played with Spazz and Born Against.
The first time I had heard of Seth Putnam was through Pantera, Phil Anselmo invented him in 1996 to do some screams on the "Great southern trend kill" album, he is noted in the credits. Phil always had his eyes on the underground.
I was present when Seth & Phil met for the first time. It was at an AxCx gig, here in New Orleans, at a place called Zeppelin's, which was run by a pair of bothers (Joey & Guy) who were friends of mine. They had all kinds of killer bands play there: Immolation, Mercyful Fate, Pungent Stench, etc. Anyway, I was outside the venue w/ my friend Andy, who was playing bass in Apostasy w/ me at the time, & I saw Seth & decided to go rap w/ him a lil bit. The three of us were talking for a bit, & then Phil walked up & started kicking the shit w/ us. I'd been knowing Phil for years, just through the music scene here & having mutual friends & such. Apostasy practiced next door to The Satanic, who Phil was drumming for around that time (check them out on my channel) & we played a sick gig together. Anyway, shortly after that meeting b/w Seth & Phil, they started hanging out regularly w/ each other & making music together & shit. I saw 'em together at a weed-smoking parade not long after that (Krewe of Dreaux). We drank a bunch of free keg-beer & got fucked up, had a blast. Joey Lacaze (RIP - my boy who played drums for EYEHATEGOD) was w/ 'em, too. Those were fucking amazing times.
Yeah, saw Putnam scream onstage with Pantera in Worcester, Massachusetts early 2000's. With Morbid Angel, Soulfly, and some opener I forgot not even worth mentioning.
Such a shame that this documentary basically ignored Prowler in the Yard and Pig Destroyer. That album alone was INCREDIBLY influential to the entire Grindcore scene and extreme metal in general.
Yes sir this guy right here it's like in deathcore if u ignore bands like blood runs black or through the eyes of the dead when these two bands literally laid the foundation for deathcore 1.0 well the first wave of deathcore
Really good to see jan AG, dave witte, and chang in the first few mins. Agathocles and Discordance Axis were huge parts of my life starting around 1996. Only 5 mins in and very interested so far...
Appreciate the sharing of this doc! Enjoyed it. That being said... wondering why there wasn’t any mention of Assück though? Seems like a pretty substantial omission.
Jack you turned me on to Assuck in 93 at the Blue Chair. They played with Ima. You apologized to me for saying Assuck on my mom's answering machine. haha Hope you are well.
@@incredulouslamias8052 Michael moore is piece of shit mouthpiece of the left. Republicans Democrats has a lot of sack of shits, hence we are stuck at home with no concerts for the foreseeable future but professional contact sports can resume.
Thank you for finding and sharing all of the bands you've posted. You've taken away the need to search for great music and have become an outlet for all of us freaks to keep up with the real deal every single fucking post.
GGsGrave I listened to them a lot in my mid 20s. I thought most everything was dope as fuck and then helvete came out and I was just blown away. I thought inhale/exhale was going to be my favorite until helvete. I bought the grind finale album and was really pleased to hear dirtier recordings and raw sound the first time I heard it. I think that they would of continued to make the genre expand in creativity and speed. And everyone that talks about mieszko always talks about how much he loved what he did. It’s just super lame that what happened happened.
Just got into grindcore 5years ago or some. This pretty much feed my knowledge of what Grindcore is, and the history of ND, and Brutal Truth which were the first bands I got into it as well Carcass.
Really wish you'd specify when back then you drummed for them. That you're a misogynist and a homophobe goes without saying but it would be nice to contextualize your villainy in finer detail before decrying it. I'm doing a think piece for the Guardian -"Toolin' for Justice" - on eighties hardcore and toxic masculinity and it's all sort of touch-and-go right now because I don't know what the fuck I'm talking about. I'd like to have a frank discussion with you about the depth of your involvement in the drive-by fruiting of the Clitboys, the Nubiles-Bunsen burnings, and the assassination of John Lennon. Any feedback is much appreciated. Cheers and how dare you, - Fitchpork Ghristcau, M.F.A.

I grew up in Port Huron, MI. Never heard of you guys. He wasn't lying about having your future be in the Auto industry growing up in Michigan. That's why I left. Cool vid.
I was about 1 hour in of this and I was wondering "where's Agathocles, they gotta mention it, there's no way they left it out" and soon after I saw "Belgium" and I just knew it. Here's hoping for part 2 some time with focus to sub-genres of Grind - Noisecore/Noisegrind, Goregrind, Pornogrind, Cybergrind etc.
Man this documentary takes me back to my middleschool years (discovered Napalm Death and Carcas back then) up to my college years when I got into Nasum, Pig Destroyer and Brutal Truth (right before their first break up). The 90s were a special time. Loved Relapse Records I bought releases from them every pay day from 98-2002. Was one of my favorite labels.
This is a great documentary. Being someone that comes from the more 'punk' side of things I like that they don't shy away from the connections grind and punk have.
im a deathmetal guy never really bothered about punk but always loved classic grind especially goregrind too and it was great they touched on the subgenres and gave me more understanding of the punkside
i've been listening to Napalm Death since 1990 and Barney is still growling on!! love all the other early 90s grindcore too during my teenage tape-trading days shuffling trough my highschool hallways with headphones on from my Sony walkman listening to lots of death metal, grindcore and black metal....fuck it was good being young back then!!!!
I can remember being a Smiths/Cure fan in 89 and being given a copy of From Enslavement to Obliteration. I had no idea such music existed. It opened me up to listening to a lot of weird, diverse stuff, even though I thought the extremity of Napalm Death's music was funny at first.
Thanks for the upload I am a jazz guitarist who recently found grindcore I have been playing for 25 yrs and can honestly tell you Scott Hull is a fucking genius not to take anything away from the other artist that grind it’s all great from a jazz point of view the timing and pure aggression is orgasmic and In my humble opinion bands like napalm death and assuck can swing just as hard as buddy rich grant green and Coltrane
Wow, so much of my youth came rushing back. Lots of the later bands I never heard of, but Repulsion, Terrorizer, early Napalm Death, Carcass... God damn... I played for a short while with a crust punk band out of Minneapolis called Destroy that was highly influenced by ND and ENT and stuff like that, but drifted away from the scene after the mid 90s. Still love listening to it but lost touch with anything after that so seeing that the scene still exists is surprising. Great doc!
The first 30 seconds of this is the most accurate, coherent and thoughtful explanation of grind core there is. Very good that it's saved for posterity.
Frigging is aswell
The fact that its in my city

Dan Lilker is imo the most metal dude to ever live. From Anthrax, to Nuclear Assault, SOD, Brutal Truth. Dude is an amazing human.
The dude fucking rules

Saw him play with Brutal Truth in a sandwich shop! Most stoned band I've ever seen. Saw many of his other bands too. He even gave my friends a joint when they spotted him tokin up at a festival

@@joebelow9700 i met him on that tour in seattle. i think crowbar was with them.
We definitely need "Slave To the Grind No.2" It is a great documentary that deserves a sequel! Tears of joy !
Hell yes!
Goregrind and subgenres have a lot more to explore!
They should do a powerviolence doc for part 2
I miss more time talking about goregrind- from carcass into cattle decapitation.
I'd watch it in a heartbeat.
Grindcore universe bigger than any fictional and real universe combined. So we need to explore it
I was having a hard time sleeping so I watched this. Now I'm having a hard time sleeping because I watched this.
This is getting my heart rate up! Late night for me.

Yes I heard S.O.B years ago n was hooked. I thank Napalm Death for covering a few of there songs on there brilliant Peel Sessions!
🤘
I don't think anyone deserves more spotlight than southeast/east Asia right now, last 20 years has been FUCKING FERAL from there. It would be awesome to catch some shows there.

Oui.

@Jonathan Williams Its hardcore punk with a strong influence from death metal
@Jonathan Williams I'd say it's more metal personally, coming from someone who listens to more hardcore stuff than metal these days
Great documentary, thanks!! Missing a band that has been playing Grindcore since 1990, ROT from Brazil
I’m glad that Siege were mentioned. Those recordings are raw unhinged power.
Brett Eberhard still op holds to this day
I remember hearing their drop dead album for he first time pure speed and anger mixed into a huge heap of awesome
I went to high school with the members of seige in Weymouth Ma, just outside of Boston. Being a drummer, I was knew and admired Rob Williams.
@@eugeneholland4645 Hell yeah, I've met Rob. Good dude. Good bands come outta Weymouthrock. Night Stick, to name another one!
If Metallica, Megadeth,Slayer and Anthrax are the big four of Thrash metal then Siege,Repulsion,Terrorizer and Napalm Death are the equivalent of that for Grindcore.
This documentary is longer than all the grindcore albums in the world combined!
Also I can't believe nobody even mentioned Scott Lewis, the original Brutal Truth drummer. Still the fastest grinding drummer of all time I'd say!

Sandoval is to death metal what Lombardo is to thrashand barker is to pop punk but Pete is the ruler by far .watch him play to Ludwig van Beethoven here on RUclips. SICK.

Jeff Walker ages for him...
lol i was thinking the same thing.. wait a minute. bill steer, lee dorrian... dorian grey??
Bill Steer and Lee Dorian come into a shop I work in regularly in central London and I can say those guys are ageing very well, esp. Steer
Jeff drinks and Bill doesnt right? Maybe thats why
Agoraphobic Nosebleed split LP with Cattlepress is one of the best pieces of music ever recorded. Both sides. This video here got me so excited. Good stuff guys. Thank you.
I had that split 12. I remember not liking agrophobic nosebleed apart from on this 12. Hordes to abolish the divine was killer. Am surprised no one ever really got into cattlepress
11:00 - Mr. Clark, I first heard 'Drop Dead' at 14 in 2003 and it was one a handful of albums that set me on the metal path. You guys deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as Napalm Death
Thank you for this!! My 55 year old arse loves this!! Such awesome memories of my youth!
Wow, thanks for sharing this... I grew up heavy into punk/hardcore punk.... Loved black, death, hardcore metal, never got to hear genocide or repulsion... Looking into buying the film and their music now ...
Thanks again
Love the docu just wish Assuck would've been mentioned. Thought they were one of the most influential Grindcore bands ever. Still think Anti-capital is one of the best Grind albums ever. Anyway, just being nit picky I guess otherwise, great docu.
The guys in Assück don't necessarily like speaking about it so that was probably why
@@MDee-db7by I here ya, still. Lol
I wasn't too impressed with a assuck but I realized it was before my time and it was groundbreaking wasn't the most catchiest most memorable of s***
@@rockyh3425 True, sure wasn't the catchiest that's probably why I liked them so much to be honest. I just remember back in the day everyone I knew that liked Grindcore loved the shit out of them. I still proudly wear an Assuck patch I got shit, damn near 30 years ago.
Assuck were amazing. They clearly has the grind sound, yet they always seemed to me as being more involved in the power violence scene. When I saw them live they played with Spazz and Born Against.
The first time I had heard of Seth Putnam was through Pantera, Phil Anselmo invented him in 1996 to do some screams on the "Great southern trend kill" album, he is noted in the credits. Phil always had his eyes on the underground.
I was present when Seth & Phil met for the first time. It was at an AxCx gig, here in New Orleans, at a place called Zeppelin's, which was run by a pair of bothers (Joey & Guy) who were friends of mine. They had all kinds of killer bands play there: Immolation, Mercyful Fate, Pungent Stench, etc. Anyway, I was outside the venue w/ my friend Andy, who was playing bass in Apostasy w/ me at the time, & I saw Seth & decided to go rap w/ him a lil bit. The three of us were talking for a bit, & then Phil walked up & started kicking the shit w/ us. I'd been knowing Phil for years, just through the music scene here & having mutual friends & such. Apostasy practiced next door to The Satanic, who Phil was drumming for around that time (check them out on my channel) & we played a sick gig together. Anyway, shortly after that meeting b/w Seth & Phil, they started hanging out regularly w/ each other & making music together & shit. I saw 'em together at a weed-smoking parade not long after that (Krewe of Dreaux). We drank a bunch of free keg-beer & got fucked up, had a blast. Joey Lacaze (RIP - my boy who played drums for EYEHATEGOD) was w/ 'em, too. Those were fucking amazing times.
Yeah, saw Putnam scream onstage with Pantera in Worcester, Massachusetts early 2000's. With Morbid Angel, Soulfly, and some opener I forgot not even worth mentioning.
@@JasonPizzolato killer lineup. I love EHG. My buddy use to drum for AC/DotH
Such a shame that this documentary basically ignored Prowler in the Yard and Pig Destroyer. That album alone was INCREDIBLY influential to the entire Grindcore scene and extreme metal in general.
Yes sir this guy right here it's like in deathcore if u ignore bands like blood runs black or through the eyes of the dead when these two bands literally laid the foundation for deathcore 1.0 well the first wave of deathcore
Didn’t you get enough of Scott Hull in this movie?
I thought I was about to watch a documentary about Skid Rows 2nd album.
me too! showing our age
Thats what I thought ig might be when I saw it in my feed. Now I just hope it has footage of the locust
Instead you got something better
John Peel needs to be given a sainthood.
@Carson Morton Saying John Peel is gay is gay
@Carson Morton Fuck, dude. You've double bluffed me into defeat...!
Thanks for putting this up for Free! Soon as I get back to work I'll buy a copy
I appreciate that!
Surprisingly GOOD documentary! Just missin Assuck and Cripple Bastards to be almost perfect retracing grind history. Chapeau!
Really good to see jan AG, dave witte, and chang in the first few mins. Agathocles and Discordance Axis were huge parts of my life starting around 1996. Only 5 mins in and very interested so far...
i don’t even click with grind like that but watched this whole thing because this doc was so well made
Appreciate the sharing of this doc! Enjoyed it. That being said... wondering why there wasn’t any mention of Assück though? Seems like a pretty substantial omission.
Karl Lykos fuck Assück?? Go fuck yourself guy
Jack you turned me on to Assuck in 93 at the Blue Chair. They played with Ima. You apologized to me for saying Assuck on my mom's answering machine. haha Hope you are well.
Thank you very much for making this available during these times! Hopefully live shows are soon back on the page.
So, what's the story behind Grindcore?
"In Flint, Michigan in 1987..."
The End
Fuck that, sounds like a documentary about Micheal Moore. That fat waste of skin doesnt deserve one.
Why because he exposes republican greedy assholes ?
Better to be a fan of him then a fan of a waste of skin who thinks injecting Lysol is good for you or the morons who follow him like blind dumb fucks
@@incredulouslamias8052 you can hate both.
@@incredulouslamias8052 Michael moore is piece of shit mouthpiece of the left. Republicans Democrats has a lot of sack of shits, hence we are stuck at home with no concerts for the foreseeable future but professional contact sports can resume.
Thank you for finding and sharing all of the bands you've posted. You've taken away the need to search for great music and have become an outlet for all of us freaks to keep up with the real deal every single fucking post.
Wonderful doc. Thanks so much for putting this together and sharing here. ⭐⭐⭐
Thank you SO much.
You are very welcome!
Hear the dudes from Nasum talk about Mieszko....so sad.
I gravitated to that band so hard. I was so sad when he died. They were seriously hitting their stride and had already made so much good music.
GGsGrave I listened to them a lot in my mid 20s. I thought most everything was dope as fuck and then helvete came out and I was just blown away. I thought inhale/exhale was going to be my favorite until helvete. I bought the grind finale album and was really pleased to hear dirtier recordings and raw sound the first time I heard it. I think that they would of continued to make the genre expand in creativity and speed. And everyone that talks about mieszko always talks about how much he loved what he did. It’s just super lame that what happened happened.
Karl Lykos no...
Great job! Having played with a lot of these dudes, this doc is super accurate on the vibe of the scene.🤘
Thank you for putting this up to watch, really enjoyed it despite being only a casual grind fan. Lots of great music to check out from watching.
I can not imagine being lucky enough to have seen Repulsion live back in the 80s
Thank you very much for this!!
This shit brought a single tear of joy to my eye. This captures grindcore perfectly and love that deche-charge are in too! Love whoever directed this.
Doug Brown absolute beauty and great film teacher
Just got into grindcore 5years ago or some. This pretty much feed my knowledge of what Grindcore is, and the history of ND, and Brutal Truth which were the first bands I got into it as well Carcass.
Absolutely love this documentary. Listen to it once a week driving to work.
Nice documentary! I'm from Johore Malaysia! 🇲🇾 Keep grindcore underground!
29:25 i didnt know adam sandler was into grind core
He looks like Maynard
😂😂😂
Agreed. Probably his weirdest live intro for "lunch lady land" of all time...
Reminded me more of Gilbert Gottfried than Sandler.
lol same
Was a drummer for Michigan's, _The Meatmen_ back then....this is cool, thought it was a doc on human gov't slavery
The meatmen are fucking amazing! Michigan Native here! Pope on a rope
Really wish you'd specify when back then you drummed for them. That you're a misogynist and a homophobe goes without saying but it would be nice to contextualize your villainy in finer detail before decrying it. I'm doing a think piece for the Guardian -"Toolin' for Justice" - on eighties hardcore and toxic masculinity and it's all sort of touch-and-go right now because I don't know what the fuck I'm talking about.
I'd like to have a frank discussion with you about the depth of your involvement in the drive-by fruiting of the Clitboys, the Nubiles-Bunsen burnings, and the assassination of John Lennon. Any feedback is much appreciated. Cheers and how dare you, - Fitchpork Ghristcau, M.F.A.
@@ten10strips85 the weenbags picked me up in college before I put the barrel in my piehole... also updated that ol fav sing-a-long, _"One down, three to go"_ , to _"2 down, 2 to go"_ want more???, Well, _Come on over to my crib_

@@ten10strips85 Bobby???
🤣The funnest! Tesco dropped by my friend’s yard sale a year or so ago.
Brutal Truth - Extreme Conditions... is the best grind album IMO.
Seeing Rotten Sound get a mention made me smile. Underrated.
I grew up in Port Huron, MI. Never heard of you guys. He wasn't lying about having your future be in the Auto industry growing up in Michigan. That's why I left. Cool vid.
I was about 1 hour in of this and I was wondering "where's Agathocles, they gotta mention it, there's no way they left it out" and soon after I saw "Belgium" and I just knew it.
Here's hoping for part 2 some time with focus to sub-genres of Grind - Noisecore/Noisegrind, Goregrind, Pornogrind, Cybergrind etc.
Noisecore live is hilarious and mega-entertaining, especially bands from my corner of the earth (East Germany) like B.R.B.
Brand new AGX LP!

@@deathbydigital4915 Hello, great doc thx for posting!
I wonder if you could tell me what is the track that play at 7:40?
Thanks a for your answer!
Relapse has the biggest count in my CD collection.
Tremendous documentary! Sad to only see mention of Assuck on a flyer. They were monumental here in the Southeast.
Assuck were amazing live. And funny.
yes! assuck is one of my favs of the genre
Man this documentary takes me back to my middleschool years (discovered Napalm Death and Carcas back then) up to my college years when I got into Nasum, Pig Destroyer and Brutal Truth (right before their first break up). The 90s were a special time. Loved Relapse Records I bought releases from them every pay day from 98-2002. Was one of my favorite labels.
I'm not even into grindcore much and I've watched this three times.
Neither do I but this documentary is so well done that we can sort of catch the vibe of it and get mesmerized
13:55 Bill Steer looks like the perfect combination of Jerry Cantrell and Steve Buscemi
You're right! That's too funny!
Good call.
🤣
Spot on
Cannot unsee now!! Both of those dudes are fucking killer at what they do. Fucking badasses.
This is a great documentary. Being someone that comes from the more 'punk' side of things I like that they don't shy away from the connections grind and punk have.
im a deathmetal guy never really bothered about punk but always loved classic grind especially goregrind too and it was great they touched on the subgenres and gave me more understanding of the punkside
This was pretty good. I actually sat through the whole thing.
Breath taking review from the peanut gallery
James Mccarron LOL.
Same
Trinidad need sum grind
I'm so glad they included agathocles and the whole mincecore subgenre. Hail the the gods of mincecore.
Literally just started my first grindcore band after watching this for the 4th time
Fun fact, one of the photos used to introduce Birmingham, England is in fact from Birmingham, Alabama (the one with sloss on the water tower)
sounds like a joke, but probably unintentional.
Hope that's trOO
i've been listening to Napalm Death since 1990 and Barney is still growling on!!
love all the other early 90s grindcore too during my teenage tape-trading days shuffling trough my highschool hallways with headphones on from my Sony walkman listening to lots of death metal, grindcore and black metal....fuck it was good being young back then!!!!
I can remember being a Smiths/Cure fan in 89 and being given a copy of From Enslavement to Obliteration. I had no idea such music existed. It opened me up to listening to a lot of weird, diverse stuff, even though I thought the extremity of Napalm Death's music was funny at first.
There last album is still very very heavy!
Thanks for the upload I am a jazz guitarist who recently found grindcore I have been playing for 25 yrs and can honestly tell you Scott Hull is a fucking genius not to take anything away from the other artist that grind it’s all great from a jazz point of view the timing and pure aggression is orgasmic and In my humble opinion bands like napalm death and assuck can swing just as hard as buddy rich grant green and Coltrane
Check out Canderia
Exit 13
Listen to agoraphobic nosebleed - frozen corpse stuffed with dope album for scott hull
Naked city, last exit... Jazzy stuff rom 90's
Asafoetida Jones really enjoyed last exit thanks for recommendation that band was like super progressive avant- garde jazz
One of my favorite music documentaries I’ve ever seen
Wow, so much of my youth came rushing back. Lots of the later bands I never heard of, but Repulsion, Terrorizer, early Napalm Death, Carcass... God damn... I played for a short while with a crust punk band out of Minneapolis called Destroy that was highly influenced by ND and ENT and stuff like that, but drifted away from the scene after the mid 90s. Still love listening to it but lost touch with anything after that so seeing that the scene still exists is surprising. Great doc!
Destroy fucking RULED!
ruclips.net/video/Y_MMn61uAvE/видео.html this destroy?
I love Destroy!!
dude thats awesome bro destroy is sick as fuck
