Well, lve been out of the scene for a while now but back in the day
l would have said the first 2 Carcass records are essential, along with
Brutal Truth' debut, the first couple of LP's and first EP of Napalm Death, Terrorizer' first, ENT' , Agothocles, Soar Throat, Cripple Bastards, Righteous Pigs, Bolt Thrower, Repulsion, Defecation, Disharmonic Orchestra
Later l got into Gut, Impetigo, Exit-13, Nasum, Vaginal Carnage, Beanflipper, Undinism, Assuck, The Kill, Fuck...im dead, Hemdale, Exhumed..
no doubt someone will say, well, that band are not exactly grind or that band is this core or this core or whatever...
l dont really care...all these bands are grind to me
l have not heard a lot of the bands mentioned in this thread before, and will enjoy looking up some names l may have heard of but not yet listened to.
