Isn't grindcore the suckiest genre ever?

 

[Under a Stone]

You could say that but then everyone's got their own different opinions

 

[no country for old wainds]

But then, this is a message board. For opinions. I can't be bothered to put 'IMO IMO!!11' after every post.

grindcore does suck

There are some great albums in that list

Grind is better than a lot of the other more popular types of metal. For example, all that melody infested Swedish metal blows these days.

 

[duckattack]

They certainly left a lot of relevant bands out.

 

[None_So_Vile]

Grindcore rocks. Especially bands like Nasum, Cephalic Carnage, Brutal Truth, Napalm Death, Pig Destroyer, Agoraphobic Nosebleed, Carcass (shutup), The Berzerker, S.O.D etc...

I was trying to be unbiased, but that made absolutely no sense at all.

That made a lot of sense. I am allergic against Swedish "metal" too.

There was a time when I thought so too, but it isn't. I went to a Napalm Death concert in Banska Bystrica, Slovakia, last month together with a person who doesn't listen to any metal at all and he liked the music and it's energy very much.

REPULSION!!!

 

[Necro Joe]

Repulsion, Carcass, Napalm death, Nasum, Brutal truth, Exit-13 and Pig Destroyer are the only grind bands I like. But like exactly zero gothic metal bands so I guess you could say that is the suckiest sub-genre ever (if it even is one). Oh and grind isn't metal.

 

[Life Sucks]

The suckiest subgenre is nu-metal. As for grindcore, I like some of it. For some reason I can't really get into early Napalm Death though.

Are you not a fan of melodic music in general, or just displeased with the stagnation in the Swedish melodeath scene as of late?

its probably cos after listening to bands like dillinger escape plan and cryptopsy then wrapping your lug holes round early napalm!
