American Grindcore

American grindcore is a frenetic and intensely aggressive subgenre of extreme metal, characterized by its blistering speed, dissonant riffs, and a blend of growled or screamed vocals often conveying socio-political messages. It incorporates elements of hardcore punk, thrash metal, and industrial noise, resulting in a sound that is deliberately raw and chaotic. The genre's roots trace back to the late 1980s and early 1990s, with bands pushing the boundaries of musical extremity. Noted for their use of blast beats and micro-songs that can be shockingly short, American grindcore acts, such as Pig Destroyer and Cattle Decapitation, often aim for a visceral impact, both audibly and thematically, delving into the dark recesses of the human condition through their relentless sonic assault.
