Best Grindcore Bands
Hatred, frustration, political intolerance, and medical terminology are what Grindcore is all about.
Most intense live band I've ever seen!
Absolutely the best no contest.
Best grindcore band ever...
Angry but melodic

Grindcore at its best. The angry vocals, Steer's brilliance on guitar. Why on earth is carcass so underrated?
Carcass much better then napalm. Especially when they lost steer and he went to carcass.
Listen to Reek of Putrefaction and you will know what is the definition of Grindcore.
Snort the corpse...
Get high on the rot...
Orgasmic rush...
Turns your brains to pus...

This band is great for their genre, but one thing I noticed is on their Prowler in the Yard album the song Starbelly that has parts that sound a lot like the Melvin's song Boris (which was made way before starbelly). You might think I'm being unjust since the Melvins and Pig Destroyer sound nothing alike, but if you listen to the middle of the song starbelly and then listen to boris then you'll notice that they sound almost exactly alike. I'm beginning to wonder if Pig Destroyer stole the part from boris (if they did, that would be bad because bands should be original and not rip off other artists. If they did it but asked first, then it would be okay. If they didn't, then it wouldn't matter.)
This is the first grindcore band I really got into. Prowler in The Yard is a superb album and the others do not disappoint. Any grindcore fan should look into this bands work. Also Brutal Truth should be ranked higher. At least in the top 10.
Prowler In The Yard is a record that proved Grindcore as a genre which can tell a twisted, engaging story while still maintaining musical brutality and unrelenting energy.
My #2. They are insanely good. Most people who like this band aren't huge fans of grind

One of the best out there. There vocalist Travis Ryan can do pretty much anything and they have amazing technical instrumentalists.
I'm a huge Cattle Decapitation fan, but they aren't grindcore. They are Deathgrind, (yes there is a difference) But most people consider them to be just Death Metal
Cattle Decapitation is most certainly one of my favorites.
Cattle decapitation are just fantastic!

Aggression, speed, rage, heaviness that what is Grindcore and that is all about Terrorizer. World Downfall is the greatest Grindcore record ever made.
Should be at the runner-up just below Napalm Death.

Amazing band. Every grind fan should listen to their self-titled debut and Dissimulate!
Such a funny band but very crazy and intense.


Gold from texas


One of the underrated ones. These masked Mexican musicians really know how to rock
They can bring great riffs, great bass guitar, great solos, great voice an still being one of the heavyes bands of all time. Albums like "Cursed" and EPs like "Napalm", or "Consume to Contaminate" are some of the best grindcore works of all time.
Rotten Sound should at least be in the top ten.

Anal C is the all time heaviest band ever. There 5643 song ep cannot be topped. Absolute pure noise. Beautiful in every aspect.
Way better than napalm death, these guys have pure talent!
For me, it's AxCx and Napalm Death. The mass lunacy and carnage of Naplam Death and the non-conformist, actually quite funny song titles of AC is great

I love them. They're so fast paced that they fired their drummer when he couldn't keep up. So they replaced him with a drum machine

Best band that plays Grindcore.

Wow why are these guys not higher on the list? One of the best.
Arguably they're deathgrind, but if we're going to include deathgrind into grindcore, these guys are EASILY top 5 material. Like Cattle Decapitation, Cephalic Carnage has a surprising and creative take on the deathgrind formula. Where Cattle Decapitation experiments more with vocal techniques, Cephalic Carnage has a great and variative vocalist as well (though slightly less creative as Cattle Decapitation's Travis Ryan) but experiments more with interjecting ambient sounds from jazz, surf rock and flamenco or at set times using jazz fusion licks into their unique and trippy brand of deathgrind without ever seeming ridiculous. These unique elements, combined with the fact that they manage to stay as brutal as grind gets throughout, makes them far more interesting than straightforward peers such as Terrorizer, The Berzerker, Nasum or Anal C***.
Should be top 5: 1) Napalm Death 2) Carcass 3) Cattle Decapitation 4) Pig Destroyer 5) Cephalic Carnage. And while Carcass is an ...more

Extreme conditions rules! Enough said.
Best American grindcore bend.

Love these guys. Put them in the top 5
Should be number 1
Best grind ever.

The greatest Modern Grindcore band ever and one of the greatest Modern Metal bands.
Sick fast and loud
They are awesome and their music style is also very innovative... I want them to see at least at no. 5.
By the way Brutal Truth also should be ranked higher.
Awesome band, misery index is their best releases ever...by the way why is Sayyadina was not voted?

They're awesome! The cover of their album "carnivorous erection" is the the gorest ever.
