NAPALM DEATH

Scum CD

Artist:	NAPALM DEATH
Label:	Earache

Description

Release Year: 1987
Artist Origin: ENG
Style: fundamental devastating extreme rebellious grindcore

the pioneering, milestone record of grindcore as a subgenre of extreme and violent music takes hardcore punk roots, shifting focus to ungodly speed, momentous expression and brevity, chainsaw guitar sound and croaked, completely unintelligible vocals, deliberately breaking the traditional song structure, relying on short bursts of aggression, choppy rhythm, noisy textures, and complete rejection of melody; since early line-up was quite unstable, this disc consists of two recording sessions with different musicians, featuring early appearance by Lee Dorian [Cathedral] on insanely high vocals, as well as Justin Broadrick [Godflesh] and Bill Steer [Carcass] on guitars, while cover artwork was accomplished by none other but Jeff Walker [Carcass]; recent British edition comes with authentic design
