Godfathers of grindcore (that's really really fast shouty death metal, more or less), formed by a couple of kids in 1981 and featuring, at one time or another, such legends of Brit metal as Justin Broadrick (Godflesh), Lee Dorrian (Cathedral) and Bill Steer (Carcass). The current line-up consists of Barney Greenway (vocals), Mitch Harris (guitar), Jesse Pintado (guitar), Shane Embury (bass) and Danny Herrera (drums). Age hasn't mellowed them.
