Grindcore is what happens when hardcore punks start listening to thrash and decide to slam both together and go faster. It’s extreme, uncompromising and sometimes overwhelming. Pig Destroyer are all of these things and more. Their third album ‘Terrifyer’ is often heralded as a landmark metal album.

We also touch upon J.R Hayes’ brilliant lyrics and Scott Hull’s exceptional playing. Is this their best album? Vote below.
