And now, gentle reader, if you will recall, Cro-Magnon man was being abducted from his cave and forced to spend a day looking at paintings. As a result, he became confused and pissed off, grabbing paintings and smashing them over the heads of students and lecturers. Hear him Roar at 0:12? No way are you going to hippylise this prehistoric hunter.
I love Napalm Death. They formed in England back in 1981 and became pioneers of grindcore, a fusion of heavy metal and punk. Abrasive distorted guitars, high-speed tempo, and growling vocals are the trademarks of this sound. The thing I most appreciate about Napalm Death is their humanist and socialist political views. I particularly admire lead singer/growler Barney Greenway. He is sensitive, a progressive thinker, a great reader, vegan, a supporter of animal rights, and anti-Trump.
Plague Rages is from their classic mid 90s album Fear, Emptiness, Despair. It's a great wall of noise from the depths of the underworld. There are lyrics, if anyone's interested. It's not for the KINK crowd sipping their Riesling while zoning out to Bruce Hornsby, that's for sure.
