a musical genre made popular by music television and the consumer habits of brainless middle schoolers in girl pants with pocketfuls of someone else's money, grind-core requires little if any musical talent. most grindcore bands gain a following by dressing up silly and sitting around at coffee bars and headshops talking about how awesome their band is like they aren't in it (well, that's what i did anyway)
OMG HAVE YOU HEARD!?!? STABYOURMOMxCORE is gonna be at Natura tonight! they're the best grindcore band EVER! at least that what this one guy said...stop trying to cut yourself with that butterknife and let's roll! we need to spend lots of money because we're young and upset and nobody in the world has ever, ever felt like we have!

a fast form of hardcore, usually more chaotic and spaztic.

comes from punk and metal, as the origanl branches of genre.

some grind bands use the high pithced screams, followed by the gutterrolls(pig screams).

some modern day grind includes:
me and him call it us
destroyer destroyer
see you next tuesday
robinson
o' captain! my captain!
heavy heavy low low

grindcore usually doesn't have time signatures or often it doesn't use theory. but it is still very complicated in the notes and chords they do use.

grind bands usually consist of:
1 to 2 guitarist
1 bassist
1 to 2 singers
1 drummer.

a minimal grind band, that i have seen, consisted of:
a guitarist and a drummer.
both screaming.
have you seen how fast the fingers are of that guitarist in the grindcore band!?!?!
