A style of music developed from 80s hardcore. Pioneered by such bands as Napalm Death, and Carcass among others.
The music is characterized with very fast guirar riffs, and even faster drums, together with incomprehensible vocals (Some bands use high pitched screaming, some use low pitched growling).
Contrary to popular belief, Grindcore IS NOT METAL. Some bands are, if they are mixing in elements of Death, Black, or other forms of metal, but Grindcore itself is not metal, since it evolved from punk music, and not any style of metal.

A sandwich prepared by old men who can't find work in other places because they got a bad referral due to the fact that they burned down their cubicle on the last day of work, and are forced to work at a sandwich shop, mostly purchased by emo folk.

A genre of music supposedly combining the hardcore punk genre and the thrash metal genre. In actual fact it features Muggy, downtuned guitars, over-distorted muggy bass and insane drummers. The vocals sound alot like drunk cavmen attempting kareoke. The shortest song in the world ('You Suffer', by Napalm Death), coming in at just 1.3 seconds is in the genre of Grindcore. Often listened to by the 'toughnut' kids.
Paul: Dude...what the fuck is this music on your iPod?
Ben: Oh, thats some shit caleld 'grindcore' that my brother found out about.
Paul: It's the worst msuic i have ever heard!
Ben: Yeah, James said it sounded like drunken cavenmen attempting kareoke.
