Sludgy, nasty, misanthropic urban decay punk/rock/scum/noise/metal. Music that slobbers, carries a switchblade, and is filled with often aimless nihilism, malignant rage, and funereal grief in equal measures. Tempo is usually anywhere from slowed-to-a-crawl to mid-paced. It has been said that the following bands have perpetrated some pretty damn good dirgecore: Drugs of Faith, Khanate, Meat Shits, His Hero is Gone, Napalm Death, Godflesh, Pig Destroyer, Feederz, Ministry, Robert Trimbole's Hat, Hellhammer, Gallhammer, Eddie and the Subtitles, Saw Throat, Cathedral, Morbid Cunt Bondage, Ahab, Teeth of Lions Rule the Divine, Bedpanorama, Bobby Soxx, Agoraphobic Nosebleed, Thrones, Sore Throat, Swans, Asbestosdeath, Pissed Jeans, Buzzov*en, Noothgrush, Cyanimid, Melvins, Drunks With Guns, Killdozer, Eyehategod, Grief, F.U.'s.
