Grindcore

As far as i concern, Grindcore is a subgenres of Hardcore punk. To be exact (i think) grindcore is influenced by thrash metal, and also hardcore and punk, taking its name from the "grinding" sound made by the atonal riffs 'grinding' into one another. Grindcore music always known as a blast beat and the songs often lasting no more than two minutes... Some of songs are lasting for 30 seconds. What i mean for blast beat is a drum beat characteristics. The beat of snare is like a "tak tak tak tak tak tak tak" but with fast beat i mean (LOL!) and followed by crash/hi hat and sometimes with double kick. Ok la... to make it short,the blast-beat generally comprises a repeated and very fast tempo. But nowadays, grindcore is blend with the experimental sounds & a little bit of jazzy.

As for guitar tuning, generally extremely fast playing, tremolo picked riffs, dropped tunings. No polyphonics, basically no connection with the drummer or singer. No solos. No complexity, etc etc etc. Basically anything but creative. Oh... one more thing,normally it's no repeated riff. For the lyrics, it is basically or normally from a range themes social to political issues. Usually for vocal styles, it is consists of growl and high-pitched screams that sounds like an eagle or fledge cried for food. LOL...

To be short for all of this, Grindcore is characterized by heavily distorted, down-tuned guitars, blastbeats, hardcore punk and crossover thrash influenced riffing, short songs, and a vocal style consisting of growls and higher-pitched vocals. You no need to read all of this crap. LOL!

P/S: Correct me if I'm wrong OK. For more info, you can use "Pakcik Google". All info that u need is in your fingertips.
