Napalm Death

This revolutionary, face-melting 28-track statement defined a genre (grindcore) and spread the almighty blastbeat like wildfire across the globe. Scum was created for the tape-trading underground, and its rough, muddy production and raw, unbridled aggression features both viscerally structured tunes like "Instinct of Survival" and "Siege of Power," and insane less-than-40-second clips of uber-fast beats like "Point of No Return," "Negative Approach" and, of course, the two-second-long brilliance of "You Suffer." If you want to hear history in the making, turn this record up loud!
