Wikipedia, July 15, 2014 (Grindcore: an extreme genre of music; originated in the early- to mid-1980s; draws inspiration from some of the most abrasive-sounding music genres -- including thrash metal, industrial music, noise music and the more extreme varieties of hardcore punk, such as crust punk; characterized by a noise-filled sound that uses heavily distorted, down-tuned guitars, grinding overdriven bass, high speed tempo, blast beats, and vocals which consist of growls and high-pitched shrieks)
