Le me be more precise - judging from about five YouTube videos, I'd say that most of
Napalm Death's output ignores most of music's rules. It's speed for speed's sake, nothing but growls from the singer, no melody, very little rhythmic variation - sorry, but to my ears, that's pure noise.
Which one of my previous posts are you referring to? I never posted any Grindcore or Death Metal ****.

As for Mick Harris: he is mediocre, yes. I'm a drummer myself (with average skills, apart from my single bassdrum techniques, which are pretty good), so I'm particularly interested in a band's drummer. And yes - Vinnie Paul's a lot better than Mick Harris. Vinnie is a real groovemaster, who has good arm and double bass techniques AND a lot of feel for the songs he plays. Harris' style is pretty simple - some fast tom rolls, very many blast beats, and even faster bass drum playing. Well, if you're into speedy stuff like that, you may think he's the better drummer. However, he isn't. He may be persistent, well-trained, and fast - but he's got no feel at all. He sounds like a machine.
Greetings!
PS: * No offence, wes and mr420! I don't want to pick on you. Considering that I love
Mozart and
Beethoven, it is impossible for me to accept Napalm Death as music.
