In early 2009 I wrote a list of "recommended" grind/hardcore/etc releases for the third issue of Vomitose zine, which never ended up coming out, so I thought I'd post it cause there are some possibly-overlooked fuggin classics here for sure!

Nice vinyl reissue of classic insane-o drum machine grind.
ATAVIST - II: Ruined CD (UK) – Profound Lore

Best drum machine goregrind around/Filthy downtuned gore.
CREAMFACE / MISOGYNIST PUSSYSLASHER split CD (Finland/Finland) – Lolita Slavinder Records
Crude, sleazy, depraved porngrind to make your skin crawl.
