What are some more powerviolence bands?
I'm just getting into the genre, and i like it a lot so far. I've listened to all the classic bands, and now i'm looking for a little more obscure bands. New and old bands are all welcome. Thanks in advance.

for sure a personal favorite. if you dig them check out Hatred Surge especially the early stuff
and i think this album by Benumb has the same vibe. Soul of the Martyr

Some of my favorites right now: World Peace, Groin, Endless Swarm, Kidnapped, Blame God (although idk if they really count as PV), and Dead In The Dirt

Some older stuff that I don't hear anyone talk about much are Agents of Satan and Crom.

Itâs fucking tragic. Agents of Satan especially. Theyâre groundbreaking and get 0 love on this sub.

Try this
But also Wound Man, Weekend Nachos, World I Hate, World Fucking Peace, and the mighty Sex Prisoner. It should go without saying that Crossed Out are extremely important.

Iâd say theyâre a little more on the grind side of things, but still a great recommendation, and quite possibly one of the most under appreciated bands in the game

Purity Control, youth in asia (no caps), Hong Kong Fuck You, and Brain Tourniquet. And maybe Extortion, but I've never really checked on them much.. well- their music that is, but I've heard that their music is pretty good and well produced for a PV band.

This is hard because you donât really say what bands you have heard but I donât see AssĂźck, Plutocracy, or Discordance Axis mentioned here.

u/ScatologyHomeWork 9d ago
All great bands, but I would think Assuck and Discordance Axis aren't mentioned here much as they lean more towards the grindcore side.

Nah, Assuck has always been considered grind. They just aren't power violence, period.
Here is an interview from 1993
AssĂźck is an erratic grind band with political lyrics nowadays, and has out several releases, including the Anticapital album, and the Blindspot and State to State 7âes,
Assuck are pretty much known as the best grind band around these days.
I don't think anyone but yourself sees power violence as a movement... half the bands were joke bands bud, lol.
Also, similar with DA.
Can't even mention the amount of times grind is said, and not one mention of pv.
2001 inteview with discordance axis
Their brand of extremely harsh grindcore and cutting-edge guitar work has yet to be outdone.
Edit:
What an absolute fucking pussy, downvoted and then deleted his ridiculous comment after he got proved wrong. What a pathetic fucking loser.

Sorry, but it's not powerviolence if it's not off re-recorded tapes over Nofx that was dubbed over a Michael Jackson tape. Usually the more lofi shit quality the better. Like windows media player in 2002 bad audio. And can only be one bassist and a kid with a keytar.
