Various - Grind Madness At The BBC

Superb collection of Peel Sessions from bands that flew out of the Earache stable. When Earache turned up in the mid 80s, they were an absolute revelation, introducing a slew of underground UK hardcore bands to these ears! These sessions capture the main early players at their best. Later termed as grindcore...it was always punk as fuck to me.

Earache are still out there bursting eardrums at will...if this floats yer boat, check them out here
