Grindbashers

History

Quitting Iniuria, Herrie (bass, voice) decided to take up the original LD'50 approach on music: Old school grindcore (in the vein of bands such as: Agathocles, (old) Napalm Death, Terrorizer, Rot, Exulceration). He asked Micha (drummer of Carnal Leftovers) to play on drums and Mathieu (guitarist of Departure) to play lead guitar and they agreed to participate in Herrie's quest for old school grindcore.

The first rehearsals took place on 28th February 2008. The band recorded their first demo in April 2008, titled 'Irreversible...'.

Grindbashers recorded 'Songs of Suicide, Words of Death!' mini-CD at Fredde's Dirty Bird studio, which was released by Herrie Records Inc. in October 2008.

In February 2009 was time for Agathocles' 'Arbeit Macht Krank!'/ Grindbashers' 'Mine Own Redeemer!' split-CD (including an instrumental track , written and composed by A.J. van Drenth of Beyond Belief). Recorded at Dirty Bird studio and released by Herrie Records Inc.

In May Micha decided to quit playing in Grindbashers and at the moment Maarten is now (temperoraly) playing drums.

Grindbasher's fourth release is a split-CD with Obtuse (Dutch grindcore band). It will be released end of October / beginning of November 2009 through Herrie Records Inc.
