Alright, welcome to the inaugural post of the House Of Grindcore blog. As the title suggests, this is another online grind blog subject to arbitrary updates and an extremely opinionated and specific choices about the genre. Mainly started due to the fact that so many of the other, more superior Grindcore blogs that I subscribe to are becoming dormant and inactive, this blog is not going to be a ground breaking endeavor by any means. When I first started getting heavy into Grindcore, finding decent bands was hard to come by. I initially relied on these blogs to help me connect the dots to bands I wanted to hear and learn more about the bands that I did know. I'm starting this blog for the little grind boys and girls out there who might find themselves in the same shoes I was in. Now, having said that, I'm not a writer and I have no journalistic training. Unlike some of my other favorite bloggers, at this point, I don't receive material from bands or labels for review. I am not privy to all the bands and new releases out there. Posts will be on the releases as they come my way and are added to my collection or from albums already within my collection. Reviews and articles will most likely be limited to Grindcore, Death Grind, Grind Violence, Power Violence, Fastcore etc. Maybe some delves into Hardcore or whatever. I will try to keep posts short and to the point. Something you can scroll through fairly quickly and inconspicuously at work. I'll try to keep the poetic flurries and life story analogies to a minimum. Hopefully you can figure out if a band is for you or not without having to weed through page after page. Remember, the best way to figure out if a band is right for you is to listen to them. But sometimes that's easier said than done. Especially if you don't even know if said band even exists. And I undestand that with all the other, better blogs out there (Grind and Punishment, Operation Grindcore, Grind To Death, etc.) and with Facebook and Bandcamp that this blog is beyond redundant, but hey, fuck it.
