Undisputedly the founding fathers of grind core, Napalm Death have moved on to mold and define the genre, paving the path for droves of acts to come. Upon its' initial release in 1987, Scum offered a fresh, unique mix of motivated punk, hardcore and death metal – fusing rarely used "blast" beats with political undertones and driving intensity. Displaying an aural rawness not seen by many other bands, Scum set the precedent for quality grind core to come and revolutionized extreme music for generations to come. Pressed from the original master tapes, this vinyl release has been specifically recreated using FDR - Full Dynamic Range - mastering allowing the music's nuances to shine through and give this classic album a more ferocious and dynamic sound, enabling the listener to immerse in the full audio heaviness like never before.
