Let's back up a bit - It's about 15 years ago I guess and myself and my buddy Matt are hanging out almost every night drinking beers in his attic listening to records and we decide it's time to get something recorded. We start off as the band "Sandpaper" demoing a few tracks of sort of post-punk-sludgy stuff before deciding to change what we were doing totally and play crusty grindcore in the form of the band Angelfuck. I played the drums and did some vocals while Matt played the guitar and did the other vocals. I recorded the bass afterwards and bish-bash-bosh, demo! Called "Neurosporasapien - Ways Of The Rotting Kind" (listen to Carcass much?)
We made a demo and started trading and sending it around, made a few contacts, got on a few comps and then I ended up playing in Mr.Zippy that took my time away from Angelfuck.
It wasn't until around two years later we got together again to do another one. "Dead Devil Doll" that was leaned more towards death metal and blasts but still crusty as hell.
Matt carried on after I moved to Sweden and recorded "Maggot Nation" himself and occasionally hired in additional musicians for "Mortuary Wedding" (not a song over 30 seconds), "Country Of The Free" and "Expendable", with myself popping back to help out on "Country Of The Blind".
So anyway - Dark Meadow has now released a 46-song collection featuring everything called "Corpse Grinding Sewer Metal".
Metal Hammer magazine described Angelfuck as: "As near to the sound of a power plant exploding as music could ever get. Unambiguously styled upon early Carcass, Napalm Death and Discharge, we wouldn't be surprised to see these guys' smiling faces staring at us from an article about church burning/dismemberment/granny desecration. Brutally inaudible metal."
Dark Meadow describe Angelfuck as: Bass driven Lo-Fi that many bands needed to lose to enjoy higher success. Really roars in various ways with aggressive guitars, noise and heavy bass. Loud enough to break the speakers.
