This site was established for the purpose of building a database of selected sound sources for learning the aesthetics of Grindcore: “Fast, Furious, and Short”. The database is filtered according to the following criteria: “The average length of the recorded songs must be under 3 minutes”. In addition to pure Grindcore, we also included PowerViolence and Fastcore,etc. which meet the above requirements.

The categories are classified according to “The year of the first release” and “The position of the source, such as album or demo,” with songs of special note indicated in red. Wherever possible, album covers were linked to Bandcamp for listening and physical/digital data purchase.

Finally, I have listed my personal masterpieces as “MAGNUM OPUS”. This selection is based on my perspective as a composer/string player, not on historical value or recognition.
