Steer's a great guitarist, but Gurn combines technical and stoner riffing in a way that no one before him really had, and few after him have improved upon.<br /><br /><b>The Innovators</b><br />Scott Hull, no question. I'd give him it for his work with Pig Destroyer alone, but the scope of and variations in his work make his supremacy in this bout undeniable.<br /><br /><b>The Punks</b><br />I'll give it to Rasyid here just because I like Wormrot more.<br /><br /><b>The Technicians</b><br />Burke and Arp both favor chaotic, hyper-technical styles, but Burke manages to weave his playing into riffier, neater songs structures while Arp gets too caught up in sonic abstraction to worry about listenability.DesiccatedVeinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16783531567772825094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423175970439780764.post-8098571932001037722012-02-22T12:15:05.422-05:002012-02-22T12:15:05.422-05:00Steer, easy

But Brutal Truth's had a better run and there's plenty of good riffs to be found, especially throughout Extreme Conditions<br />Innovators: <b>Hull</b><br />Prowler in the Yard is one of grindcore's finest moments and was an essential part to my high school listening. Without a doubt, Hull deserves this more as he's found a beautifully terrible way to match the lyrics and imagery of PxDx.<br /><br />Punks: <b>Heritage</b><br />Assuck's one of the greatest grind bands for a reason, Wormrot's a great new act, but not doing too much new. I'd rather have Heritage no questions ask.

Similar for Takafumi Matsubara, the Burke and Arp vote is just a formality.<br /><br />I'd like to say that there's an even match between Johnson and Hull but in my heart I know Hull will win. And he'll win against Papirmollen as well.<br /><br />Gurn/Steer/Pintado is the most puzzling to me. I'd like to think Steer will beat both Gurn and Pintado, but I'm not sure.

But you can't put it up against F.E.T.O. and Symphonies of Sickness.<br /><br />Don't make me choose between Hull and Johnson. It's way too hard. I think Scott Hull may have written every riff possible in grindcore and a few other genres... But Johnson is innovative in his own way, adding his own signature rock 'n' roll swing and bounce. They're both consistently good. Fuck it, I choose Johnson. This is why: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUFP5f9iO0g<br /><br />Enemy Soil's side of that split is amazing, and way better than the ANb side.<br /><br />Heritage.<br /><br />Burke's record is really all over the place, but I like him more than I dislike him.Vegashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17260697934662004663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423175970439780764.post-45870864243823226442012-02-20T12:45:27.839-05:002012-02-20T12:45:27.839-05:00Old Gaurd: Steer, carcass was the first grind band...Old Gaurd: Steer, carcass was the first grind band i ever got into and i still consider them one of my favorites<br /><br />Innovators: Hull, i love both of these guys, but i'm not a huge fan of drugs of faith, whereas anything hull has played on is amazing.<br /><br />Punks: Wormrot rights catchy as balls riffs with amazing songwriting.
