Sweden has long been recognized for its vibrant grindcore scene, featuring influential bands such as Gadget, Regurgitate, Afgrund, Retaliation, and the iconic Nasum at the forefront. Unfortunately, many of these groups have disbanded, resulting in a significant void within the genre. Enter BRAINWASHER and their debut album "Vicious Circles", who have made a striking entrance into the scene, capturing the attention of eager grindcore enthusiasts. Their remarkable energy is palpable both on their album and during live performances. It has been years since a grindcore band has made such an impact in Sweden. BRAINWASHER pays tribute to the pioneers of the genre, incorporating elements reminiscent of Napalm Death, Terrorizer, Nasum, and Repulsion throughout their work. They are not here to forge friendships; rather, they aim to herald the impending demise of humanity. Prepare yourselves, for they are arriving with formidable force.
