Seinfeld and metal - two of our favourite things together at last! Grindfeld, the new band featuring members from Rivers Of Nihil, Fallujah and Wretched, is a super heavy grind/death metal project centered around the hit TV sitcom that ran from 1989-1998.
The band have announced their debut EP called 5 Songs About Nothing, with the first track 'The Contest' available to stream below (a reference to the classic episode where the characters place bets to see who can go the longest without jerking off), along with the band's press statement on the whole project.
After what seems like a lifetime of repeat viewings, re-runs and falling asleep to the same laugh track over and over again, Ex and current members of Wretched, Alterbeast, The Kennedy Veil and Rivers of Nihil decided there was more to this simple show about “Nothing”.
Making light of the mundane drudgery of average daily life is simply a thin veil laid over the nihilistic truths put forth by Larry David and Jerry Seinfeld during the quintessential time in our collective generations upbringing.
Born out of a mutual love of Death Metal, comical observations, coffee and Hardcore, Grindfeld is a project built on the existential dread hidden just under the surface of daily life.
For fans of: Death Metal, Coffee, Pirate Shirts, Hardcore, Grindcore, Wasting your life pouring over minutia of every single daily event, stand up comedy.
Not for fans of: Kenny Bania, Nazis.
Each song is a synopsis of an episode, highlighting sitcom televisions’ zenith of quality.
