Assück Biography


They were one of the most important North American grindcore bands and still have a strong cult following. Sometimes described as the best example of "hardcore kids playing death metal," and they sound the part rather well, with very technical drumming, tuned-down guitars and gruff vocals. There are no guitar solos, unlike most death metal, and more poetic and existential, vaguely-political lyrics, delivered in a unique and carefully-measured rhythm like grind forefathers Napalm Death.

"Misery Index" is a term meaning the sum of national unemployment and inflation rates, used unofficially to assess a nation's economic health. Also, the band Misery Index (band) named themselves after their 2nd album and they sound pretty much close to Assuck.
