(think of your favorite grind bands...)[views:13967][posts:75]_________________________________ [Jan 4,2008 4:13pm - niflheim ""] Soilent Green do slide riffs once in a while but not enough to label them a grind band. They can get pretty technical with their time changes. Grind is defintiely rooted in punk, just sped up and more pissed off. I forget which member of Soilent Green was in Mule Skinner, but their album "Abuse" is violent grind/death |

| _________________________________ [Jan 4,2008 4:22pm - niflheim ""] Uh, I'm not talking about sliding in that sense haha. But the simplistic riffing style of punk, only sped up. Power chords just going from one part of the fretboard to the next. I'm not a guitarist so I'm not going to claim that I can better describe this, but take your typical punk riff, speed it up, and thats a grind riff. So your definition of a grind riff would be what? |
| _________________________________ [Jan 4,2008 4:23pm - niflheim ""] Soilent Green definitely have grind parts but theyre not grind purists. Their music contain elements of death metal, southern metal, as well. Thus making them more of a hybrid style not soley "grindcore" |
| _____________________________ [Jan 4,2008 4:28pm - Lamp ""] I've never heard the term "slide riff" either and I've been playing guitar for six years, you're going to have to explain where you pulled that one from. |
| _________________________________ [Jan 4,2008 4:30pm - cav nli ""] not one band mentioned on this whole thread is "real" grind, discuss.... |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 4,2008 4:31pm - Mike_Giallo ""] I thought a "slide riff" involves sliding. We call those football riffs. |
| _________________________________ [Jan 4,2008 4:34pm - niflheim ""] Just because you never heard the term doesn't mean it hasn't been applied to describe it before. It's like when most people say they dont know what a skank beat is, so its called either a "down beat" or "thrash beat" (kick - snare - kick - snare). It's simple to grasp... Once again, have you heard punk before? They just take their hands, go back and forth on the fretboard rapidly. Go really fast and it almost creates a blur. Like the hand is sliding up and down the freboard. Ever heard Napalm Death's From Enslavement To Obliteration? It's the definitive grindcore album. What are those riffs except punk riffs on speed? I'm not saying "slide riffing" is the technical term for whatever it would be, just a way of describing it, the way it looks when played. |
| _____________________________ [Jan 4,2008 4:43pm - Lamp ""] I know what you're talking about now, I just didn't know it had a specific term. I was basically just asking where you heard it. |
| _________________________________ [Jan 4,2008 4:47pm - niflheim ""] A friend of mine who is a grind connoseuir introduced me to that term about 11 years ago. It's not the specific term; you could probably come up with other terms to describe the style. That one just happened to stick. Not being a guitarist, I couldn't really describe it any other way. |
