Combatwoundedveteran - Discography (1996-2003)
Combatwoundedveteran was a grindcore/emo-violence band from Tampa, Florida who were active throughout the latter half of the 90s and into the early 2000s. They shared members with the prolific Reversal Of Man. They only ever released one full album, but had various splits which were later released on a compilation.
Combatwoundedveteran have an incredibly intense sound, melding all the best elements of screamo with all the best elements of grindcore giving them a sound that really is all their own. Pure chaotic dissonance comes in spastic bursts leaving your ears feeling like they're going to bleed.
Drawing inspiration from powerviolence bands like Assück, Charles Bronson, and Man Is The Bastard, but putting a unique twist on it with shrill shrieks; more reminiscent of "screamo" than typical grindcore. Their instrumental sound, though rooted in grindcore and power violence, screeched vocal also has noticeable elements of math-rock and more technically complex styles.
They're one of the more documented bands of the time, a host of photos, videos, fliers and all of their recorded music online for streaming, but I still thought they deserved a post for being such a unique and influential band.
