Misery Index
Formed in Baltimore, Maryland in 2001 by former Dying Fetus bassist Jason Netherton, Misery Index combine death metal with hardcore punk and grindcore in a style that consistently foregrounds political and social critique. Their debut Retaliate (2003) on Nuclear Blast established the template, and the band has maintained a steady output through albums including Heirs to Thievery (2010), Rituals of Power (2019), and Complete Control (2022). They are among the most consistent acts working at the intersection of death metal and grindcore.
