Need Grindcore recommendations
I just bought Pig Destroyer's Phantom Limb, was impressed by it, and need recommendations for other good grindcore records.

Not strictly grindcore but just as groovy:
- Driller Killer
1
- Discordance Axis - The Inalienable Dreamless (best grind record there is)
- Agoraphobic Nosebleed - Agorapocalypse (the guy from Pig Destroyer, drum machine shit. better than any Pig Destroyer IMO)
- Genghis Tron - Dead Mountain Mouth (weird and electronic)
- Ed Gein - It's a Shame a Family Can Be Torn Apart by Something as Simple as a Pack of Wild Dogs (this is the most brutal thing you will ever hear)

Romantic Gorilla, Magrudergrind, Blood Duster, Agoraphobic Nosebleed, Assück; are some of my favourites. Check out this link though. Granted its wiki but should get you going

Cephalic Carnage, though it's more goregrind than grindcore.

They aren't goregrind. I would say they're pothead death grind. Good music, nonetheless.

Pothead death grind is a subgenre of goregrind in my mind.

Rocky Mountain Hydro Grind.

Since you liked Pig Destroyer's new material, make sure you get their 38 Counts of Battery album. It's a comp of all their demos and it is downright ferocious.
Nasum is a must. They have an amazingly unique style of grindcore. Get all their stuff.
Make sure you get OLD Brutal Truth, their newer material is more experimental metal and not grind. Go chronologically, Extreme Conditions is great.
I also really enjoy Insect Warfare, they are far too angry for words. World Extermination is a fine album.
Birdflesh is a fantastic grind band with a bit of humor thrown in. I enjoyed the album Mongo Musicale.
Old Carcass, pre-heartwork, is very raw old style grindcore worth checking out. They laid the groundwork for a lot of these more recent bands. Pig Destroyer covers them on 38 Counts.
The other posts about cover it, so get to it!

Nasum!!!!! Grind Finale!!!! Do it!!!!

!T.O.O.H.! (one of the best grind bands i've ever heard. Get their album 'Rad a Trest') http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Egw9BCKjHqk
Assuck
Brutal Truth
Bucket Full of Teeth
Carcass
Discordance Axis - The Inalienable Dreamless (one of the best grind records ever)
Kill the Client
Lykathea Aflame [They could also be called tech death but they are heavily grind influenced. Not only that, but their album elvenefris is the single greatest extreme metal album ever created. oh, and best drumming ever] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aYOX-W3Jri4
Impaled
Insect Warfare
Napalm Death
Rotten Sound (Exit and previous albums have Kai Hahto, an amazing grindcore drummer) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqeV-4NmYUk
and of course
Terrorizer - World Downfall

You have a lot of bands that are in between death and grind, so I'm going to add Misery Index to your suggestions.
edit: Mumakil too
1
wtf, how did i forget misery index. Never heard of mumakil, i'll check them out

I'm not sure if Damaged qualifies as grindcore but they're an amazing band. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZ27Ayq6TdM&feature=related

Nasum! Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza! Cattle Decapitation! The Berzerker!

Assück

D07c0m and KungFuJesus recommended them before I did, but they were so good that I thought I'd be the third person to mention them. Listen to Anticapital; it's their best release in my opinion.

ColdWorker
Circle of Dead Children

Be forewarned, there's a lot of death metal and improperly catagorized bands on here. Good bands, but not grind. Here's one yet to be mentioned: Extreme Noise Terror
2
Oh, and Repulsion.

Pig Destroyer - Prowler in the Yard

Braindrill

Upvote for discordance axis. Pretty much the best grind band ever, imho.
People who mention Carcass deserve an upvote.

With a 60 year old doctor bass player. Fucking awesome!
