Assück

About Me

They were one of the most important North American extreme metal 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, the title of Assück's second album, is a term connoting the sum of national unemployment and inflation rates, used unofficially to assess a nation's economic health. The band Misery Index named themselves after the album, musically drawing heavy influence from the band.
