Coldworker

Coldworker was founded in early 2006 by Nasum drummer Anders Jakobson shortly after the sad demise of that band (due to its founder, Mieszko Talarczyk, dying in the 2004 Asian tsunami disaster). While there are grindcore influences here and there on The Contaminated Void, in general this is far closer to typical brutal Swedish death metal than true grindcore. As such, it's got all the right elements for prime death metal, such as bludgeoning riffs, gruff vocals, and a good, if not dense production. It doesn't exactly overpower with originality, but then again this was a young band perhaps still looking for a direction. They followed up Void with two albums in 2008 and 2012 before disbanding in July 2013.
