Grab your ballcaps and gloves, kids—it's opening day.
Puig Destroyer is essentially a baseball-themed grind band in the vein of Pig Destroyer (big surprise), which should be enough to tickle one's fancy. They're a bit rawer than Pig Destroyer themselves but have a pretty similar style otherwise, with maybe a bit of Agoraphobic Nosebleed influence here and there; more on the punk side of grindcore than the metal side but still very abrasive.
I heard their first EP some time ago and though I don't have it in front of me to reference, Wait for Spring is pretty much on par with what I remember (apologies for more references to sports than is probably healthy). Not a lot has changed since, although there's quite a bit more downtuned, filthy production and some slow sludgy sections to break up the blasting. Unfortunately (like the first EP) it feels like it's over before it even starts, but I guess that's grind for you.
Anyway there's really no reason not to check this out—these guys are still good and their music is still free. Keep catching those fly balls, and stop fucking bunting.
