Dying Fetus

An extreme metal group with a knack for locating the sweet spot between blastbeats, guttural vocals, and hooks, Maryland's Dying Fetus combine elements of technical death metal and hardcore to forge their own distinctive brand of American grindcore. Emerging in the early '90s, the band earned a loyal following in the metal underground before flirting with mainstream success in the 2010s with Billboard-charting efforts like Reign Supreme (2012) and Wrong One to Fuck With (2017). With guitarist, vocalist, and sole constant member John Gallagher at the helm, Dying Fetus continued to snap necks on their uncompromising ninth long-player, 2023's Make Them Beg for Death.
