Napalm Death is a grindcore/death metal band from Birmingham, England. The band was formed in the village of Meriden near Birmingham, England in 1981 by Nicholas Bullen and Miles Ratledge.Although other groups had previously played fast and aggressive music, Napalm Death is credited with defining the Grindcore genre through its fusion of punk and metal musical structures, aggressive playing, fast tempos, and deep guttural vocals.

There are no original members left in the band: indeed, the early history of the band is one of constant member rotation - by the second side of its debut album "Scum" in 1987, the band did not contain any original members.

Napalm Death have released 15 albums to date, the latest being "Apex Predator - Easy Meat".Current Members:Mark Barney Greenway (Vocals) Mitch Harris (Guitar) Shane Embury (Bass)Danny Herrera (Drums)Past Members:Vocals:Rich MilitiaLee DorrianPhil VaneGuitar:Daryl Sid FideskiRobo Justin BroadrickFrank Healy Bill Steer Jesse Pintado Bass:Nik Bullen Finbar Quinn Peanut Jim Witeley Drums:Miles Rat RatledgeMick Harris also known as Lull
