Famine

Famine stands as a formidable force in the UK grindcore scene, hailing from Leeds and carving a niche with their uncompromising sound. The group's approach to grindcore is as relentless as it is authentic, demonstrated in their 2016 full-length album "Razzin'" and the earlier EP "A Hand Of Sore Thumbs" from 2013. Tracks such as "Bleak," "Grindsnore," and "It Takes A Nation Of Shopkeepers To Give Me Free Food" encapsulate their raw energy and distinctive creative vision, making each release a powerful entry into the world of extreme music.

Leeds has long been admired for its dynamic underground music community, and Famine contributes to this reputation with a sound that is both abrasive and accomplished. Their catalogue demonstrates a dedication to the grindcore tradition, with bursts of aggression and sharp-witted song titles. Whether live or in the studio, Famine’s work highlights their reputation for intensity and commitment to the genre’s roots.

In October 2026, Famine will headline Demonhound Doom Fest at Voodoo Daddys in Norwich, further cementing their status as a live act to watch. For fans of high-decibel live music and unyielding grindcore, keeping an eye on Famine’s tour dates is essential.
