Greber is a band from Ontario, Canada, whose debut album was released last year through their bandcamp. Greber is formed by bassist Marc Bourgon from the infamous Grindcore band Fuck The Facts and drummer Steve Vargas from the band The Great Sabatini.
The quality that characterizes Greber the most is, as you may notice, their lack of guitars. Even though some tracks do feature some sparse guitar work, what we will find here is some blunt, heavy and nasty bass-n-drum grindcore. However, do not just "meh" at it before you listen, as you are going to have an incredible surprise at the sound that this great duo achieves with just that. The fact that it's only the bass doing leads gives it a sort of Mathcore-y feeling which serves their sound in just the right way, and you'd be surprised at all oft eh different works that Marc can do, from the melancholy of songs like The Saddest Joke Ever Told to raw and bare sound of the pure grindcore piece Bullfighting Accident.
So yeah, amazing grindcore band featuring only bass, drums, and vocals. Great stuff, very recommended if you are into this sort of thing or are simply curious to see how this works out.
