Death metal. It's a hot trend bleeding into hardcore punk right now. Cool hardcore bands are citing it as an influence. Cool kids are wearing it on vintage longsleeves. How much do we really know about it, though? Here's a crash course on the genre for hardcore kids, punks and newjacks. I'm going through the Top 40 Death Metal Albums according to British metal magazine Terrorizer and giving my thoughts on each album. I'm hearing most of the albums for the first time. Come with me on this journey through the most menacing, aggressive form of music around. Let's submerse ourselves in filth.

80's #3: The Dead Kennedys - Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables

Number 3 on the list is a personal favourite of mine as well as a bonafide punk classic, Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables by the Dead Kennedys. This record bridges the gap from punk of the 70s to hardcore of the 80s with excellent lyricism and incredible songwriting.
