Yet at the same time Subvert the Dominate Paradigm is decidedly modern, with guitar work clearly influenced with the contemporary sting of tech grind.
Those looking for grindcore with that classic flavor will find it with Subvert the Dominate Paradigm. Tracks like "Minefield," "Translucent" and "Silent Guilt of the Reaper"(all under a minute long) would not have been out of place in the early 90's, and "Containment of the Earth" the best Napalm Death song the band haven't written in a while. There are dozens of chunky riffs and an obvious influence of classic crust punk slathered over the entire album. All a driven by the relentless blasting and thrash beats of drummer Bryan Fajardo, while the vocals evoke the classic throaty grunts, yells and throat slicing shrieks of the genre's classic purveyors. No tracks go over the two minute mark and most typically fall under one minute. With the exception of the last track(more on that in a minute), the remaining 29 tracks on Subvert the Dominate Paradigm are the definition of classic grindcore. Subvert the Dominate Paradigm builds from a foundation of old school inspired grindcore and adds layers of dissonant technical flourishes on top to build a truly profane structure. Noisear take both the crust and the wank and slammed them together, heating and melting them into a molten pile of formless carbon, then reshapes the new element into something sharper, uglier and more brutal than ever. Subvert the Dominate Paradigm is perhaps the most appropriately named album in history, for that is exactly what this album accomplishes. My advice? Let Noisear define it for you instead. For the uninitiated, grindcore can be a damn confusing genre and figuring out what even counts as "grind" or "false grind" can be nearly impossible.
Modern acts like Fuck the Facts, Clinging to the Trees of a Forest Fire and Sulaco treat grind like a math problem and use the ghost of Discordance Axis as their calculator.

On the other side, we have the false grind, with musicians who could play free form jazz on a side gig and love fucking with tradition. Unabashedly influenced by crust punk and old school is the only school ideology, bands like Wormrot and Insect Warfare and too busy chewing at the flesh of false grind to worry about time signatures or other bullshit like that. On one side we have those who still follow the creed of early Napalm Death, Extreme Noise Terror and Terrorizer: no fluff, no bullshit, all speed. Grindcore is generally broken up into two groups, even when it comes to the respective sub genres like deathgrind and goregrind tech/wank and nontech/wank.
