Slang from the music world for grindcore — the brutally fast, abrasive subgenre of extreme metal and hardcore punk characterized by distorted guitars, blast-beat drumming, and vocals that lean toward screaming or guttural growls. Adding '-age' to 'grind' gives the genre a collective, almost commodified feel, as though grindage is a substance you can consume in bulk. Fans use it both affectionately and as a quick genre shorthand in online music communities and zine culture.
The playlist was nothing but grindage — three-minute songs that hit like a car crash and left you breathless.
