Grindpad (NL)
Standing tall for nearly two decades now, Grindpad keeps on doing what it does best: play METAL.
Grindpad is not caring about the trends that come and go. With their chugging Bay Area-like Thrash, their signature Ed Repka artwork and their no holds barred live shows, they've become the Kings of Dutch Thrash metal. Metalfans know by now: when the Shark Crew plays, it's time for beer, inflatable sharks and a big-ass moshpit. With their Sharkbite! EP (2017) being called "The number 1 underground Thrash album of the last decade", their critically acclaimed full-length Violence (2020) and their 2023 EP Finger Collector Crew released to rave reviews, Grindpad guarantees to Thrash the stages.
