BAND OF THE DAY: БУТ/BUT

Forming in July 2009, Czech newcomers But, preferring their name in Cyrillic as the far more evocative БУТ, may feature the former drummer of gurgling death/grind blastmasters Ingrowing, but the band have earned a place at this year's Obscene Extreme, as well as a forthcoming debut album on Bizarre Leprous through sheer clattering grindcore chaos alone.

Battering out the same brand of unrelenting, wind tunnel grindcore as modern Napalm Death and Brutal Truth, a less d-beat driven Phobia and French grind commandos Blockheads, it doesn't matter how old they are, or who makes up the roster – БУТ have already shared stages with General Surgery, Poppy Seed Grinder, Pigsty, Needful Things, Cripple Bastards, Afgrund, Rotting Christ and Pestilence, and like a proud parent we're going to watch them come of age, teach them to shave with a tear in our eye, and let them out into the world.
