Anyways, the general consensus of "great grindcore" usually involves a few of the following:
Pig Destroyer
Godflesh (mainly the "Streetcleaner" album)
Carcass (first 3 albums)
Repulsion
Napalm Death
Some great "second tier" bands are:
Unseen Terror
Assuck
Exhumed
General Surgery
Discordance Axis
Bolt Thrower (although I'd call them death metal, they generally get labelled grindcore)
Impetigo
Watchmaker
Commit Suicide
Extreme Noise Terror
Agoraphobic Nosebleed
****...I'm Dead
Nasum
Nuclear Death
Sore Throat
....mind, these aren't all bands I'd personally endorse, but these are the more common names.

No Terrorizer? "World Downfall" is the top of the style. Best grindcore release.
Your top tier is good though, despite missing them. Second is decent, though I would consider Bolt Thrower a death/grind band... they have elements of both, more of a grind leaning on first couple records.
Assuck is also amazing.
