hmmmm... this is a tough one... I love both records... but I think I have to give it to Replusion. Their sound was so much filthier and raunchy and minimally produced.. which adds to the dark asthetic of what it set out to do. "Scum" all in all is not my favorite ND album, though it has a few good songs, especially "Siege of Power", which is one of my favorite grindcore songs.. but "Horrified" has "The Stench of Burning Death"... which is great.

All in all, I would go with Repulsion out of these 2. Just has more raunch to it, which I enjoy... My second favorite grindcore album after "World Downfall" by Terrorizer.

"Scum" is a great document of early grindcore... but I would go with the follow up "From Enslavement to Obiteration" for a better representation of early Napalm Death.


Repulsion - 1
Napalm Death - 0
