You still get the simplicity with a lot of anger and aggression, but a bit less simple because of the Metal elements. The Metal elements also make it more extreme. The screaming/growling vocals tend to be more punk, with a lot of energy. But later, it all depends on the band. Some of them tend to focus more on Metal, others on Punk.
Except that many of the bands that developed the genre had roots in metal, or became full-fledged metal bands as time went on: Repulsion, Napalm Death, Carcass, Terrifyer, Defecation, Brutal Truth, Bolt Thrower, etc. And modern grind is pretty clearly a metal sub-genre.
