They play in the vein of bands like Lärm, What Happens Next?, Mk-Ultra, Voetsek , LxExAxRxNx, DS-13, Scholastic Deth, Bones Brigade, etc. Very goofy, catchy and hard not to like. Here is their first full-length record from 2007.

Brody's Militia & Widespread Bloodshed - Split CD (2003)

Brody's Militia is a fastcore band from Ft. Mitchell, Kentucky, USA and Widespread Bloodshed is a thrashcore band Skåne län, Sweden. Brody's Militia is quite similar to bands such as Hellnation, Spazz and maybe even Yacøpsæ; essentially just early American hardcore played at a super fast speed with occasional weird tempos loaded with pleanty of goofiness. Widespread Bloodshed possibly sounds far more raging and face-rippingly intensive than all the coolest thrashcore bands ever blended together, such as Lärm, S.O.B. and even the latter thrash tyrants, What Happens Next?

F.A.T.O. & Karma Jawless - Split EP (2005)

F.A.T.O. were a mincecore / thrashcore band from Peterborough, Ontario, Canada. Formed around the early 2000s and broke-up in 2009 after the tragic death of their bassist, founding member and all around amazing human being, Michael Majewski. During their existence as a band, local and occasional out-of-town gigs were a regular event but as far as I know, they didn't tour or play shows that weren't in relative driving distance. Their sound is kind of unique; firstly, because they were only bass-drums-vocals until they got a guitarist for gigs in their final couple years and secondly, it incorporates a lot of normally not 'mashed together' styles (aside from mincecore and thrashcore, there were some obvious speed metal and slight death metal hints to the tunes. Lyrics are mostly about stupid funny shit, but that was to be expected by you after glancing at the cover(s), yes?

Karma Jawless is the other band on this split and I don't know anything about them other than that their from Lithuania. Never bothered listening to the Karma Jawless side because the song titles hinted that lyrically, they share common misogynistic idiocy with pornogrind - and thus, got turned off entirely. They may be decent musically though, give it a listen if you have the patience.

Here's a split CD-R between the two bands, "Live Terror" and "Demo #1/Split Live Tape". Be aware that this is ALL live material.

Take One For The Team - Mosh Hard With A Vengeance (2006)

Take One For The Team are a thrashcore band from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. They've been active since the early 2000s and have done some considerable gigging within Canada during that time, so if you've been here and into to moderately cool shit in the last 10 years, you probably know - or know of - their existence. As I already mentioned, the style is in the thrashcore vein - think stuff like Lärm, What Happens Next?, Vöetsek - which is not totally dissimilar from grind in itself, but because the lineup is comprised of a couple grinders, it definitely reflects a little in the music. The lyrics follow with the usual really really stupid and funny approach, so stay away from this unless you wear water-wings and put things up your nose on a daily basis.

I think they've actually broken up but check out neat side-projects that they continue to play in: Harsh Supplement, Critical Convictions, Dirty Methods and Have At It! to name a few, there might be a lot more I'm missing. Their bassist / vocalist, Richard, runs Sir Punkly Records who has an incredible awesome catalog of fast/noisy/loud shit, so be sure to check that out and throw him some chedda if you can (AKA ordering records).
