Few (if any) radio shows could ever claim to challenge the legendary status of the late John Peel's The Peel Sessions on the BBC's Radio 1. Having first discovered them myself while sifting through the import CD racks of several long-gone indie record shops throughout the midwest, these little gems were live performances from some of rocks biggest names along with many underground legends and true sonic innovators.

Collected in Grindcore Madness At The BBC, this 3Cd set is a monster - boasting a massive 118 tracks from Napalm Death, Carcass, Bolt Thrower, Extreme Noise Terror, Heresy, »
