Do you guys know of any grindcore bands/albums that are melodic, or at least more melodic than usual for the genre?

Dislocated Cerebrum play what one could call as melodic goregrind:

Yes! From there, try anything else featuring guitarist Takafumi Matsubara.

Gridlink

Nasum - I mean an obvious one but they got pretty damn melodic.

Beaten to Death - probably the most overtly melodic grind I can think of, wont be for everyone though.

Psudoku - melodic prog space grind, great shit Steinar Kittilsen can do no wrong.

Atka - sort of tech metal/mathcore/grind not a million miles from Gridlink in a way.

Swarrrm - if you count them as grindcore, its borderline.

Appalling Spawn - pre-Lykathea Aflame, blend brutal death metal/grind but certainly grindier than their later incarnation.

!TOOH! - Another mix of death/grind with a lot of weird shit going on. See also other Czech stuff like Contrastic, Ingrowing and Duobetic Homunkulus

Lymphatic Phelgm - Classic and weirdly melodic goregrind.

Estuarine
Not proper grindcore all the time, but some of their shit fits the bill pretty well.



The Berzerker
Sas some heavily melodic elements mixed into some of their albums



Genghis Tron
They're.... weird, more experimental. Older stuff is sorta cybergrind mixed with bits of electronic soundscapes. Perhaps it'll be up your alley. As they aged they started subltey leaning harder into the soundscape side. Just skip the newest album.

No Wormrot in this thread? I'm shocked



Also maybe unrelated, but shoutout to old school skramz music which tends to be melodic and really straddles the line between grindcore at times

I don't know if I would generally call Wormrot melodic, especially not Dirge or Abuse, but the new albums Hiss is pretty melodic at times.

I know this is a little old, but it seems like people forgot to give you Discordance Axis. Beautiful stuff, same guitarist as some of the other bands mentioned in this thread.
