Napalm Death on Dead Doves, Overcoming "Defeatism," Extreme-Music Inspiration

Napalm Death are bona fide grindcore and death-metal OGs, smashing musical boundaries over nearly 40 years. But they're also, as frontman Barney Greenway puts it, an "ideas band." The deeply thoughtful and politically engaged vocalist shared some of those ideas in our recent interview with him, talking about the group's new album, Throes of Joy in the Jaws of Defeatism, its controversial cover art, his musical inspirations, the ramping up of "dehumanization principles" around the world, and why it's important for Napalm Death to serve as "another voice saying no."
