Terrorizer is a Grindcore band from Los Angeles / Huntington Park, California. They gained recognition after releasing their full-length album "World Downfall" in 1989, which was recorded at the renowned Morrisound Recordings studio with engineer Scott Burns. Notably, David Vincent of Morbid Angel filled in on bass for this album. Their lyrics address socio-political issues and animal rights/environmental topics.

Following their initial split in 1988, members of Terrorizer went on to join other influential bands such as Napalm Death, Morbid Angel, and Nausea. In 2006, they released their second album "Darker Days Ahead," featuring a mix of old demo songs and new material. Sadly, guitarist Jesse Pintado passed away shortly after its release.

The band reactivated in 2008 with new songs and Katina taking over guitar duties. Their third album "Hordes of Zombies" was recorded in 2011 but underwent delays due to Pete Sandoval's back surgery. It was eventually released on Season of Mist in February 2012.

One of the landmark albums of the late-'80s grindcore uprising, World Downfall is nonetheless one of the least known, because the band only existed long enough to record this one Earache release.
