My Take

Mitch Harris earns my respect for one simple reason: he has held down the guitar in Napalm Death for decades, in grindcore, the fastest and most uncompromising music there is. The path from Queens to Las Vegas's Righteous Pigs, a Defecation side project with Mick Harris, and then a permanent move to Napalm Death in 1989 reads like the resume of a true lifer. Sustaining that wall of noise year after year takes equal parts endurance and craft. The fact that he is a Halloween-born Scorpio is just perfect. I love quiet professionals who detonate on stage.

Overview

Mitchell Harris (born October 31, 1969) is an American guitarist. He started his career in the Las Vegas, Nevada grindcore band Righteous Pigs. He did a side project with Mick Harris – then the drummer of grindcore band Napalm Death – called Defecation. Shortly thereafter, he left Righteous Pigs and permanently joined Napalm Death in 1989, firstly appearing on the Harmony Corruption album.
