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.
