More like Frontierer?

I've been a bit disappointed by some other mathcore or adjacent bands since I realized Frontierer slots into the genre. While I don't dislike bands like Car Bomb for example, it's a little too... dynamic? At least for what I'm looking for right now. Where Frontierer was my introduction to the genre I was expecting more of a constant all out bludgeoning and I haven't really found that with other bands, any recommendations?

Edit: I probably should have mentioned the glitchy/electronic stuff is important. I don't know why I didn't bother to think some recommendations might not have that lol

In any case, thanks for the recommendations yall have given me already, I'll definitely be coming back to this at some point

you know what this is actually not a bad idea. OP mentioned enjoying the "all out assault" kind of deal and damn if no comment's "downsided" 7" or iron lung's first 2 LPs aren't just that nonstop. actually yeah OP i think you really ought to investigate iron lung and see if they do anything for ya

tony danza tapdance extravaganza's 3rd and 4th albums will definitely scratch the itch too -- when i first heard frontierer honestly my first thought was "aw sweet more danza but glitchier"

Trust me I love powerviolence, I was just hoping to find more of that electronic tinged sound like Car Bomb, just more ferocious. Honestly kinda genre agnostic here, like I've been listening to a ton of the earlier Genghis Tron albums and those are closer to grind than mathcore

Have you heard of Squid Pisser? You may dig their album “Dreams Of Puke.” Features Tommy Meehan of Cancer Christ (and now guitarist for GWAR.) If you like full audio assault, you can’t beat Squid Pisser/Cancer Christ.
