Lock Up is a British grindcore supergroup originally formed in 1998 as a Napalm Death side project by Shane Embury and Nicholas Barker with then ND guitarist Jesse Pintado. The band was conceived as a booze-fueled return to the raw brutality of 1980s proto-death metal, and Embury remains the only original member. Hypocrisy vocalist Peter Tägtgren sang on their debut album, Pleasures Pave Sewers, in 1999. For 2002's Hate Breeds Suffering, At the Gates/Disfear vocalist Tomas Lindberg claimed the frontman role. Pintado died in 2006. For 2011's Necropolis Transparent, the band recruited Brujeria/Criminal guitarist Anton Reisenegger. Lock Up's members were so busy with their other projects that it was a full seven years before they released Demonization with Venomous Concept vocalist Kevin Sharp. On 2021's The Dregs of Hades, they debuted new drummer Adam Jarvis (Pig Destroyer) and a two-voice frontline from Lindberg and Sharp.
