Where would one start with Napalm Death and early grindcore in general?

I'd go with everyone else and recommend Scum, the defining classic of the genre, and to a lesser extent From Enslavement to Obliteration. Carcass have been mentioned, you should pick up Reek of Putrefacation, the first goregrind album, and the first, as far as I'm aware,to utilise pitchshifting vocals. Other seminal grindcore bands were the Electro-Hippies, Extreme Noise Terror, Unseen Terror, Terrorizer, and come to think of it - any band with 'Terror' as part of it's name..

There seem to be a number of their albums out and I was wondering what good places to start are with Guitar Wolf, The Boredoms, The Pillows and Acid Mothers Temple. Thanks a lot.

The Boredoms sound has changed quite a bit since their inception, If you prefer their noise-rock sound, I'd say Chocolate Synthesizer is the most accessible album, but if you prefer their later psychedelic/prog influenced music you could try Vision Creation Newsun.

Guitar Wolf aren't so diverse, I'd go with Planet of the Wolves - although there's a good best of compilation called Golden Black.

I'd quite like some recommendations for Acid Mothers Temple myself.

Anyone mind telling me where to get started with Dub Reggae in general? I've only heard a couple of tracks from the genre but I really liked what I heard, who are the 'big names' I can get started with?

You could start off by getting the Trojan Dub boxset. Anything produced by Lee 'Scratch' Perry is a good bet. Try youtubing King Tubby, Scientist, Augustus Pablo, Yabby You or Jah Shaka.

My favourite dub album is entitled Prince Jammy Destroys the Invaders. It's themed around Space Invaders.
