Comment: Fails WP:NMUSIC, requires significant coverage in multiple independent secondary sources. Discogs is not an acceptable or reliable source. Horr Records is a primary source and therefore not independent or reliable either. TrouserPress is a mention in passing - "about whom the less said the better". MisfitsCentrral and SleezeGrinder are questionable sources at best. Dan arndt (talk) 03:00, 11 September 2023 (UTC)

Career
Early years (1979–1985)
Peak of fame (1985–1987)
Resurgence (2010)
After the band's break-up in the late 1980s, lead singer Bobby Ebz's drug addictions led to a five year jail sentence, and would be the cause of his untimely death in 2002.[2] Genöcide continued to have a cult following, in New Jersey and nationwide among punk rock and metal fans. In 2010, a compilation of Genöcide's greatest hits was released on picture disc and vinyl by Danish metal label Horror Records,[3] which was run by musician Azter of the band Denial of God.[4]
