During this time, Earache's output was not just limited to Death Metal records but embraced all manner of similarly extreme offshoots, from Industrial-Metal pioneers Godflesh and Pitchshifter, to the sludgy Doom of Cathedral, and laid-back Californians Sleep, one of the earliest Stoner Rock bands.
These signings were far removed from the Extreme Metal scene Earache was known for and synonymous with, but during this period Welsh act Dub War scored the label 5 UK singles chart hits and for a couple of years were Earache's most succesful act in the UK.
To emphasise the coming sea-change in the scene, and that Earache was 100% committed to unearthing new talent, 2 of the labels long-term legacy acts Napalm Death and Cathedral were dropped from the roster by late 99, after just over a decade of recording for the label.
An earache is a commonly used term for ear pain or discomfort that is a symptom of disease or injury.
Infections of the middle and outer ears are often associated with earaches.
Other causes of an earache may be the obstruction of the ear canal with a foreign object or excessive ear wax, boils in the ear canal, a herpes zoster infection of the ear, keratosis of the ear, tumors, an infection of the mastoid process, "swimmer's ear," and the aftermath of surgical procedures.
