Greed is the debut and only album by the English nu metal band Pulkas.

Reception[edit]

Writing for Chronicles of Chaos, Adrian Bromley praised the album, stating that the band "has managed to capture a vibe of metal music that seems too hard to find nowadays".[5] The instrumentation of the band has been compared to that of Tool and Neurosis.[6][7]

In retrospective reviews, Greed has been described as having "aged surprisingly well and hasn’t dated anywhere near as much as the likes of One Minute Silence et al".[3] A 2020 list of "one-album wonders" by Louder Sound considered it "an unbelievable slab of alt. metal perfection".[2]
