Chelsea Grin is the debut EP by American deathcore band Chelsea Grin, released in 2008. It was initially released as downloadable content through iTunes and was later made available as a CD. It assisted in popularizing the band and is their only release through Statik Factory Records before switching to Artery Recordings the following year of its release. The songs "Cheyne Stokes" and "Recreant" were re-recorded for their debut full-length album, which was released in February 2010. This is their only recording as 5 piece before they switched to their signature 6 piece lineup by adding a third guitarist, which would last until 2018.
