Their EP ''[[Greed Killing]]'' was released through Earache in December 1995, followed by the album ''[[Diatribes (album)|Diatribes]]'' in January 1996. There was greater animosity between the band during this time, with a rift between Greenway and the remainder of the band, especially over the band's stylistic transition and the interference of background presences in the band, exemplifying the former when he stated that the band were "letting go of what made the band special".<ref name="youtube1"/> Greenway was hence expelled from the band later in 1996, and went to record with fellow grindcore act [[Extreme Noise Terror]] (ENT) on their release ''[[Damage 381]]''. Greenway has stated that following his expulsion he was "devastated" and did not want to commit to ENT in fear of a repetition of the events that took place within Napalm Death.<ref name="youtube1"/>

ENT's vocalist Phil Vane replaced Greenway in Napalm Death. Alas, Shane Embury stated that Vane "couldn't pull off what was required. It was a hard day when I had to pull Phil aside and tell him it just wasn't working. We had been too much into doing our own thing to acknowledge all of the parts that made the Napalm machine tick. I quickly made the call and asked Barney if he would rejoin—time away certainly gave all of us the chance for reflection, regrets and hopes for the future. He was surprised by the material, as it was heavy and some of the songs were fast—I don't know what he really expected us to do!".<ref name="decibelmagazine2">{{Cite web|url=https://www.decibelmagazine.com/2017/12/13/rank-defile-shane-embury-orders-napalm-deaths-albums-worst-best/|title=Rank and Defile: Shane Embury Orders Napalm Death's Albums from Worst to Best|date=13 December 2017|website=Decibelmagazine.com}}</ref> Following Vane's departure, Greenway returned and the band released the album ''[[Inside the Torn Apart]]'' on 3 June 1997. An [[Breed to Breathe|EP]] and music video were released for the album's track "Breed to Breathe" on 17 November 1997.

The album ''[[Words from the Exit Wound]]'' followed this, being released on 26 October 1998. The album was their last to be produced by [[Colin Richardson]], who Embury believes hindered the album's creation, ultimately affecting the album's success.<ref name="decibelmagazine2"/> Embury has stated that bands such as [[Nasum (band)|Nasum]] influenced the album, and in Embury's view, this album represented a turning point in the band's sound, stating "it was also a turning point in us moving towards rediscovering our roots."<ref name="decibelmagazine2"/> Embury also mentioned that following the album's release, the band found it hard to tour due to restricted budgets from their record label, but [[Cradle of Filth]] and [[Nick Barker (Australian musician)|Nick Barker]] were able to alleviate this problem.<ref name="decibelmagazine2"/>

In 1999 the band made an appearance on [[Chris Evans (presenter)|Chris Evans']] [[TFI Friday]], playing three songs on a set lasting 59 seconds.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/music/2015/jun/12/tfi-fridays-best-performances-manics-garbage-page-and-plant-shaun-ryder-slipknot|title=TFI Friday's best performances: Manics, Garbage, Page and Plant and more|first=Marc|last=Burrows|date=12 June 2015|website=The Guardian}}</ref>
