Death Metal

[seventhcircle]

Certainly there must be other fans of classic and newer Death Metal music on here..

Personally, I've been knee deep in Finnish DM lately (Abhorrence, Agonized, Demilich, Convulse, etc.), as it might be my favorite of the genre. Cadaveric Incubator is a great newer DM band out of that scene.

The PNW has some great acts too, like Fetid, Torture Rack, Cerebral Rot, etc.

For this genre, what else have people been listening to? Any thoughts on how Death Metal is doing nowadays?

Good to have it's own thread rather than cross pollinating with the black metal thread.

I've been really into that Fetid LP as of late. Bought direct and waiting for the actual LP to arrive but the 20 Buck Spin instant download feature is great. Also been jamming that Scorched LP from last year that just caught my radar now.

Basically for me Blood Incantation are doing a new LP and I can't see how it could disappoint. Great live, great on record.

Been jamming a lot of the Finnish stuff myself - Abhorrence, Convulse, Funebre, Purtenance all topping my list lately. That and Morbid Angel especially Formulas and Gateways which I've really been clicking with lately.

I pre-ordered that XYSMA box set last month so I'm really looking forward to that. I can definitely get into 5 LPs of material.

got the new Tomb Mold over the weekend, solid record.


Maggot Stomp has been killing it lately with bands

lately its been the first 2 Incantation albums, Immolation "Here In After", Encoffinized "Chambers Of Deprivation", Regurgitation "Tales of Necrophilia, Fallen Christ "Abduction Ritual" and the first 4 Deicide albums

I'm not huge on a lot of death metal, especially not modern stuff, but I picked this one up today. Very solid, and much more of a slow burner than the last one - a mature move.

And of course always total love for Autopsy.

love some death metal from time to time.. don't keep up on much of the new stuff, but i've heard and liked blood incantation that's mentioned here. regarding the old school finnish stuff.. was "musta seremonia" by rippikoulu mentioned? very good extremely heavy death metal, legendary demo that has been re-issued many times. lesser known old school swedish bands are also worth a listen in my opinion.. personally thinking of stuff like "the ending quest" by gorement and especially, for me, "into eternity" by desultory. i guess my all time favourite dm record would have to be altars of madness, even though i don't listen much to anything else by morbid angel. looking forward to see what gets posted in this thread

Thank you for bringing that album up, another Finnish Classic!

I saw them play in Copenhagen last year and it was amazing- I'm not the biggest fan of the Death/Doom combo, but Rippikoulu does it right.

And I agree about those lesser known bands from Sweden. Traumatic immediately comes to mind:

I see the appeal of Charnel Altar.. but personally I just listen to Spectral Voice's Necrotic Doom if i'm feeling that way.

Hahah yes! I feel like their sound is more on the death side of things, so I don't really associate them with the other death/doom bands.

Apparently Craig Pillard is no longer in the band. Hopefully they'll find a vocalist that can fill those large boots.

Can't listen to too much death metal, there is just too much which I find boring.

My favorite pure death metal albums are
Incantation - Onwards to Golgotha
Liturgy - Dawn of Ashes
Cannibal Corpse - Tomb of the Mutilated
Severe Torture - feasting on blood
Carcass - reek of putrefaction (Death/grind)
Decrepit Birth - ...and time begins,
Cryptopsy - None so vile
Severed Savior - Brutality is Law
Devourment - Butcher the weak
Severed Crotch - the nature of entropy
At the Gates - The red in the sky is ours

Also like some other stuff which isn't pure death such as black unfluenced death such as Portal (outre and swarth) and Zhrine.

Being a crossover nut, I'm really into this deathy demo.

seeing Tomb Mold in Philly tonight. I've heard nothing but praise here for the band so my expectations are pretty high.

They put on a great show - great people and great records. I'm really looking forward to the new one with that fat little monster on the cover.
