Carcass - Heartwork

My short list obviously ignores subgenres.

 

[Dev]

Diseection .. Death ? I'd consider The Somberlain to be Death maybe (at least more than SOTLB ) , but not SOTLB.

My list (in order)
Carcass - Necroticism
Morbid Angel - Blessed Are The Sick
Carcass - Heartwork
Death - Individual Thought Patterns
Nile - Amongst the Catacombs of Nephren-Ka

 

[En Vind Av Sorg]

Morbid Angel- Domination
Nile- In their Darkened shrines
At the Gates- Terminal Spirit Disease
Death- Symbolic
Earthcorpse- Born Bleeding

 

[En Vind Av Sorg]

BWD- is that Hellhammer in your sig.?

 

[Erik]

Judging from the URL, yes. He looks like he's in Black Sabbath or something.

 

[En Vind Av Sorg]

Yea i forgot about the URL. The picture looks like its from DMDS days.

 

[Black Winter Day]

yes and yes

 

[JayKeeley]

Eucharist - A Velvet Creation
Pestilence - Testimony of the Ancients
Amorphis - Thousand Lakes
Edge of Sanity - Crimson PART ONE
Nile - Darkened Shrines

And maybe Sounds of Perseverance. Feels wrong not to have Death in my list.

My list rules. I've got melo / thrash / folk / prog / Egyptian death genres.

Are Opeth death metal then? What makes them DM - the vocals? Is Brave Murder Day considered "death"?

 

[Sado God]

Cryptopsy - ...And Then You'll Beg
Morbid Angel - Covenant
Aborted - Goremageddon
Dying Fetus - Killing On Adrenaline
Cannibal Corpse - Tomb Of The Mutilated

 

[JayKeeley]

So no Bolt Thrower, Vader, In Flames, or Amon Amarth from anyone?
