Brutal/Slam Death Metal

Personally, i love the artwork/logo for most brutal death metal bands ... cant let stuff like that bother you. Instead, let the music paint the picture for you.

I agree. One of my favorite covers right now is Putridity's latest album. Let's not forget that the art work makes awesome fucking t-shirts too.
 
Well that's different. That's fucking epic, LOL. And it's less "pointless gore" and more "horror".

Although I admit the album itself kinda grew stale after a handful of spins, but I still definitely dig it.
 
I was hoping there would be more discussion of this album. Inhuman Devoured Content From Cranial Cavity is a bad-ass album, regardless of how it was made. I too was annoyed at first by the bass drops/bombs, especially on track 4, Butchered Maggoty Face. But once I was able to hear continuity in the song from before and after the drops, they became tolerable, even fun. Depth of Perverse Depravity is one of the heaviest fucking songs I have heard in the last few years. And you got to love the guttural and "cricket" vocals.
 
Can anyone direct me towards some old school slam? Earlier than 2000.

2 years ago I asked the same question on the Devourment board and most of these releases were recommended to me. I like all of these, buy my favorites are in Bold.

These are fairly unrelated to slam. Still, very good old school death metal.

In honesty a lot of that list entails horrible demo recordings of decent or better old school death metal with slam elements, fair warning to someone interested in checking it out.
 
Necrony - Pathological Performances is definitely not brutal/slam, just brilliant swe-death. I love that album.
 
In fairness, "slam" was pretty much in its fetal stage before 2000. Finding anything before then is gonna amount to, largely, demo recordings and good ol' BDM.
