Brutal/Slam Death Metal

Check out Necrambulant, Cranial Osteotomy, Hostile Eyes, Candero, Genital Mutilation and fucking Party Cannon if you haven't already. :kickass:
 
Ezo's demo is one of the only pure-strain funeral slam things to have ever existed, I think they sort of started and ended it, as it's been tough to find really funeral-y stuff since that album... their debut is much more upbeat. Bodysnatch's newest has some good ones sometimes, though.

I was waiting for you to come in and learn me a little somethin in your area of expertise. I am going to check out Bodysnatch right now. Ezo is definitely one of the best styles of slam I've heard so far. I love the 'funeral slam' style moniker, too. Fits perfectly. I wish there was more like it out there.
 
Funeral slam is a term coined by myself and Nick (cookiecutter) on our blog Slam-Minded several years back. I will refer you to this quote to understand what I mean when I evoke the term:

[A funeral slam] is a slam that either begins at the normal, average pace of the song and descends sharply into hanging chords punctuated by equally slow drums; essentially the equivalent of a sonic bludgeoning...or one that comes out of absolutely nowhere in the most ludicrous, whiplash-inducing way possible.

Thanks V5. Starting to understand you and cookiecutter's trademarked term. When it comes to slam death being widely known, I think of my metalhead friends. Of all my friends which listen to metal (15-20 persons), maybe 20% listen and appreciate death metal, and none of them listen to brutal/slam death. I wonder how common this sample size is? No doubt, brutal/slam death is the black sheep of the family.
 
The first brutal death band that I ever heard and actually acknowledged as brutal death metal was Abominable Putridity's first album. Ever since hearing this style of metal, I've been hooked.
