Deeds of Flesh
Dying Fetus
I like Dying Fetus. They have some pretty heavy, angry stuff. They are not really "brutal" death metal, though. Ironically, they are more brutal than most "brutal" death metal bands. The term "brutal death metal" refers to really low register, monotonous death metal incorporating slams instead of solos. Dying Fetus is brutal, and they are definitely death metal, but for some reason, they aren't brutal death metal. It's a weird classification. Dying Fetus is better than Cannibal Corpse in my opinion. I find Cannibal Corpse to be a bit flat, especially nowadays. In the early 90s, with Chris Barnes, they were a great band, but now, they have joined the list of flat, over l y modern sounding metal bands, along with Slipknot. They obviously aren't that bad, of course, but they are pretty boring. It's the same "gore, guts chug chug chug". Chris Barnes wrote gory lyrics, but they didn't get boring because they were so descriptive. The most recent Cannibal Corpse album actually seems promising, though. I have heard two songs from it, they are both very good, technical, and catchy. It is the best material they have released in years. I actually had to turn Torture off halfway through. Sorry, that is just my opinion on Cannibal Corpse.
My favorite death metal band is Death.
