[byrne]

anything old in the link in my signature is a must get (most have been mentioned above). the ones id point out as being massively underappreciated:

Runemagick - The Supreme Force of Eternity
Miasma - Changes

 

[Alongside Death]

Deaths' "Human" album is a masterpiece.

 

[Mort Divine]

Deaths' "Human" album is a masterpiece.

Not even remotely.

Try Ripping Corpse - Dreaming With The Dead

 

[The Ozzman]

Deaths' Symbolic album is a masterpiece.

Fixed

 

[Slayed Necros]

All I can be bothered adding is:

MERCILESS - THE AWAKENING.

 

[CF87]

Amorphis: the karelian isthmus
Demigod: slumber of sullen eyes
Adramelech: psychostasia
Grave: you'll never see
Sentenced: north from here
God Macabre: the winterlong
Asphyx: the rack
Carnage: dark recollections
Entombed: left hand path

 

[S<issors]

Yeah, Asphyx- The Rack for sure.

Also, Argholesent are more or less cockmongers.

 

[CF87]

Gorefest: false.

I consider this classic anyways.
