It seems to me that you just have no clue as to what "heaviness" is if you think the bands i listed aren't as heavy as most of the shit you post ... or maybe your ears are just plain broken? You're the same guy that was trying to imply that Iced Eearth is heavier than most thrash, right?
Well lets try to consider that heaviness used in the context of anything labeled as death metal is subjective.
Atheist, although interesting enough to sometimes listen to, overall I find them pretty boring just barley heavy enough to even possibly consider them as death metal, also their vocalist kind of sucks.
Spawn of Possession, is boring and overly technical to the point where I cannot stand their music, the first album wasn't as horrible as the last two though.
Cryptopsy, is not your average band, personally I would consider their earliest material brutal death metal, after that period they kind of went shit entirely, some of their stuff after none so vile I like but I would never wake up and be like " oh shit what a lovely day for some Cryptopsy " Also they're probably the most overrated death metal band ever.
Death always maintained a heaviness in their sound and always had good riffs, nothing bad to say about them. Maybe they get seriously overrated now because Chuck died but the music still remains the same to me.
Obscura is some of the most boring shit I've ever had the displeasure of listening to, they have some decent songs like ocean gateways though and their main composer is pretty damn good at copy other bands (Death and Dissection mainly)
Martyr has one album (warp zone) that I actually enjoy quite a lot, reminds me of early-ish Meshuggah mixed in with some of the prog death that was going on then, the title track has some great riffs. Also the vocalist is pretty unique so that's kind of a plus.
Gorod, absolutely boring standard tech-death, they get great reviews but I certainly don't see anything special about them.
Origin, probably the shittiest band of all named bands, ooo look at us we're so br00tal and innovative with our super sweeps of omega br00tality and crappy metal/deathcore-esque breakdowns.
And I already made it clear I find Psycroptic fairly interesting and fun to listen to.
IYou're the same guy that was trying to imply that Iced Eearth is heavier than most thrash, right?
Almost missed this, no I'm not implying Iced Earth is entirely more heavy than most thrash, i was implying the song Dantes Inferno is more heavy than most thrash (at least thrash I've listened to, and obviously i'm not counting death/thrash)
Also I don't only listen to heavy music so your comment "heavier than most of the stuff you post" is totally irrelevant and relatively retarded.
