Death Metal Hall Of Fame

[scorpio01169]

Who would you nominate the the death metal hof if there was one? List five bands and only five.

1. Death
2. Kreator
3. Sodom
4. Cannibal Corpse
5. Morbid Angel

 

[Force666]

Sorry dude, but I think Sodom and Kreator would be considered German Thrash.


Death
Morbid Angel
Cannibal Corpse
Deicide
Suffocation

Would probably be my Top Pop HoF DM bands.

you're right..the reason I picked them is because they were part of the Death explosion in the late 80s and early 90s

 

[Dylan S]

Yeh I wouldn't think Sodom and Kreator would be included in such a list.

Anyway...in no particular order because I don't want to think about order at the moment...

Decapitated.
Cannibal Corpse.
Behemoth.
Nile.
Edge of Sanity.

 

[Chryst Krispies]

Cannibal Corpse
Suffocation
Morbid Angel
Deicide
Death

Only because all these bands basically started shit up.

 

[scorpio01169]

looks like Cannibal would get voted in so far

 

[~BURNY~]

At the Gates
Carcass
Morbid Angel
Death
Pestilence

Honorable mention:
Suffocation
Edge Of Sanity
Vader
Unleashed
Dismember

 

[GarethSE]

1. Gorguts
2. Cryptopsy
3. Morbid Angel
4. Nile
5. Decrepit Birth (for the first album, filth filth filth)

 

[P-E]

To me :

Death
Cynic
Carcass
Quo Vadis
Martyr

 

[Jarkko Mattheiszen]

I'd say Cannibal Corpse, Morbid Angel, Deicide, Death and Carcass. Not surprised all of them have been mentioned already

 

[GarethSE]

dissapointing lack of gorguts in dis topic

 

[Line666]

Pantera.

 

[GarethSE]

[sadistik necrofiend]

1.Morbid Angel
2.Mortem (peru)
3.Possessed
4.Sadistic Intent
5.Immolation

 

[GarethSE]

^ immolation would have been my next pick
nothing quite like a good immolation riff

 

[scorpio01169]

1.Morbid Angel
2.Mortem (peru)
3.Possessed
4.Sadistic Intent
5.Immolation

wasn't Possessed considered thrash? but anyway, they were brutal.

 

[sadistik necrofiend]

Well since Possessed coined the term Death Metal (from the seven churches album) I think that warrants them to being Death Metal.

 

[tarbh666]

Fuck's sake lads!! I'm disgusted nobody mentioned Autopsy!
Autopsy, Death (early material obviously), Morbid Angel, Carcass and Nihilist (pre Entombed) would get my votes.

how about morgoth or pyrexia

 

[tarbh666]

how about morgoth or pyrexia

Both were great bands in their day, Sermon of Mockery by Pyrexia is a classic and is the only album I think that can stand up to Effigy Of The Forgotten.
Loved the first couple of Morgoth releases, particularly The Eternal Fall and Cursed.... wasn't to fussed over Odium and Fell Sorry for The Fanatic was uke:

Used to love Bolt Thrower, Asphyx, early Gorefest (False is awesome!), early Pestilence (the Van Drunen stuff) and Pungent Stench Thems were the days
