Nile is good but I couldn't believe how much of a blatant rip-off Unas is of Well of Souls.

Man, this is good stuff. It is kind of like - the album Demigod should've released after SoSE instead of Shadow Mechanics. I like how out front the melodies are, without detracting from the riffs.

It's OOP so your best bet is Ebay or regularly checking www.gemm.com
A quick search revealed one copy on Ebay for relatively decent 'buy now' price.

Any of you guys know of a band called Darth Vader's Church?
I was browsing some random small-time message board topic and came across an upload for their album Descendant Upheaval and it is pretty ass-kickin' so far.

Yeah, DVC aren't bad from what I remember. I haven't really given any of their stuff a proper listen.

Yeah, it isn't anything really amazing and mindblowing but it is just asskickin' fun OS death metal.

Yeah I have heard all of those. They range from good to great but I still think they don't reach the level of quality from the European old school.
Umm, no. For the most part I despise tech-death (i.e. Necrophagist, Pavor etc.). However, if you were to label Crimson Massacre and Portal as 'tech death', which I admit is fairly apt for their sound though in a completely different manner than the aforementioned bands, than I would say yes I do enjoy it.
With regards to Crimson Massacre specifically I fail to understand how people don't seem to appreciate that album. Sure it takes awhile to get into but its not that unfathomable to comprehend after a decent number of listens. And the style of death metal they play is extremely unique for this day and age; it has a fair degree of depth thanks to the frequent and effective use of counterpoint theory. I admit it's not perfect, but it is a high quality album that goes under-appreciated around here.
I have heard all of those save for Deteriorot. ITDS is good and Nile's best release but I rarely listen to it because whenever I am in the mood for some eastern tinged Death Metal I would much rather listen to Lykathea Aflame. That Neuraxis album is pretty good and they put on a solid live show but I don't see anything extremely special in the band. As for Augury, they are at least trying to be slightly different but as Mort already mentioned, Concealed is largely hit or miss. ACoG is enjoyable but ultimately extremely shallow and I can only stand Pavor when I am in the mood for wankage in my DM (i.e. never).
I just checked out TftT and it is indeed awesome stuff. I think this is largely because the band has been able to still hold onto that old school essence despite being inactive for so many years. One of my new favorites for sure.

I guess I was pretty lucky, I got a copy on ebay for exactly 7.08$US. Plus maybe 5$ shipping if my memory is correct.

What'up? Do you guys know this awesome DEATH METAL band from Brazil, THE ORDHER? Members of Reabaelliun and Nephasth together. You can listen it from its page www.theordher.com or www.myspace.com/theorderextreme See ya.
Bloodbath-nightmares made flesh is more heavy,crushing, and extreme musically than 'brutal death metal' and US acts, besides that none of the guitarist are even 10% as good as Blakkheim. Throwing 'brutal' onto death metal is lame and there are some new death metal bands who lead the genre and don't have to jump on trends. I think people know who are real death metal bands and make death metal and who have no clue. People need to stop supporting brutal death metal bands.

trey azagtoth, chuck schuldiner, james murphy, terrance hobbs, etc... etc... are all much better than Blakkheim@ greysie
@ greysie
Terrance Hobbs ?
are you kidding ?
that's a good one. Their last album is pretty average outside of the song "eaten", which is fucking awesome. They are a decent intro band to Old school death metal but that's about it.
listen to the solo on "abomination reborn", fuckin' amazing.
He is a good player but he's not better. that is just complete bullshit
