Death Metal

[V.V.V.V.V.]

The God That Never Was is their second best album, then Indecent & Obscene, in my opinion. Some will rearrange those though...they are almost interchangeable to me. TGTNW is so damn good.

too bad Gorefest blew.

Listen to False or even mindloss before you say that. I do agree for the most part Gorefest blew.

Truth.

 

[Skepticism]

I didn't really like TGTNW too much.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

You're crazy!

 

[Rumpole]

Don't be gay.

Haha, well said.

Gomorrah - Reflections Of Inanimate Matter is pretty fucking good, very odd riffage. The clips on top of the metal is kind of weird, and it takes some time to get used to.

I need to check out UK death metal more.

I didn't find that album particularly hard to get into.

Dismember Death Metal I thought was pretty killer ...

I haven't listened to it yet, but thanks for sharing.

I'd say that 80% of old school death metal is at least good.

Indecent & Obscene is essential. I will be picking that album up soon enough.

Aside from Asphyx and Pestilence, I consider the Dutch Death Metal scene highly underrated. Even Thanatos hardly ever gets talked about. I recently acquired an amazing split between Eternal Solstice and Mourning. This is just ridiculously crushing Death Metal here. Then there's of course Sempiternal Deathreign and Castle, as well as Dead End, a band who essentially only managed to release a posthumous 7" single. Very strong material, it's unfortunate that they never made it past the demo stage while they were active.

Another great CD that I've recently acquired is by a Swiss band called Excruciation, a compilation of their early demo tracks put out by JL America. I have to give this a few more listens before I say any more about it though. I've also received Atrocity - Hallucinations, Decomposed - Hope Finally Died..., and Morpheus Descends - Ritual Of Infinity, but those have been discussed before.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Sempiternal Deathreign have such an awesome name, and are also very good musically.

 

[ohiogrinder]

aren't Sempiternal Deathreign death/doom?

oh and Dodens, are you a fan of Disharmonic Orchestra?

 

[Life Sucks]

Yes, I enjoyed Sempiternal Deathreign's album. I need to listen to it again sometime soon.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Yeah Justin, they are basically deathdoom.

Early Disharmonic Orchestra is okay.

 

[skeptik]

oh and Dodens, are you a fan of Disharmonic Orchestra?

I'm sadly not very familiar with the Austrian scene at all (Disharmonic Orchestra, Pungent Stench, Disastrous Murmur).

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

None of those bands are particularly good. Miasma were pretty much the only good Austrian DM band from back then!

 

[DarkBliss]

Early Disharmonic Orchestra bear some semblance to classic Cadaver material but they are nowhere near good, imo. Lacking coherence in places.

Just death metal, not brutal or anything
