Death Metal

[Life Sucks]

Are there any death metal bands that just blow everyone else out of the water.
Of course for me, Nile does. But thats about it.
oh, and im talking about fairly new releases.

Newer stuff? For me: Arghoslent, The Chasm, Crimson Massacre, Nile (as well, I agree), Pavor, Anasarca, Drawn and Quartered, Deny the Urge, Necros Christos, etc. I do tend to like older death metal better, like just about everyone else here, though there are great modern death metal releases.

 

[Hell Awaits Us All]

Deathevokation, Drowned, The Chasm, Stargazer, and Repugnant kill pretty much everything else.

Cemetary - An Evil Shade of Grey

...is totally kicking my ass right now. I just love the dark, eerie feel to this album.

 

[DarkBliss]

I saw this earlier in the store, but didn't have enough cash on me to pick it up along with everything else I wanted. I hear their second album is also good.

 

[Hatebreeder]

I have been into Decapitated for less than a month and I already own three of their albums. They are one of the best modern death metal bands I've discovered in a while.

 

[cookiecutter]

I've always found them kind of boring. They were alright live though.

 

[Manic Ferocity]

I can't stand them. Way too mechanical sounding with no emotion whatsoever.

Obliteration anyone?

 

[Death Aflame]

Great album. The 'breakdown' riff in Souldrain is fucking awesome. I still need to buy this album though.

I agree and basically find poland death metal really boring in general. I notice a lot of people think just because something is really clinical and compressed and mechnical it makes musicians more complex and technical when this actually makes musicians sound flawed to me more than perfect because the music sounds disjointed. Off timing also for me does not make something technical. Humans are flesh and blood and music that sounds like robots creating it does not cut it for me.

NOTE* BLOODBATH KILLS THEM

death metal is lacking these days. maybe thats why im so big on black metal right now. Theres Nile and thats about it.

even Vader?

 

[Manic Ferocity]

Vader is boring.

 

[Matt]

Vader is boring.

Agreed. The only song of theirs that I like is the intro to the ep 'Art of War'

 

[ohiogrinder]

Vader is boring.

LOOK TIMMY, AN OPINION! WOW!

 

[rfe]

Vader fucking slays. That's just me, though.

In before somebody fixing my quote.

 

[skeptik]

Morbid Reich and The Ultimate Incantation > a lot of other shit

 

[cookiecutter]

I used to like Vader more than I do now, but they are good for some fist pumping metal.

 

[rfe]

Impressions in Blood really impressed me though, their fastest album in years.
