Death Metal

NECROMANTIC FOOOOOOG LAAAYYSSSS UPOOOOON THEEE TOOOOMBSSS OF SUCCOOOOOOOTH!!
 
I'm looking for more death metal bands in the vein of Dead Congregation, Father Befouled, Funebrarum and Ignivomous: claustrophobic, dark and generally super intense, but not slam or grind influenced per se. Recs?

The bands you mentioned are some of my favorite of the death metal genre. I highly recommend all of these if you like those bands.

The obvious Immolation & Incantation.

Lesser known bands:

Drawn and Quartered
Ceremonium
Slugathor
Cemetery Urn
Necrovation
Gorement
Cianide
Denial
Burial Invocation
Disciples Of Mockery
Interment (Did a split with Funebrarum)
Teitanblood (might be too much black metal influence for what you are looking for, but definitely check them out if you haven't)
 
This sounds cool.

Thanks dude! Here's more info -

Ritual Executions album details revealed and is up for Pre-Order!
May 23, 2010

thedead-ritualexecutions_albumcover.jpg


The second full length album of The Dead is a brilliant mix of twisted, brain-warping death metal and miasmic sludgy doom like no other. Perfectly arranged to maintain a sublime, engrossing balance, the combination of sharp, visceral hooks and massive doom trudges with remarkably groovy parts render Ritual Executions one of the most unique and fascinating albums to be released in this era. The remixing and remastering done by Aphotic Mote (Portal) specially for this DC Records version makes the originally dense and suffocating Ritual Executions much more breathable but retains the rawness and underground vibe that bring The Dead to life. The modified artwork sketched by vocalist Mike Yee suitably captures the essence and horrific otherworldly feel of The Dead's music - only a band member could achieve that.

Ritual Executions Track listing:

1. Burn Your Dead
2. Cannibal Abattoir [mp3]
3. Centurion
4. Born in a Grave
5. Ritual Executions [mp3]
6. Blood Angel
7. Death Metal Suicide [mp3 preview]

ABSCESS, the California-based band consisting of Chris Reifert (drums/vocals; ex-DEATH/AUTOPSY), Clint Bower (guitar/vocals; ex-HEXX), Danny Coralles (guitar; ex-AUTOPSY), and Joe Allen (bass; ex-VON), has officially split up.

Commented Reifert: "The reason for [the breakup] is that Clint Bower has left the band for personal reasons and out of respect to him and to all who have supported us for these 16 years, we have decided to call it a day. Without Clint Bower, there can be no ABSCESS so we won't even try to cheat anyone with something that is not the real thing. [ABSCESS' recently released eighth album] 'Dawn Of Inhumanity' has become our final statement and we feel that it is the perfect way to close the ABSCESS chapter since we must do so.

"Thanks to all of you who were and still are proud to call yourselves ABSCESS freaks!"

Reifert adds, "The other side of this statement is to announce that AUTOPSY is officially active again. With the lineup of Eric Cutler and Danny Coralles on guitars, Chris Reifert on drums/vocals and Joe Trevisano (formerly Allen) on bass, AUTOPSY is now the full-time focus. Longtime friend and bass destroyer Dan Lilker has performed with AUTOPSY at Maryland Deathfest VIII and will also do so at the upcoming Party.San and Hole In The Sky festivals in August of this year before Joe Trevisano takes over full-time on bass. A new AUTOPSY EP and full-length album are in the works and will be released on Peaceville Records, along with an upcoming documentary DVD. Also in the works is a new official AUTOPSY website, so keep your eyes open for that. Any other AUTOPSY sites or pages out there are fan sites and not run by the band.

"Again, thanks to all. All we can do is offer more brutality."
