Death Metal

[ASD]

I liked the interludes on Seven Chalices.

 

[Eligos]

They're tasteful. They break up a lot of repetition.

Dødsengel - Mirium Occultum

Only thing on your list I don't know. What/how is this?

 

[skeptik]

Norwegian black metal. Not sure how into black metal you are though. I think it does a very good job of walking the fine line between having its own sound yet being recognizably within the Norwegian tradition.

dodens last question of laziness, any distros that carry all or all over the place?

 

[supseudonymous]

Adversarial - All Idols Fall Before the Hammer

Obligatory "production ruined it" post.

btw check out the new Deteriorot, it's a beautiful thing

 

[Dagon666]

Man, Death is killing me right now (no pun intended). Chuck Shuldiner was a fucking genius.

Just wondering, how the hell did they play live back in the SBG days? With just two guys playing a total of 4 instruments (volcals included) on the album and all. Did they play-back some of the instruments?

 

[Inso]

Session musicians probably, no band with any ounce of respectability would play back instrument parts in a live set

Death metal in 2010... Whats happening? Seems like more of a black metal year from what ive heard. Anybody got any good recs from this year so far?

 

[wandering_taco]

Does the beginning of Passing Stone- Into the Greater Sun by StarGazer remind anyone else strongly of Glemselens Elv?

The new Weapon is great, but that triggered bass drum is bothering me. Dont know why all these newer bands insist on using triggers. Only other one ive heard on the list was Witchrist, gotta give it another spin before I give my thoughts though. If the new Defeated Sanity is as good as Psalms of the Moribund im sure that ill enjoy it. Have yet to check out the new Immolation, just havent been in the mood for it lately. Thanks for the list dude.

Prosanctus Inferi's Pandemonic Ululations of Vesperic Palpitation (what a title ) is killer black death, definitely loving this.

I haven't heard Psalms but Chapters of Repugnance is definitely an ass kicker

 

[VelociBrad]

yeah Prosanctus Inferi is bad ass.

 

[gundamterran]

Psalms sucks balls in the face of Chapters of Repugnance. Good list VelociBrad, but I don't think even I could make a top 10, as there are way too many quality death metal and black/death metal demos and albums coming out this year.

 

[VelociBrad]

Might as well throw Brutally Deceased - Dead Lovers' Guide onto the list. It's great Dismember worship (if you are into Dismember - check it out).

1. Weapon - From the Devil's Tomb

This is brilliant, just checking out some of it on youtube. Has an interesting style and almost hypnotic tempo, good rec.
