[byrne]

01. At the Gates - The Red in the Sky is Ours

03. The Chasm - Deathcult for Eternity: The Triumph
04. God Macabre - The Winterlong
05. Arghoslent - Incorrigible Bigotry

 

[Perdition's Light]

01. At the Gates - The Red in the Sky is Ours
02. Necrophobic - The Nocturnal Silence
03. The Chasm - Deathcult for Eternity: The Triumph
04. God Macabre - The Winterlong
05. Arghoslent - Incorrigible Bigotry

that's a really good list

but I would put Slumber of Sullen Eyes in the place of The Winterlong but to each his own.

 

[fates warning 666]

First two ATG (first 5 tracks of With Fear as an EP), Deathcult, Obscura and Descend into the Absurd

The others that flirt with the top 5 are Nespithe, Soulside Journey, Privilege of Evil, Longing for Death and Slumber for Sullen Eyes (no order). Maybe The Nocturnal Silence too but I'm pretty sick of it, and I don't get sick of my absolute favourites.

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

top 5 dm albums... I really cant do it. Death metal doesnt impress me like it used to.

 

[Koude Haat]

1. Morbid Angel - blessed are the sick
2. Dismember - Like an Everflowing Stream
3. Demigod - Slumber of sullen eyes
4. Therion - Beyond Sanctorum
5. Amorphis - The Karelian Isthmus

 

[ohiogrinder]

good choice,the finishing track alone makes it to be among my top ten

not that great of a record. I think Blessed Are The Sick tops it in intensity.

 

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

1. Lykathea Aflame - Elvenefris
2. Wormed - Planisphaerium
3. Demilich - Nespithe
4. Saprogenic - The Wet Sound Of Flesh On Concrete
5. Intestine Baalism - Banquet In The Darkness

That is really rough...

 

[Life Sucks]

That's really tough. In no order.

Amorphis - The Karelian Isthmus
The Chasm - Deathcult for Eternity: The Triumph
Arghoslent - Incorrigible Bigotry
Demigod - Slumber of Sullen Eyes
Demilich - Nesphite

The list would probably be different tomorrow. Well, the first three I listed have been constants for me for a long time.

 

[I-Oblivion-I]

top five (in no order)

incantation- onwards to golgotha
immolation- close to a world below
entombed- left hand path
decapitated- winds of creation
gorguts- considered dead

some others that i would consider amazing: dawn of possession, where no life dwells, the chalice of ages, effigy of the forgotten, none so vile, recremation.....

 

[EmbraceTheDeath]

Hey V5 this guy know what he's talking about!

Serious though, have you heard their first album? I think Psalms is pretty good, but I'm surprised to see it in someone's top 5 DM list

I just ordered their first album yesterday so i'm looking forward to getting that. But pretty much Psalms just instantly clicked with me. I like it so much i couldn't not put it on my top 5 right now.

 

[cookiecutter]

Their first album is different but imo it's better. If you like Psalms, check out the Brutal/Slam Death thread and I'm sure you can find or ask for some similar bands or albums.

 

[EmbraceTheDeath]

Yeah i've been reading that blog(which i'm assuming is yours?). Thats led to me to a lot of great bands

 

[cookiecutter]

It is mine and V5's. Thanks for reading

 

[Killbot]

A top 5 eh? Why not...

5. Autopsy - Mental Funeral
4. Drawn & Quartered - Extermination Revelry
3. Exhumed - Anatomy Is Destiny
2. Mithras - Worlds Beyond The veil
1. Obituary - Cause Of Death

Near misses:
Adramelech - Psychotasia
Vader - The Beast
Deeds of Flesh - Crown of Souls
Miasma - Changes
Immolation - Close To A World Below

 

[cookiecutter]

Crown of Souls over Path of the Weakening?

 

[Killbot]

They got the guitar tone absoloutely spot on for my liking, that's what elevates it above the other DoF albums.

 

[Skepticism]

Top 5 list is way to hard for me to do.

 

[Death Aflame]

top 5 dm albums... I really cant do it. Death metal doesnt impress me like it used to.

Maybe you should try listening to good death metal </busting krig's balls>

Like others have said a top 5 is ridiculously tough to nail down but mine would probably go something like this (in no order):

Asphyx - The Rack
At The Gates - The Red in the Sky is Ours
Demigod - Slumber of Sullen Eyes
Eucharist - A Velvet Creation
Molested - Blod Draum

Honorable Mentions:
Lykathea Aflame - Elvenefris
Sentenced - North From Here
Crimson Massacre - The Luster of Pandemonium
Gorguts - Obscura
Autopsy - Mental Funeral
Liers in Wait - Spiritually Uncontrolled Art

etc.
