Death Metal

[CiG]

Yattering rules but the only thing I've heard is Human's Pain

Genocide is a monster, man. Try that one out sometime.

I wish more bands would directly emulate Cryptopsy. You've got bands copying about every style of DM on the planet in the past few years, but very, very few seem to draw direct influence from Cryptopsy. I posed the question on the Metal Archives forum a while back asking if anyone had any recommendations for things that sound like Blasphemy Made Flesh or None So Vile, and got next-to-nothing, so I figured I'd ask here.

Here's a few that come immediately to mind, although I'm going by "sounds like early Cryptopsy" kinda loosely:

(They actually covered "Phobophile" by Cryptopsy. ^)

Some of these are pretty loose and some I think you probably already know. I only know a few of what you posted so definitely gotta check those others out. I love the Cryptopsy style so I'm always keen to hear bands that try to emulate that shit.

Hahaha I'm familiar with all those bands. Defacing I saw in Vegas a couple years ago, forgot to include them, but they fit the vibe for sure. Saprogenic rules, my boy Russ from Gutrot played with them for a while. As far as AN and Goretrade go, you won't find Colombian brutal death that I don't know lol. I've always felt that that whole scene kinda drew influence from Cryptopsy in it's snare use/tones and song-structural spasticity. CIG have you checked out my list on the Colombian scene?

 

[CiG]

...damn it.

I think I did? Was it posted in this thread?

 

[morguelord]

You really should have known, man, I know more about BDM than I do regular DM, which is a pretty decent amount lol. Anyway, I'm not certain, but I doubt it since this isn't a BDM-oriented thread. It's on my RYM, check it out if you wanna delve into literally the rawest, most absurd scene in brutal death history.

Well this is interesting.

 

[morguelord]

Some of you may remember the short-lived Wicked Innocence and their super sick 1995 album, Omnipotence:



But a lot of people aren't familiar with some of the other demo-level bands that WI members played in throughout the 90s, including Carnal Decimate:


Undertaker:


and Molester:


All three of which are definitely worth checking out.

Wormed are dropping a preview track soon for a new album. Can't fucking wait to hear it, other than that just been spinning the new Encoffinized album a shitton and keeping Torso's Demonic Vomiting demo on steady rotation.

That Carnal Decimate link was fucking sweet. The new Tomb Mold track is pretty cool, but I might be a bit burnt out on their style, or maybe I'm just not in the right headspace because it's not really hitting me like the debut did when I first heard it. Hopefully I'm feeling differently once the whole thing is out.

Recently been enjoying this promo:



Also this album is slowly becoming a staple for commutes to and from jobs:





Down From The Wound slams like it's still the late 90's/early 00's. I liked their debut a lot, especially when it first came out, but by the time this album came out in 2014 I was well out of the brutal death metal/slam stuff and so I missed it. Personally feel like it's one of the best things to come out of the genre in the last decade. It just keeps it so sick and old school, the way slam should be.

Oh and the artwork is twisted as fuck.

I could frankly give a fuck about new Wormed, I heard like 2 minutes of whatever their last one was and didn't care; Planisphaerium is enough for me, essentially. I'm sure I'll get their other albums at some point, but definitely not a priority.

I've had that Carnal Decimate demo on repeat since I heard it, been showing everyone who'll listen hahaha. Pretty much the exact style I'm trying to emulate. New TM was decent, but nothing mindblowing. I'll hopefully be seeing them this July in Chicago with Superstition, who you should also check out if you haven't.



DFtW is super sick. I haven't listened to that one a whole lot, honestly, I primarily gravitate towards their first, so I'll need to give that one another listen for sure! Art is sick, that's why I got the shirt, too Ever check out any other Filipino BDM? Some pretty sick ones out there.

That's surprising, I think they're one of the best of the modern era, especially for the drier more clinical technical death metal stuff I like. Their debut is still their best though so we can agree there.

I'd love that as a shirt. I actually haven't intentionally searched out any Filipino stuff, feel free throw me some recommendations.

Speaking of Superstition I was actually checking out the new song they released from their upcoming album, pretty sweet:

Ooh, I like that Superstition

20 buck spin have been slinging out great stuff for so long

 

[CiG]

Woah new Witch Vomit.

 

[Krow]

20BS is the best current death metal album imo. Dark Descent is usually on top but not this year.

Headsplit is great too but they’ve been kind of being the label that releases the cassette while other ones do the cd/vinyl as of late.

@morguelord your Obscure Death Metal Gems list is monstrous. I'm only on the second page, these are the ones that I really really enjoyed so far:

Spain's answer to Deicide? ^







So far this is my favourite discovery. ^



Weird goody awesome shit! ^

 

[morguelord]

I figured you'd dig that shit man. For those who don't know, I made a massive list on RYM of only obscure death metal, albums having only 20 ratings or less, ranging from 1990 to today, check it out if you wanna find some new stuff.

Cig, I figure you'll be at that list for a while! I know a lot I've posted here before or shown you already, but there's an absurd amount of shit there. Great choices from those for sure dude. Did you know Carnal Tomb was basically Cock and Ball Torture before they decided to piss away their lives playing goregrind? Hahahaha
