epic death metal

[Ator]

I'm looking for any death metal that's epic. It doesn't have to be strictly death metal, just extreme(but I'm not looking for symphonic BM)

 

[youdontknowme]

um, Bolt Thrower's later albums maybe?

 

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

Mithras - Worlds Beyond The Veil

Why would we give you symphonic black metal if you asked for death?

Anyway...

Amon Amarth, maybe? Also older Amorphis.

Doesn't get much more epic than the Eastern Front.

 

[challenge_everything]

Primordial.

 

[Lifewithoutpain]

Nile, Behemoth

 

[mutantllama]

+1 on Nile, and Amon Amarth

 

[Nehebkau]

Septic Flesh - Communion maybe?

 

[Dak]

Epic is kind of a vague term. Could you give any death metal bands/albums you consider epic as reference?

 

[tagradh]

Mithras - Worlds Beyond The Veil

: ))

I've seen them live more times than U!12

 

[Hypnos]

Bolt Thrower, Nile, Amon Amarth, Agressor

 

[Einherjar86]

Not completely death metal, but I'd also suggest Deströyer 666.

The Chasm
Lykathea Aflame

 

[Ator]

thanks for the recs so far
I was intentionally vague with "epic" because I want some new sounds-stuff like Nile, Amon Amarth, Vital Remains are all epic in very different ways.
So far, I'm really digging Mithras.

 

[FJChaos]

Dark Tranquillity
Behemoth

Guys, Ator is my buddy and for purposes of recs you can assume he's familiar with more or less every band I am, so stuff like Nile, Amon Amarth, Behemoth, etc won't do it.

Bolt Thrower is a good rec, btw. I told you to check 'em out, man.

 

[Rumpole]

Grenade - The Howling Damned

If you're into the really extreme shit, check out Cannibal Corpse.

Also, I'd recommend Lamb of God and Kreator.
