GMD Votes: Top Death Metal Album prelims

[no country for old wainds]

that's not how the thread works, greys.

 

[The Ozzman]

That's how I'm numbering his.

 

[Jimmy... Dead.]

Asphyx's Last One on Earth is some solid death/doom. Just sayin'

Definitely. Not quite top-25 for me on the day I compiled my list, but definitely close along with Malevolent Creation's Retribution and a couple of others that people have mentioned. On a different day, maybe they make my list.

 

[The Ozzman]

Malevolent Creation made two of the best death metal albums ever

 

[Pagan Savior]

Their early material especially is definitely very underrated imo. First couple albums absolutely rip

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

Yeah, early MC is good stuff.

edit: Oh and The Rack > Last One On Earth

[TechnicalBarbarity]

list

edit: nm, i don't wanna be the asshole that starts nitpicking genres again.

Also, you're list looks kind of similar to morts. Hmmmm.

 

[KafkaX]

EDIT:

I did this wrong...

We can pick any death metal albums? We dont have a pre determined list to choose from?

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

Nope. Just your top 15-25 albums.

 

[KafkaX]

Ah, gotcha.

Cut the list short in hopes to make the deadline....


EDIT: Updated. Tried to keep to 1 album per band, even though it wasnt required. At one point it was too difficult to place certain albums above others and just started making a list of my favorite albums. Cant spend too much time on this at work...

2. Suffocation - Pierced From Within
3. Cryptopsy - None So Vile
4. Bolt Thrower - Realm of Chaos

[Jimmy... Dead.]

Dying. Fetus. really? that's quite a surprise no?

 

[Jimmy... Dead.]

I never really understood all the praise The Red in the Sky is Ours gets. What am I missing? What are the stand out tracks that might change my mind?

 

[KafkaX]

Its a not a surprise to me, thats my favorite Death Metal album.

And I agree with RitS. I never really dug much AtG much, tbh.

 

[The Ozzman]

Destroy the Opposition is sick. Nice choice. I also don't understand the hype for AtG in general. Terminal Spirit Disease is the best thing the band did anyway.

I'll actually keep the thread open for another day.

 

[KafkaX]

Fuck yeah, thanks Ozz.

Ill revise/add to my list later so dont count that shit just yet. I just wanted to get something in before the deadline.

 

[Pagan Savior]

I find AtG awesome to listen to every now and again, but I can't listen to any album of theirs on repeat. I guess I just got a little bored of their formula after a while.

 

[Jimmy... Dead.]

Where does older Decapitated fall. Wonder if anyone has them in their top 25
