Such a same some of these bands don't have more
Cartilage - among some poorly produced demos, they released a split album with Altar entitled Ex Oblivione/The Fragile Concept of Affection which, with only 7 songs by cartilage, is easliest on the best things I have in my collection. They have a strong finnish death metal style in terms of tone and rythm which while being somewhat catchy stays somewhat eradic in transistions. The variety never seizes to amaze while the somewhat sloppy nature only adds to the abrasiveness that shoudl be present with anything old and obscure. An odd experience all and all and maybe the underwhelming charecteristics of the prodcution only adds to the appeal.
Mefisto - An influential thrash/black metal band from Sweden. Though besides the point, they're cool to throw out if you're trying to impressive the elitists (for the amateurs out there). The music is superb, hovering over speed, thrash, black, and even death metal. Being so old you can be assured it holds no loyalty to any "scene" other than being totally fucking heavy. Often times I find any genres that have thrash tendencies that lean towards extreme genre while still showing signs of thrash tend to be the heaviest and it holds true for Mefisto! Cha-check it out yall!
Demilich - Duh!
And thousands of other old school death metal bands...
edit: You're allowed to say some tooooooo
