Need some Old Death Metal recommendations

[AdamCymru86]

Right then people recently been getting back in Death Metal. Been listening to loads of old Death Metal stuff, stuff like Possessed, Death, Atheist, Master, Death Strike, Sadus, Autopsy, Epidemic. So could anyone give me a few more bands to listen to.

 

[sixxswine]

Immolation
Six Feet Under
Arch Enemy
Torture

 

[Priest of Evil]

Yeah Immolation - Dawn of Possession is a must! I'll pass on the next two, dont know Torture so no comment.

The early Swedish (Stockholm style) Carnage, Entombed, Dismember, Grave is all quality death metal.

 

[Priest of Evil]

Great list^
I'll bump Necrophobic to the top of your list because I'm a self confessed Swedofile.
Next favourites are - Unanimated, Sentenced, Bolt Thrower and Morgoth

Angel Corpse
Bolt Thrower

I'd add Nocturnus - Thresholds, if you're into technical atmospheric death metal.

Depends what you'd define as newer Death Metal. I mean for a long time I've been into Nile, Krisiun, Mithras, Bolt Thrower, Aborted, Behemoth, Cryptopsy, very early Arch Enemy, Malevolent Creation, Origin, Necrophagist etc... but I went off it and started listening to a lot of Folk Metal, but recently started getting back into it but only the very early stuff.

 

[Pabla]

[Break Zero]

YES!!
Probably in the top 5 favorite Death Metal albums.

I should be paying attention to this. I seem to find myself only really attracted to the old shit when it comes to Death Metal.

Sort of death metal, sort of not...... this is OLDSCHOOOL... Hallow's Eve. Probably more thrash than death, but the vocalist sort of helped pioneer the "dirty" vocals.

[Fangface]

Bloodbath

Recommended indeed

 

[MURAI]

OS death metal well....

Malevolent Creation-StillBorn and Retribution
Entombed up to Wolverine Blues even though i have heard there last 3 cds
are good.
Necrophagia-Season Of The Dead

Still Born is pretty good even though I read the band themselves aren't too proud of it because it was rushed. Which explains the thin production and how the vocals sounded rather forced in parts.

Morning Star by Entombed is great.

I feel Necrophagia is pretty tacky.

I meant death metal from around the late 90's to early 2000s. So in that list, it will be Origin and Aborted.

 

[nyhc7163]

Suffocation-effigy of the forgotten
deicide-s/t
obituary-cause of death
morbid angel-alters of madness
cannibal corpse-eaten back to life

 

[Barbarian lord]

RESURRECTION-Embalmed Existence
BROKEN HOPE-The Loathing
NOCTURNUS-Thresholds
BOLT THROWER-The IV Crusade
IMMOLATION-Harnessing Ruin
AT THE GATES-Slaughter of the soul
AMON AMARTH-Versus the world,etc.
To many good names but I love Death metal in the 90's...old good days for Death metal without growl/clean vocals with industrial synthetic sound and Nu looks,like modern Death "metal" is today.

Tampa,Florida-BIRTHPLACE of pure Death Metal!!!
