Recommend me some Emotional Death Metal

[Dazed and Brutal]

Listen to Dark Tranquility. They usually to a good job of touching my feelings without it sounding too gay.

 

[DarkBliss]

Maybe the best list...

Yep, definitely is, although I find Cenotaph quite challenging to get into. Gloomy Recollections... for instance sounds quite interesting in places, but the songs are too hard to follow and the production makes it even less acessible. But it's definitely worth hunting down if you're a fan of Deathcult

I'd third J's recommendation for Mindrot too. Both full-lengths are worth getting. Their debut Dawning is among my favorites

 

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

I've got a couple more:

Gorod
Disarmonia Mundi (first album only)
Anata (first album)
Omnium Gatherum
Scythe
Vore

 

[Vacant_Planets]

Gorod is good, I like the first 3 Anata albums, new one is very weak.

 

[Death Aflame]

I am surprised this thread is still around. Thanks for all the recommendations, I'll try and check out as many as I can.

 

[ResistExistence]

"cry my name" from bloodbath is quite emotional
~gR~

Great song.

 

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

Gorod is good, I like the first 3 Anata albums, new one is very weak.

What no the new Anata is their most "emotional" since the first imo.

 

[Vacant_Planets]

What no the new Anata is their most "emotional" since the first imo.

Most emotional yes, but overall, everything considered (guitar, drum work, vocals, production, song writing) it seems weak compared to the others.

 

[Death Aflame]

I checked out that Cenotaph album and I am currently listening to Creepmime's Shadows.

I didn't like the Cenotaph album much on first listen, the production is just really, really muddy so I couldn't get much out of it. I'll give it some more spins before I completely write it off though.

 

[Blue_Jay]

lol it seems this thread has turned from death metal recommendations to doom metal recommendations.

Well I can recommend bands but I am sure you would have heard it all before.

 

[hibernal_dream]

Novembers Doom, or any My DyIng Bride minus the 34.788% album. Not sure what the band was trying to do?? Also old Anethema.

Hmm? 34.788% may just be their most emotional album.

 

[Killbot]

October Tide is the correct answer.

 

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

Most emotional yes, but overall, everything considered (guitar, drum work, vocals, production, song writing) it seems weak compared to the others.

The drumming is fantastic.

 

[Zephyrus]

Opeth?

 

[skeptik]

No?

 

[metal_wrath]

Yes.

 

[DarkBliss]

Opeth?

Well, you would think that he was already familiar with them.

 

[skeptik]

Opeth is irrelevant because the band doesn't play Death Metal, not because of the band's popularity.

 

[DarkBliss]

That too. Besides, there are better alternatives

 

[metal_wrath]

Opeth is irrelevant because the band doesn't play Death Metal, not because of the band's popularity.

Opeth DOES play death metal, and they have IMO the best DEath MEtAL vocalist. As to their popularity, that is irrelevant...
