All of those were great. I especially liked Miasma, are all their songs instrumental?

Wow, that was pretty fucking cool.

What does the general listening public (meaning you all) think of Marduk?

 

[DarkBliss]

This is one of those albums I would simply never, ever check out if I saw it in a shop. I guess that's where recommendations are so handy.

you'll be so much more happier once you do check out Phlebotomized. IIS should be deemed as one of the best DM albums, that has not been reviewed yet in Metal Archives. Although I do recall seeing a praising review of it there once but it's been gone for years. Here's a good source of Phlebotomized fanboyism, though:

Do you still think so? I just listened to it for the first time the other day and thought it was really great.

I dunno, I'd have to hear it again, I remember it was on Lethal Records (the same label my old band was on) and looked and sounded quite b-grade at the time. I see it's been re-released by another label, maybe it's been remixed and repackaged or something.

Really? It's insanely good death metal. What did you prefer?

I was way more into American and British DM at the time. With exceptions of course.

Thoughts on Wormed and Devourment?

I heard a track by Wormed... it was hilariously bad.

Thoughts on Wormed and Devourment?

I don't know about Wormed but Devourment are great. Slam riffs, blast beats, and guttural vocals are pretty much what they do.

no! Bad Thoth!! *slaps hand*

Wormed ruleth!

[Astrum]

Um, I see no Bolt Thrower. There must have been a mistake.

 

[CF87]

Bolt Thrower has some great albums but nothing top 10 worthy imo.

 

[Dazed and Brutal]

Bolt Thrower has some great albums but nothing top 10 worthy imo.

I think Dismember should have a place on that list, and I'm surprised to see no Entombed

 

[DarkBliss]

Um, I see no Bolt Thrower. There must have been a mistake.

Wait till Carcassian posts his. It's guaranteed to be full of Bolt Thrower, nestled neatly in the midst of Dominus, Carcass, Solstice, Runemagick and the like. They're a good band, I wouldn't say amazing though.

10. Funebre-children of the scorn

This is top-notch. Really getting into it lately.
