Centinex- Subconscious Lobotomy
Recorded at Studio Sunlight July 1992 Produced and mixed by Tomas Skogsberg.
Massacra-signs of the decline 1992. I already have and enjoy the first two.

I find Centinex in general to be incredibly generic and samey for all their material, so it gets neither a yay nor nay from me. I bet that helped a whole lot.
Since the band has a good ammount of albums that did not help. Bands following albums tend to sound nothing like the first one. thanks anyways

Aint that a daisy?
There was a time when VR was without Benton, but with him in the lineup, it's safe to say the band went to shit.

Yes.
Subconcious Lobotomy is the standard Swedeath affair, but still worthwhile for avid fans like ourselves.
Signs of the Decline is a slight step down in quality from Massacra's first two. There's more thrash influence, and it tends to drag near the end, but it's still good.
I've just re-discovered Tiamat's The Astral Sleep; awesome atmospheric death metal.

There is certainly a goth element in their music (especially the first three albums)... but overall they are not a "goth" band.

Dodens convince me how good early Samael is as opposed to the Ceremony of Opposites-Eternal period.

There is no universal definition for goth. Seriously this has been debated to no end.
Mort Divine
Shrine Maiden of the In-Crowd
One of the best albums period. The usage of acoustic guitars over heavy rythmn is great.

Glad you like it. I only have a couple songs I got off of their website and haven't been able to find their music anywhere.

Agreed. Comparing Dead Can Dance and Fields of the Nephilim is comparing two quite different things. Both are great bands, Fields have some quality material but I find a lot of their albums are inconsistent - containing exceptionally pants-jizzing awesome songs with ones that bore me.
A good article to find out more about similar bands and a lot of electronica is here. Click hardcore, then click EBM, and there is descriptions of different styles (industrial, industrial rock, EBM, electro industrial, futurepop, synthpop, goth, ethereal, darkwave, coldwave, experimental, darksynth - if any of these appeal to you, check the site for a list of bands and streaming samples). I've been told it's fairly accurate, so check it out. Edit: Except for the "insightful"-ly biased descriptions of genres at times, which is annoying. But listen to the tunes and get a feel for it.

For Death:
Human vs. Individual Thought Patterns: which one is better?
For Dissection:
How is The Somberlain? What about Reinkaos?
For Bloodbath:
Where should I begin?
In general:
What are some generally good death metal albums that I should check out?
If you could PM your recommendations to me, that would be much appreciated.
