The best death metal band...

[SpeakUSAorDie]

Seriously. Some of you guys dont know what DEATH METAL is. Sure it's hard to classify these days EXACTLY what band is what, but come on, give the guy a fucking break.

At The Gates, is thrash to me BTW.

P.S. I voted Morbid Angel

Morbid Angel...

If In Flames and At the Gates aren't real death metal becuase they're melodic death, I don't think is more real death either. Don't get me wrong, I voted for death, but a band like Morbid Angel is real death to me. Death (the band) started out like a "regular" death metal band, but changed into a mix between progressive metal and death metal. I like Death's "Symbolic" the best, but I have only heard that, "Leprosy" and "Sound of perseverance" by Death. I like more technical stuff with catchy melodic riffs instead of just deep tones, heavy riffs with melodies you can't remember when you've heard the record 20 times.

 

[Burning Darkness]

Morbid Angel!

 

[Thanatos]

I voted for Carcass, Dismember is missing in that list

 

[JesusChristPose]

So where does Dark Tranquility fall?

 

[Thanatos]

Melodic Death Metal

 

[falling bird]

Definetely Dismember, if they were on the list i'd vote them.

Same here!

Brutalizer: You missed Dismember in your list

 

[ControlledChaos]

I can't believe I'm the only one who voted Malevolent.

Has anyone here listened to their album "retribution" (1992)?? Man, you can't deny the majesty of Malevolent...

My favs aren't up there, so I voted for Death too. Of the rest on the list, the only ones I actually like are Bolt Thrower and some Morbid Angel.
I hate Cannibal Corpse!!! (not that anyone cares)

CC is like maiden, catchy and fun for a while but with no real depth, because they trade in evolution for a known formula too.

In whose SICK mind CC would be FUNNY. I've always found them very repulsive, even though I've more or less liked a few of their songs.

I like Bloodbath though, so it's not the genre I hate, but the poor musicianship they (CC) show.

Carcass!
