Even though I like some death metal now, the first death metal song I heard was Cannibal Corpse's Entrails Ripped From a Virgins Cunt, and I thought it was fucking terrible.
The first time you listened to death metal

I kept hearing Death on the radio during the metal programs. I thought that the music was great, but the vocals pissed me off. Control Denied held me over, but I needed more, and Death and Opeth were my first targets. The vocals really fit them, and I just accepted them as a form of expression and emotion.
at the lyrics of that song, and the whole album.

actually, i don't remember what song, or band for that matter, it was when i first heard death metal. if you consider Fear Factory's early material death metal (or influenced by it), than it was that back in spring 2000, but from there, i'm not sure.

i guess for me it was Death's Scream Bloody Gore. I didn't listen to much after that. Now, I only listen to the most progressive of death metal now, and mostly progressive/symphonic/technical metal.
Hey, we all have a death metal history, everyone of us started with a big DM band and was laughing at it. But now "nobody's laughing here".
Death Metal is my best metal genre....and will always be.

:zombie: The first actual 'death metal' song I heard was Morbid Angel- 'Rapture.' Initially, I wasn't very fond of it.
9 tracks later, when listening to 'God of Emptiness,' it finally clicked.

The first Death Metal I heard was probably in '90 or '91 and it was albums like Napalm Death's "Harmony Corruption", Death's "Leprosy" and "Spiritual Healing".

It was around '93. i was a big fan of Pantera, Metallica, Slayer and such bands then. One time, a local rock radio station played Sepultura's cover of Symptom of the universe and i was like ''Goddamn!, this is fucking heavy! Then they played Arise next and was totally blown away. I started waiting for the song to be played again and then... They played Cannibal Corpse's cover of Black Sabbath-Zero the Hero and thought... ''Fuck!'' Been a fan since!

Well, I know. I just find "pure" death metal for the most part - like, with the exception of say early Morbid Angel - to be sort of bland to me... The closest to it I listen to is Death and Extol who of course are still considered death metal, but still a bit different. Just how my tastes go though...... I prefer the more progressive or technical DM....with still intelligent lyrics :zombie:
