top of the heap death metal?

[SlaughterofSoul]

am I blind or did no one mention Carcass - "Heartwork" ?

Any OPETH.. not pure death but if you havent heard them please do.

Maybe because Heartwork is one of the most overrated metal cds ever?

And don't have anyone listen to Opeth, unless they're an insomniac.

There should be a warning on Opeth cds:
Listening to this CD my cause drowsiness. Do not play while driving or operating heavy machinery.

I thought people were supposed to name EXCEPTIONAL death metal bands? There seems to be a lot of average ones being listed.

Zyklon blackened death, definately check-out the first album anyway

[Terminus Est]

Napalm Death Death metal???
Nasum ^^^

I always find grindcore(especially ND's later albums and Nasum) to sound like a subgenre of Death Metal. That's because I've never listened to any punk or hardcore before so what kind of comparisons should I make to consider grindcore to fall into the two aforementioned genres?
