Obituary - Slowly We Rot/Cause Of Death

One of the greatest death metal albums ever created.

Sepultura - Beneath The Remains

Many say it's a thrash classic and I gotta second that. Sepultura developed their music from here.

 

[MURAI]

CDs I own are mostly from the 90's but I'll buy a lot of early death/thrash metal albums by bands like Bolt Thrower, Kreator, Morbid Angel and Slayer in time.
