Top Ten Death Metal Questions to Ask Users of TheTopTens
It's easy, Death. Possessed is a good band, but no Death Metal band will ever match Death. Chuck has the most distinctive and best voice, and they are very technical and almost progressive
I am glad this one is here. Possessed are the most underrated, and in my opinion, the best, death metal band.
Of course it is Death but Possessed were too short lived.
Two of the pioneers of death metal.
For me it's corpsegrinder. I can only handle Chris Barnes in small doses, like in early Cannibal and Six Feet Under
Corpsegrinder. I think some of CC's best stuff has come in their later years with Corpsegrinder.
Corpsegrinder has a stronger voice
But Chris Barnes' lyrics are the most kickass
Decide. Cannibal Corpse are overrated.
Both...really I can't choose
Deicide to be honest
I can listen to Nile all day. Atheist is a great band too though
Atheist on Nile from a great height!
Lack of Comprehension - Death
Some runners up are
Crystal Mountain - Death
Annihilation of the Wicked - Nile
Dead by Dawn - Deicide
Death! Cattle Decapitation is a close second though
Well, I know I will get hate for this, but... Possessed!
I prefer the old school Death Metal like Death, Morbid Angel, Possessed, Cannibal Corpse, Obituary, Deicide, etc. But I love Slam Death, Blackened Death, melodic, deathgrind, and Prog/Tech Death
I prefer mainly brutal death metal.
Unquestionable Presence by Atheist, Symbolic & Human by Death, Pathetic Being by Sceptic, The Armageddon Theories by Theory in Practice, Focus by Cynic, Process of A New Decline by Gorod, Art Bleeds by Gory Blister, Destroy the Opposition by Dying Fetus...there are so many excellent ones!
I would say Symbolic by Death. Yeah, it's cliche but I don't care. Runner up would be Monolith of Inhumanity by Cattle Decapitation
I love you by Barney the Purple Dinosaur wait sorry wrong one I meant Still Life by Opeth
There are so many! I'd say Human, Symbolic, and The Sound of Perseverance by Death.
Both fabulous. But I say Obituary because they've been better in recent years.
Morbid Angel easily, but Obituary is a great band
No one does slow, creeping riffs like obituary
Cryptopsy are better overall but Destroy the Opposition destroys all albums from both bands.
Despite their name, Dying Fetus is an awesome band, that's my answer
I also prefer Amon Amarth but I'm really curious how Jeff Loomis will change Arch Enemy (if any). Jeff just joined Arch Enemy.
ARCH ENEMY! Their singer is badass! And especially their newest songs!
Amon Amarth. As cool as Arch Enemy is, I think I they are overrated
I like Brain Drill, but they are nothing compared to Nile
American technical death metal bands.
Melodic death metal bands from Finland.
Children of Bodom, no question about it
I can't pick. They're just too good.
Both of it or maybe some new kind of lyric theme
Satan, aren't you supposed to be in Hell?
I prefer originality
Check with slam. Either Dehumanizing Itatrain Worship or Crepitation.
Abominable Putridity or Dying Fetus
Obscura are better songwriters in my opinion and, while less brutal, are more interesting.
Obscura is actually a very good band...but Necrophagist
I like Necrophagist, Never heard Obscura though
Obscura because they got me into progressive stuff and they sound better
than Necrophagist.
I was never too crazy about Gorguts. So I'll go with Cryptopsy
Canadian death metal bands.
This one is tough. But I'll go with Cryptopsy
Canadian death metal bands.
Kataklysm got me into (melodic) death metal
but Crytopsy is in my opinion better.
Cattle Decapitation! One of my all time favorites
I like both of them.
No. I don't like deathcore, I hate the way people mosh to it. But there is originality
Not all. There's good and bad bands in every subgenre.
Slam riffs mainly because I like slam too.
Slam Riffs. I'm not a deathcore fan
Slam Riffs because they are heavier
and aren't that "angry kid"-like
Brutal hands down.
Two female-fronted death metal bands.
