Beware of the dark arts Mystic...

 

WHY fairlight ?

 

Only kidding!

 

Celtic Frost are good...Not really death metal but they are good metal.

 

Morning mystic....strange to see you on the forum

Dunno if this is really 'Death Metal' ...but I listened to this when I was around 15.

Death

I love too many death metal bands to have one standout favourite, but here are some classics from some of my favourite bands in the genre.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b4qQD4Ha88U"]ENTOMBED - SINNERS BLEED - YouTube

I've got to go with Entombed as well! I am really not into death metal in general though. OP seems to be new to it too since Cradle of filth and Immortal aren't death metal bands.

 

Cannibal Corpse \m/

Also Get the album winds of creation by decapitated

Ah yes, good old Cannibal Corpse! A very consistent band for sure. Here's two CC classics, one from the first album, and also a great one from their latest album!

And yep, Asmodean is right. Neither Immortal or COF are death metal bands.

 

Mystic, if you like those bands you also need to listen to Job For A Cowboy and The Black Dahlia Murder. The Ritual album by TBDM is the best, and JFAC have made 2 awesome albums.

 

Second that. Sound of Perserverance still my favorite death metal album

Next on the ladder would be Morbid Angel

I love every album that Death ever made. And I love the primal, visceral brutality of the genre defining first album equally as much as their prog/tech death sound of the later albums. Here's two very different sides of Death, but both equally brilliant.

Fear Factory
Aborted
Benighted
