The god-damned Death Metal thread

Oh Hi! 
I'm sure some of us here like to listen to the most badass form of music so why not share our recent finds with others, eh?
 
Here's what I've been listening to lately. 
       

I prefer deathcore to actual death metal, so I won't post here. I feel like I won't be wanted :)

Im extremely picky when it comes to straightforward death metal, but ye, its awesome, it's scientifically proven to make your facial hair grow faster when you listen to it [citation needed]
 

>death metal
>good
pick one
 
on a more serious note. i must say you go from one end to another with those two video. personally i wouldn't connct gojira at all with death metal. death is the shit though if you're into that kind of thing. also before this turn into a lynching let me just clarify that i rarely listen to death metal, and when i do it's most of the time very much ironically. also autopsy is awesome.
 
just to add to the conversation i'll say that pig destroyer is probably the one band i listen to regularly which is the most like death metal. other than that i tend to be more into stuff that could be considered "core", like cock and ball torture,  old napalm death, agoraphobic nosebleed and the like. i don't really believe in core though. the term just has hipster written all over it.

I think Just Bieber is pretty metal.

I find all the "core" and "grind" styles ridiculous myself, but there's no need to turn this into a fight topic.
 
Post whatever extreme metal you like then. From crazy industrial to grindcores and whatnots. 
Black metal is very welcome too. 
And Melodic Death Metal is especially welcome. 
 
  

Germans do Metal well too it turns out. 
  

Pig Destroyer - Piss Angel (grind i guess. fast as all hell. nevermind the video, it makes me cringe.)   

Opeth. 
 
/thread

I tend to lean towards power metal like Hammerfall/Avantasia or crazy emotional stuff like Otep, but I can appreciate some bands of the genre.

Gorod is my favorite recent tech death band. Ares Kingdom had a solid release last year.I thought the new Atheist and Autopsy albums were good despite mindless criticism by people who don't know what they're talking about.  More of an old school Morbid Angel, Obituary fan myself.

 

Ah hell, I'll post some deathcore. 
 
  

I just started actually liking Death Metal music in the past year.  So far I really like Amon Amarth and Abnormality's new EP. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

The lack of Nile in this thread is disturbing.
My favourite death metal band and straight up band for the past 8 or so years, if you want death metal then look no further, they're just fucking brilliant.
  

Gotta mention Psycroptic. 
 
Incredible band and they're from my town :P 
 
  

any fans of swedish death metal here in giantbomb? 
 
  

i prefer Progressive/Thrash/Power/Stoner/Symphonic/Industrial, but sure i love Death aswell 

The Faceless.

"   

  Maybe not death metal, but was just listening to this when I saw this thread "

  If we're speaking strictly death metal...

Probably too mainstream for this crowd, but I do like me some Lamb of God.

  I don't listen to that much death anymore but Vader and Immolation are always in my library.

I listen to Sepultura, Chaos AD and Arise thier best albums. I think they have moved away from death metal but still great to listen to,

Metal! \m/
Something random from my playlist at the moment. Not really deathmetal though, but still...:
 
  

" @EvilKatarn:

"
Boris - Naki Kyoku (stoner metal from japan. chill as fuck.)   

   There's a few differant genres. I say at least give boris a shot. they're so god damn cool. and wata is the sexiest lady with a guitar. "

I'll take your Boris and raise Harvey Milk.

The lack of Black Metal makes me sad. 
 
But I kind of grew out of metal a long time ago, which annoys me somewhat.
I now generally listen to anything with crazy time signatures and complex rhythms. 
And Black Metal.

Lots of good stuff in this thread! Personally, I have mostly been listening to folk metal these days. 
 
 EDIT: someone already posted that song, so I'll post one of my favorites 

     

MAAAAARCH! 
 
  

I bring you Canadian samples! 
  

While the title of the topic clearly says 'Death Metal', there's actually little Death Metal here.
 
So, the three most impressive Death Metal bands that came me out 'recently':
 
  

DEATH ROCKS OKAY THANKS

" @raphaa00: Portal is some crazy shit. When I first heard it was nighttime and I was in bed listening to my iPod. Goddang nearly scared the crap outta me.  Really speaks about the music, when it makes you feel so insecure and uncomfortable. It's still hard to listen, but I quite enjoy it now. "

I've been listening to a lot of Hypocrisy lately. The Arrival is such an insanely catchy album. It might be a bit too melodic for death metal purists, but damn if it isn't awesome. The whole "alien abduction" theme they got going on lyrically is pretty cool too. You don't get that too often in death metal.
