What is some good Death Metal?

What are some great Death Metal Bands? Cause I just recently got into death metal, and i really like Death and early Morbid Angel (from what I've heard). I guess just give like 3 or four of your favorites, and I'll try to check out most of them.

Nile

Okay, I'll check into them. Any songs or albums in particular?

Monstrosity (any albums)

DEATH - Individual Thought Patterns, Leprosy, Symbolic, Spiritual Healing, Human
MORBID ANGEL - Blessed are the Sick, Covenant
MONSTROSITY - In Dark Purity, Millennium, Rise to Power
SUFFOCATION - Pierced from Within
CANNIBAL CORPSE - The Bleeding
SINISTER - Aggressive Measures

Thanks guys, and ToB the only ones I'm familiar with in your list is Death, and some of Morbid Angel. I know Cannibal Corpse but have never really checked into their material. But I'll look em up. And I'll look up Monstrosity too.

Quo Vadis
Immolation
Benediction

Cynic
Obituary
Athiest
Nocturnus
Impetigo
Massacre
Death
Bolt thrower
Macabre
Autopsy
Cancer


Some of my favs. Also theres this really obscure Tampa band called Demented ted that put out an album that was pretty cool in the early/mid 90s. You can find it on amazon for a few bucks usually.

Miseration - The Mirroring Shadow
Suffocation - Blood Oath
Krisiun - Southern Storm

I've been looking at a lot of these. Looks like i need to save some money for some cd's! I really like Cannibal Corpse- The Bleeding, Massacre-Cryptic Realms, and almost every song I've heard by Monstrosity i have loved.

CYNIC - Focus is another essential one.

Some not listed yet:

Entombed - Left Hand Path, Clandestine
Asphyx - The Rack
Behemoth - Demigod, The Apostasy, Evangelion
Hypocrisy - Penetralia, Osculum Obscenum
Bolt Thrower - War Master
Gorguts - Considered Dead, The Erosion of Sanity

i would also add to these fine lists:

spawn of possession - noctambulant
sympathy - arcane path
vader - litany
possessed - seven churches
malevolent creation - envenomed

Oh yeah, check out Hail of Bullets too.

Old Malevolent Creation is the best.

DARK MILLENNIUM - Ashore the Celestial Burden
PESTILENCE - Testimony of the Ancients / Spheres
NOCTURNUS - Thresholds
ATHEIST - Unquestionable Presence
ENTOMBED - Clandestine
AMORPHIS - Tales from the 1000 Lakes

Though I'm not much into death metal, Atheist's Piece of Time is a pretty good album

here's a few good ones for you to try...

Putrefy - Putrefy
Krig - Target: Human Mission: Destroy
Extirpated - Decomposition & Decay
Heaps of Dead - Deceased, Dismembered and Left to Decay
Pathology - Age of Onset
Origin - Antithesis
Awaiting the Autopsy - Couldn't Tell the Bodies Apart
Suffocation - Pierced from Within
Eden Beast - Passivity Causes Genocide
Hackneyed - Death Prevails
Disgorge - Consume the Forsaken
Skinless - Trample the Weak, Hurdle the Dead
Immolation - Here in After
Coathanger Abortion - Dying Breed
Mutilated - Devirginated Genital Pulp
Putrid Pile - House of Dementia
Devourment - Unleash the Carnivore
Mortician - Chainsaw Dismemberment
Syphilic - Symphony of Slit Throats
Truculency - Eviscerate the Paraplegic

Here are some I dig;

Obituary-Slowly We Rot
Entombed-Wolverine Blues
Ethereal Scourge-Judgment and Restoration
Mortification-S/T
Death-The Sound Of Perseverance
Atheist-Piece of Time

I'm on a big Obituary kick right now, so go with the first three records at least. Might want to check out Mortician and Incantation.

Cynic's focus; anything by Atheist or Death; Children of Bodom's Hate Crew Deathroll; Behemoth's Zos Kia Cultus & Demigod; and anything by Carcass (their earlier stuff is grindcore, their later stuff is more melodic death).

Bolt Thrower and Obituary

I like death metal that has more of a groove to it. Like this...

NOT death metal, in any way shape or form!

Melodeath? I guess that's where I'd stick them.

What about what I posted? I thought Furbowl was pushing it. But man, that is such a bad-ass tune.
