death metal!

Man if only Chuck Schuldner were still around...He was the shit,Pretty much the father of DM,in my opinion.

Yeah Chuck was the man. His other band Control Denied:

Decrepit Birth, a newer band that's latest album and the upcoming one reek of Chuckness:

who likes between the buried and me?

I listen to more metal-core, hardcore

Suffocate, Emmure, Recon, For The Fallen Dreams, The Acacia Strain, Carnifex, Winds Of Plauge, Fight For Blood, KillWhitneyDead, Ligiea,


Good music.

"Death Metal" Is terrible.

Between the buried and me is amazing and have been since I got into them(silent circus era) Colors is a musical masterpiece and they are planning to top it with a new album, I can't wait. Death Metal is only terrible to those who are close minded to it. It takes a lot more talent then lots of other genres

I would have to say, Suicide Silence, is a very good band, and very heavy. I love them to death, I would say they are grindcore. Thats just my opinion, Grindcore/metal anyway.

Listen to

Chealsey Smile, Demise Of All Reason, You Breath Like A Machine, Fight For Blood.

You'll get some brutal music with redic breakdowns

Being that i was growing up in Miami, Fl during the '80s and '90s and I played in a local metal band at the time. I attended a lot of deathmetal and opened up for a lot of bands from Tampa, FL. I'm gonna kick it old school.....

Death (RIP Chuck)
Obituary
Carcass
Cynic (One of my Faves)
Athiest
Deicide
Malevolent Creation
Cannibal Corpse (very cool people)

Dig It....

What qualifies the difference between death metal, thrash, progressive, grindcore, deathcore etc.

Strapping Young Lad fucking rocks, what exactly are they considered?

I agree metal has a lot more talent than pretty much all pop, rap, and other crap. Old megadeth and shit is like listening to classical music, faster paced, and loud and in your face.

-Progressive is just an adjective that can apply to any rock/metal, it simply means that the musicians usually have more complex song structures, as well as including influences from stuff like jazz. Usually songs are longer too.

-Death Metal is a pretty broad genre since there's a lot of variations of it. The genre came from thrash. Bands I would simply call "Death Metal" would be Morbid Angel, Cannibal Corpse, Deicide, Immolation, stuff like that. Songs are usually fast but not too fast, with regular leads and growled/guttural vocals.
example: YouTube - Morbid Angel - Fall From Grace

-There is also Brutal Death Metal, which is usually faster and...well more brutal than what I would call just "death metal". Lots of blast beats, deeper, more guttural vocals (not always), heavy ass riffing. Bands in this genre include Suffocation, Disgorge, Defeated Sanity.
example: YouTube - Suffocation - Effigy Of The Forgotten

-Then there is technical death metal. Tech Death is like brutal death with more leads and guitar wanking...it's just more technical. I'd say tech death started in the mid 90s. A lot of bands will fall in both genres. Cryptopsy, Origin, Gorguts, Spawn of Possession and Necrophagist are some examples of artists.
example: YouTube - Origin - The Aftermath

-Thrash is the original extreme metal, it was really popular in the late 80s. The vocals are usually higher and not growled. There's a lot of shrieking guitar solos and fast riffing, usually they don't tune down as low as death metal...thrash is like early Metallica, Slayer, Kreator.
example: YouTube - Kreator - Awakening of the Gods

-Grindcore is hard to describe...it's fast, but not really technical. Honestly I don't listen to a lot of it with the exception of the standout artists. I'm going to include Deathgrind and Goregrind in here too cause I'm lazy. Deathgrind and Goregrind are like Grindcore and Death metal combined, Deathgrind is usually more complex...Goregrind is usually really fucked up subjects about gore and rape and shit. The guitars sound like shit cause they're suppose to. The vocals are pretty diverse usually screaming or growling. Artists include (early) Carcass, Agoraphobic Nosebleed, Napalm Death.
Grindcore/Goregrind ex: YouTube - Carcass - Reek of Putrefaction
Deathgrind ex: YouTube - Cephalic Carnage - Lucid Interval

-Metalcore and Deathcore are pretty straight forward. Metalcore is like a metal'd up version of hardcore punk with a lot of breakdowns. Deathcore is metalcore with death metal and more "bree bree" vocals. Metalcore bands are like Ion Dissonance and Atreyu. Deathcore bands are stuff like Suicide Silence, All Shall Perish, and As Blood Runs Black.
Metalcore ex: YouTube - Trivium - Dying In Your Arms
Deathcore ex: YouTube - All Shall Perish - There is no Business to be Done On A Dead

-There's also black metal, which pretty much came at the same time as thrash. And blackened death metal which is mixing death and black metal. Ya'll can research those on your own cause I just wrote a shitload about extreme metal...

jesus christ I got tricked into listening to nintendocore once,
fucking ridiculous is all i have to say

Damn, thanks, I'd rep you if I didn't just do so.

I fully understand it now...

I hate Metalcore, whining vocals, dislike traditional "death metal" I can't listen to Cannibal Corpse, doesn't sound like music. Grindcore sounds terrible.

Funny, when I'm at the record store, they're all filed under "metal" so it's hard to find decent bands that I'll like... Like something with some skill.

I like thrash, progressive, dark metal (even though you don't describe it) I think it's what comes from Finland and Norway... Thanks again Lord Bluntmasta somebody rep him for me

Yeah finland and norway churn out the black metal. Immortal, OMC, Nokturnal Mortem, Emperor, are my favs, all good stuff.

I also forgot to mention Melodic Death metal. This is stuff like Dark Tranquility, children of bodom and later Carcass (totally different from their grindcore stuff)

my favourite DM band is DEATH, unsurprisingly i sure. Favourite death albums would have to be HUMAN and INDIVIDUAL THOUGHT PATTERNS though LEPROSY is close behind. What are yours eh? other DM bands i like just to list a few= Necrophagist, Athiest(elements is a buzzy album), Obituary, Carcass, Morbid Angle, Deicide, Pig destroyer(grindcore), Cryptopsy, Cynic, Cephalic Carnage(techdeath) and my very own band Bruer Grinder, actually i would pay money not to listen to bruer grinder, i think ill quit. But for me, as lame as it sounds, stoner rock and funk really takes the cake for me.

oh yea btw Electric Wizard fuuuuckn ruuule bro

My favorite Death albums gotta be Human and Symbolic, but Leprosy is definitely one of my favorites. ITP probably my 3rd, but Perennial Quest makes Symbolic take the cake for me. Human also has my favorite lineup, with SDG on bass with the guys from cynic on 2nd guitar and drums.

and I do love me some stoner metal

not really into the death metal.. i can't understand any of it.. I mean, unless you mean bands like archenemy and lamb of god.. they're badass.. but i'm just not into cannible corpse or any of those bands.. slayer has some good songs...

I'm just sitting here thinking, don't it sucks when someone says "hey man, what kinda music do you like?".. like you're supposed to have a genre that you listen to.. I listen to everything.. I grew up on shit like, Micheal Bolton, Ottis Redding, Ray charles, Elvis, the eagles, bob Seager, Tom Petty, the Beatles, Vince Gill, Randy Travis and shit like that..

So now.. thats kinda me.. I like slipknot and archenemy.. mudvayne.. chimara.. but I also like Vince Gill, Jonny Lang, Teddy Pendergrass, Marvin Gaye, Harold and The blue Notes, The chilite's.. I dunno.. im all over the board.. like now, the most played shit in my play list is disturbed, guns n' roses, Vince Gill, Nightwish, therion and of course, Teddy P... "TURN 'EM OFF!!!".. so.. i dunno.. i just had that thought... anybody else like that?

Been playing Malevolent Creation a lot lately...

The Ten Commandments has to be in my top 10 metal albums
Gotta love some old school DM

I'm just saying...they're completely different. Metalcore has a totally different vocal style and both metalcore and deathcore have all of those annoying ass hardcore breakdowns that all sound the same, and the only leads are a a bunch of simple 5 string sweeps played sloppy as fuck

the only decent Deathcore/metalcore around are probably despised icon and beneath the massacre (first ep)

Click to expand...

animosity is damn good as well
beneath the massacre/despised icon are damn good
new faceless album is really good

thread needs some lovin
