Incantation, Immolation, Goreaphobia, Morpheus Descends, Nunslaughter, Dr Shrinker, Autopsy, Repulsion, Master, and the like, anyone here dig that old haunting death metal sound they ripped out?

Vader, some Krisiun, even though their drummer is fucking annoying.

Too right. Krisiun get extremely annoying.

I liked Krisiun when I began listening to death metal, but I lost interest over the years as I discovered Blink 182.

To answer your question, yes I usually like old school death metal.

On Black Force Domain I kind of like the vocals, and the guitars are okay, I just hate that stupid one-speed double bass machine! You can even tell when they pause the machine and make it start again. Its like they use an on/off switch for double bass. :smash:

My friend is obsessed with The Chasm. I find them meerly adequate. Good but not spectacular.

Some excellant old school DM is Nocturnus - The Key.

In other news: Yes is a spectacular band.

Cenotaph. It used to have the vocalist from The Chasm. They're pretty old-school.
and Cadaver, Inc. too.

It depends on the band. A lot of "old school death" consists of slow, poorly produced, power-chord frenzy bullshit that I hate with a passion. Old Morbid Angel and Possessed is great shit. If you've ever heard Necrophagia's original album (which sounds noting like the bullshit Phil Anselmo Necrophagia of today), that's definitely old school death metal, it's not great, but it's not bad either. I'm not a big fan of Scream Bloody Gore, it was Death's worst album if you ask me. Spiritual Healing was their first good album, Leprosy was okay, but nothing special. I also have a shitload of old Death demos and bootlegs (pre-Scream Bloody Gore), and they aren't very good. Death metal is a lot better today and around the mid-90's than it was in the mid-late 80's.

I'm a huge fan of the first albums of Malevolent Creation, Monstrosity, Vader (plus Vader's demos), Carcass, Deicide, and Krisiun. I also love Atheist's and Cynic's demos, great stuff.

whats wrong with krisiun? the drumming rules, if not for the stamina the guy has to have to do 250 DB for 6 minutes along with a blast for 4, the other 2 being a 3 quarter speed blast.

SFU aren't death metal at all, nevermind old school death metal. They started in the mid 90's.

Old school death?!!! someone forgot to mention Dismember, Dissinter, Suffocation, Abscess, NEcrophagia, Coercion, Morbid ANgel.. etc..

All those bands in the ol' days are fucking awesome... But old school tends to get pretty slow.. Autopsy, I never really liked Autopsy. Coercion arent really old, but their style is old school.

Bones98
2004-11-05, 09:56
ohh also Amorphis's stuff fucking owned,man. The new stuff is really retarded, I dont know what got into their minds about making some weird mix of rock and power metal together with dramatic keyboards.. But anyway, check Amorphis out, also Brutality own the shit out of u guys.. There were so many brutal bands in the old days that can actually compete with the new blasphemous death metal.

finally someone remembered Suffocation, good job. old Gorguts is pretty old school death as well.

i haven't heard any Amorphis before Elegy, but i wouldn't call them death...maybe death-folk-rock...and nevermind the new stuff, its OK, but its not Amorphis.
