Death. Death was an American Death Metal band formed in 1. Chuck Schuldiner. Death is considered to be one of the most influential bands in heavy metal and a pioneering force in death metal.

Some of best death bands are death, morbid angel, cancer, massacre, autopsy, deicide, obituary, cc, suffocation, unleashed, grave, dismember, bloodbath, carcass, asphyx, demonical, monstrosity, disincarnate, malevolent creation, the old schools the best and majority r from Florida where it all started with death. Chuck is pretty much my biggest idol ever. I almost cried when I learned of this dudes death, just think about the possibilities had he still been alive.
I bet Control Denied would've been only one of many epic side projects and experiments. Also I consider his voice to be in a whole category by itself, to be honest I'm having a hard time enjoying growl, Chuck's delivery is more of a scream and it's hard to appreciate generic Death Metal vocals having heard Chuck's insane vocal sound, ya know what? I bet that throat bled, which almost makes it all the more impressive and beautiful, poetic even, that's true . The band is known for their graphic album covers, explicitly violent lyrics and song titles like . Brutal blast beats, amazing vocal performances by both Barnes and Corpsegrinder and also some of the greatest artwork, riffs, albums, songs and even album/song names ever (F***** With A Knife, Hammer Smashed Face, Raped By The Beast and Make Them Suffer are amazing song names). This is why CC should be first.
Death created the genre but Cannibal Corpse took it even further and is much more of an inspiration for the newer DM bands than Death. Hammer smashed face, make them suffer are the real death metal songs. The real brutality, hate, violence is cannibal corpse. The slasher lyrics is like AHH! Why Children of bodom is so high? Cannibal Corpse is much more greatness than this childs. Very nice bands, how can I admire for cannibal corpse I don't know..
V5. 7 Comments. 3Morbid Angel. Morbid Angel is an American death metal band based in Tampa, Florida. UK music magazine Terrorizer ranked Morbid Angel's 1. Altars of Madness first in its list . They have made this genre. Actually death was first true death metal band.
But MA's contribution cannot be ignored. Co. B 1. 7percent, In Flames 1. Morbid Angel 6percent are on crack dudes? Or you have not taste in music? Morbid Angel should be number one, I feel Formulas Fatal to the Flesh is one of the greatest albums in all music. A co- inventor of death- metal, they also invented nu- metal and djent without realizing it (God of Emptiness) also a new style of industrial dance metal (Destructos).
Evil melodies, great videos, they should be number 1. V1. 7 Comments. 4Children of Bodom. Children Of Bodom is a melodic death metal band from Espoo, Finland. Formed in 1. 99. 3, the group currently consists of Alexi Laiho, Janne Wirman, Henkka Sepp. They totally deserve to be number one because everything they make sounds AMAZING! This band is my favorite death metal band! But my judgement is not bias and clouded.

They sounds very melodious than others.. Alexi laiho is the best sweep riffing player along with rest members of the band.. I love much to listen their song. V4. 1 Comments. 5Nile. Nile is an American technical death metal band from Greenville, South Carolina, United States, formed in 1. Their music and lyrics are inspired by Ancient Egyptian/Near Eastern mysticism, history, religion, and ancient art, as well as the works of H. P. Lovecraft. Karl Sanders and Dallas Toler- Wade form one of the best guitar duos of all music genres.
Combined with Kollias' inconceivable drumming technique and speed, as well as with all of their interest and unquestionable knowledge in the Egyptian lore and mythology, Nile is one of the greatest metal bands of all time and quite frankly the best death metal act. Their live performances and their studio recordings are some of the best I've ever seen in terms of quality, musically as well as overall performances. Probably the best overall group both in technique and creativity. Also, I think the production and sound quality of Nile has no match in the genre. Listen to Cast Down the Heretic or What Can Be Safely Written and tell me this band isn't the epitome of brutality.. Along with great technicality and brutality, nile has intelligent lyrics as well.
V1. 7 Comments. 6Amon Amarth. Amon Amarth is a Swedish melodic death metal band from Tumba, formed in 1.
How to Appreciate Death Metal. While most people associate death metal music with a bunch of guys screaming and creating random noise, there's a multitude of reasons why this genre maintains a strong following and earns the fierce loyalty.
The band takes its name from the Sindarin name of Mount Doom. Amon Amarth rules..
One of my fave bands and they definitely deserve to be higher up this list! Awesome songs with awesome riffs. And the viking's feel to the music is unique and takes you to the great battles that must have been fought in those ages! Can't get tired of listening to them!
Absolutely the best out there! Amon amarth is established band playing over 2.
Johan is natural born singer, drummer and his doubekick - rarely you hear that speed and all of it is glued with fantastic lyrics which brings you to old era of vikings - I believe that this band is playing n future at every home over Xmas. Well my house is full of Amon Amarth! Spread the word, valhalla awaits us all! Amon Amarth is the best Death Metal Band out there. Listen to one of their albums 5 times, and it is ingrained in your brain.
V2. 4 Comments. 7Carcass. Carcass are a British extreme metal band from Liverpool, who formed in 1. A reformation was enacted in 2. Ken Owen, due to health reasons. This band has everything, whether you like grindcore, melodic death metal, death 'n roll, or just straight up death metal, they have it!
They're the band that got me into death metal, and they'll always be my favourite. Personally I wouldve chosen either Death or Cannibal Corpse but Carcass also needs some love! You just can't forget about them! Carcass is definitely in the top 3.
Listen to Heartwork, enough said. V1. 8 Comments. 8Opeth. Opeth is a Swedish progressive death metal band from Stockholm, formed in 1. Though the group has been through several personnel changes, singer, guitarist, and songwriter Mikael . Along with Edge of ..
No one could create such a melody within the Death Metal genre like Mikael ever, and I can bet none will be able to create in future.. Please listen to 'Black Rose Immortal' before you vote any other band.
I hate cannibal corpse because I can't hear the lyrics, but opeth you can clearly understand everything. They have created lot of controversy and they are Anti- christ..
And most importantly, they are also considered as one of the forerunners of the Death Metal scene of '8. Deicide is the purest form of Death Metal. I say this band is STILL pretty much underrated. Glen Benton for president 2.
V1. 9 Comments. 10. Behemoth. Behemoth is a Polish blackened death metal band from Gda. They are considered to have played an important role in establishing the Polish extreme metal underground. Mind boggling death.. Wow I love behemoth.. Behemoth rules. Even though Behemoth is not originally a death metal band. They have great atmosphere in their music, and also has death metal influence in their songs.
Also their lyrics is very dark and morbid, powerful and strong. Behemoth makes really extreme death metal. I must say that I uprated them because of Grom (even though it is actually black metal). Grom in my opinion Behemoth's best album.
This is the only death metal band that I can really enjoy. V2. 7 Comments. The Contenders. Obituary. Obituary is an American death metal band formed in October 1. Tampa, Florida, United States, under the name Executioner, then changed the name's spelling to Xecutioner before eventually changing their name to Obituary in 1.
The band comprises vocalist John Tardy, drummer Donald Tardy, guitarist .. Honestly cannot believe that Obituary isn't at least in the top 1.
They are one of the most badass old school death metal bands ever. Along with Death, Morbid Angel, and Malevolent creation they practically created death metal. Go listen to Cause of Death and Slowly We Rot and then tell me that Obituary doesn't deserve to be at least in the top 1. Number one in my mind.
No- one sounds like John and their pounding grooves are second to none. Many other bands sound close to the same, but these guys are as original as Death and Sepultura, they deserve to be at least in the top 3. NOBODY sounds like Obituary and these days they are just a machine in the best sense of the word. Love the old stuff, love the new stuff and dammit if John Tardy isn't about the most instantly recognizable voice in the genre.
No easy accomplishment. You don't need blast beats to be arguably the best death metal band out there.
They so OWN their sound. I had the privilege to take my brother to see them with Devildriver, and I must say, they killed it. Amazing band. V2. Comments. 12. Possessed. Possessed is an American thrash/death metal band, originally formed in 1. San Francisco Bay Area.
Noted for their fast style of playing and Jeff Becerra's guttural vocals, they are routinely called the first band in the death metal genre. Possessed is the sometimes credited with being the first .. Seven Churches! The Best ever!
They either need to be #1 or tied with Death for #1. They coined the phrase .
