Badass Death Metal Albums

Some of my favourite Death Metal albums in no particular order. Recs are always welcome. Add some of your personal favourites in the comments : )

1

Morbid Angel
Covenant

My favourite Morbid Angel album (and probably favourite Death Metal album ever). So happy to have seen these guys play it in its entirety at a 20th Anniversary show.

2

Suffocation
Pierced from Within

One of the best Death Metal albums.

3

Death
Symbolic

One legendary album. This is an essential.

4

Death
Individual Thought Patterns

Another fantastic Death album.

5

Entombed
Left Hand Path

A classic Swedish Death Metal. One of the best DM albums ever.

6

Obituary
Slowly We Rot

Vocals might take a bit of getting used to, but some killer riffs and drumming on here.

7

Suffocation
Effigy of the Forgotten

One of the most iconic debuts in Death Metal.

8

Morbid Angel
Blessed Are the Sick

A classic Morbid Angel album.

9

Cryptopsy
None So Vile

Crazy ass Canadian Death Metal from 1996. Unbelievably heavy for its time.

10

Dismember
Like an Ever Flowing Stream

The Swedes just know how to make some fucking amazing Death Metal. A classic of the genre!

11

Gorguts
Considered Dead

Another solid debut Death Metal album. "Stiff And Cold" features one of my fav Death Metal riffs ever.

12

Grave
Into the Grave

Some great, raw Swedish Death Metal. Can't go wrong.

13

Malevolent Creation
Retribution

Top notch American Death Metal.

14

Immolation
Dawn of Possession

A badass debut album from one of the greats of the genre. This album riffs for days!

15

Death
Leprosy

One of my personal fav Death albums. The title track is just killer.

16

Suffocation
Breeding the Spawn

The production kinda holds it back, but still sick songs to be found.

17

Morbid Angel
Altars of Madness

One of the greatest, and earliest, Death Metal albums to be released. An essential!

18

Monstrosity
Imperial Doom

Kickass Death Metal album which features Corpsegrinder before he joined Cannibal Corpse.

19

Carnage
Dark Recollections

Not as well known as some other Swedish Death Metal bands, but Carnage featured members who would later on form Dismember and Arch Enemy. Great album.

20

Carcass
Heartwork

One of the best Melodic Death Metal albums ever recorded.

21

Immolation
Here in After

A monstrous and brutal OSDM album. "Christ's Cage" has of my favourite intros of the genre.

22

Massacre
From Beyond

A solid OSDM album that holds up with the greats of the genre.

23

Bolt Thrower
The IVth Crusade

Crushing record. Solid from start to finish \m/

24

Uncanny
Splenium For Nyktophobia

An often overlooked album that is both melodic and brutal. Definitely check out this out for some badass riffs and some decent production as well \m/

25

Immolation
Close to a World Below

One of the most insane and sinister Death Metal albums out there. The riffs are twisted, the drumming is relentless and the vocals are from the depths of hell. This album crushes \m/

26

Cannibal Corpse
Tomb of the Mutilated

Gruesome album cover and brutal music. Can't go wrong!

27

Cannibal Corpse
The Bleeding

Another classic CC album. Definitely worth checking out.

28

Brutality
Screams of Anguish

An overlooked classic. Check this out if you haven't already.

29

Immolation
Majesty and Decay

Possibly my favourite "modern" Death Metal album. This album crushes!

30

Morbid Angel
Formulas Fatal to the Flesh

This album finishes in a strange way (3 instrumental tracks) but still overall a fantastic DM album!

TheClansman95 08.04.18	awesome list man. Lots of my favourites too, I would have added "The Bleeding" by Cannibal Corpse. I love that shit. Your taste is awesome however m/
Morningrise767 08.04.18	@Clansman, Cheers bro, I will check out The Bleeding. Could never really get into CC as much as these other bands here, but thanks for the rec.
TheClansman95 08.04.18	Yeah I always feel like sounding mainstream when I recommend CC to people, but I do think they're awesome. They're the reason why I felt the need to start growling
Morningrise767 08.04.18	Yeah that's cool man, CC are no doubt a huge band in the genre with a massive influence. I can respect what they've done for death metal and the impact they've left.
TheClansman95 08.04.18	Vomitory are definitely brutal too. Worth checking out if you don't know them, Carnage Euphoria is cool
TheClansman95 08.04.18	oh, and I also recommend checking out Nile, Necrophagist and Fleshgod Apocalypse, if you like tech death
Ocean of Noise 08.04.18	List is pretty basic, but hey, these are all great albums. No Pestilence, though???
DarkSideOfLucca 08.04.18	Fucking dope list bro m/
TheClansman95 08.04.18	I can feel the BRUTALITY flowing
Morningrise767 08.04.18	@Clansman cheers for the recs man, I've heard of all those bands except Vormitory and Carnage Euphoria. @Ocean basic? Yes, but classic and timeless? Fuck yes ;) Only have one Pestilence album (Testimony of the Ancients) I thought it was really good, I think I need to listen to it more haha @Darkside cheers man :)
osmark86 08.04.18	I would love to see a list like this that tries to steer away from the classics
DarkSideOfLucca 08.04.18	Yeah I guess but the classics are the classics for a reason. If I saw someone's all time favorite death metal albums and they were missing the classics, I would judge.
TheClansman95 08.04.18	Lucca is right
Dissonant 08.05.18	Nice list, I was just listening to 1 today and holy fuck that album is one mean, ugly son of a bitch.
Morningrise767 08.06.18	@Dissonant, it's one of the few Death Metal albums I want to listen to again as soon as it's done haha. It's so damn good.
TheClansman95 08.06.18	yeah it's legendary
