what

Obituary is the definition of death metal.

So he comes into this thread trying to explaing how Obituary of all bands aren't death metal, after releasing this post in the metalcore thread: [url]http://www.sputnikmusic.com/forums/showpost.php?p=15220754&postcount=3046[/url]

And for the record, when old Sepultura isn't being considered "death metal", it's being considered "first wave of black metal".

[QUOTE=masterchaos;15220883]Not to bring up the past pages but...really thats all you can say?
What is one thing about Obituary that is Death Metal? The only thing that would make it Death is the SHI[I]T[/I]TY vocals and the tremelo picking...Im talking mainly about Cause of Death since thats what album we were discussing but saying that Obituray is Death Metal and then bring up somebody like Cryptopsy? Its funny how so many of you on these forums are genre whores but at the same time completely hypocritical.

If Obituary is Death Metal than so is (old) Sepultura and (old) Slayer.[/QUOTE]

OMG! Death metal being similar to thrash metal? that never happened dude!

Obituary (and other such bands) were somewhat of a bridge between Slayer and Cryptopsy (just for example). So what if it's "thrashy"? It shows stylistic evolution from one genre to another. You can't expect super duper ideas to just pop out of thin air.

This dude'll be calling old Deicide and Morbid Angel thrash any minute now...[quote]And for the record, when old Sepultura isn't being considered "death metal", it's being considered "first wave of black metal".[/quote]???

Obituary is death metal, they were early death metal. Just because there is different maybe more 'brutal' DM bands doesn't change the fact that they are DM. Why does it have to have a certain sound?

It's not even very thrashy compared to the undeniable death metal of the first Deicide album or Altars of Madness, for example. I'm just confused.

There was only like one Thrashy song on the s/t Deicide, but AoM did have a thrashy sound.

lol

i recommend you stop posting for a while
you may be overheating from thinking too much

it happens to the best of us

This discussion is pretty stupid, not gonna lie.

Morbid Angel- Heaving Earth
Obituary- Circle of Tyrants

pretty big difference in what one would call death metal.

Forget it. Obituary is Death Metal, Morbid Angel is Death Metal.

Fine I'll just conform to the rest of you.

I just noticed the composer on the music and was going to edit it to Infected.. MY BAD...good thing you watch this place like a hawk or I mightve gotten to it

Obituary isn't good, per say, but they sure as hell [B]are[/B] death metal.

Well look at that we agree on something after all

Does anyone have an opinion on Mental Funeral or Once Upon The Cross? Or Icons Of Evil?

All sound real cheesy.

Autopsy - Mental Funeral
Deicide - Once Upon The Cross
Vital Remains - Icons Of Evil

Autopsy's good. Deicide's nah. Vital Remains is alright.

I don't listen to said bands very much, hence my not recognizing the titles.

That would be like me going, LOL WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT IF YOUVE NEVER DREAMT OF MURDER, THEN YOUVE NEVER BEEN IN LOVE

Mmmm. Deicide pwns, I just don't know about that album. Autopsy is awesome, and I have yet to expierence Vital Remains.
