ShadowRemains: Death Metal of 2020

ShadowRemains 12.06.20	ford asked if i was going to make a 2020 death metal list and well... that got me thinking
hal1ax 12.06.20	Rad list. 2 is so good! Bookmarked
ShadowRemains 12.06.20	cheers, and yes it is, i'mma need a few more full lengths from the other bands that share their tier in terms of newer osdm bands
butt. 12.06.20	goddamn. I thought I listened to so much death metal this year, yet I've hardly heard of anything from 40-60
evilford 12.06.20	Sweet nice list. Missed summa these Been digging 4 super hard
Ryus 12.06.20	swag ya 2 is great, 5 is great, lots of good stuff here. 7 is still my aoty. incredible album
ShadowRemains 12.06.20	mods feature this you hoes and yes i normally am not a fan of modern brutal dm all that much, but defeated sanity is generally an exception to the rule
evilford 12.06.20	Nothing in the world like quality dm
ShadowRemains 12.06.20	"mods feature this you hoes" thank you!
Hyperion1001 12.07.20	sweet list! tons of here i havent heard, what should i spin first?
ShadowRemains 12.07.20	any particular style you're going for? i think you might dig that evulse EP (19)
Hyperion1001 12.07.20	groovy riffs ala 4 and 5
ShadowRemains 12.07.20	ok definitely the evulse EP, undergang, 200 stab wounds, imperial savagery, gutless/mortal wound split, visceral mass, tzun tzu you'd probably like the had EP as well
evilford 12.07.20	That gutless/mortal wound split is sick damn
BookoftheFallen 12.07.20	countless skies was really good too. Its melodic death metal.
ShadowRemains 12.07.20	“That gutless/mortal wound split is sick damn“ damn right, need a full length from both of those bands asap
evilford 12.07.20	Definitely Is tzun tzu's other material worth checking as well? The forbidden city was great
Pikazilla 12.07.20	fookin epic list m/
ShadowRemains 12.07.20	eh their full length from 2012 was pretty meh but the decay of golden gods from 2016 is good
bigguytoo9 12.07.20	I showed my buddy the Cryptic Shift album earlier this year and he right away bought it on Vinyl after the record label started up again during COVID. It's such a ripper album.
Hyperion1001 12.07.20	"ok definitely the evulse EP, undergang, 200 stab wounds, imperial savagery, gutless/mortal wound split, visceral mass, tzun tzu" hell yeah jamming now, thanks bud.
ShadowRemains 12.07.20	I would like to thank you for thanking me for making this list
Coast 12.07.20	Ah so much death and plenty still to scavenge.
TheNotrap 12.07.20	Great DM jams here
DePlazz 12.07.20	Sweet, bookmarked
Thalassic 12.07.20	1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 11, 14, 22, 24, 37 were all so good I bought them right away Other DM records that are among my favorites and I bought this year are; Afterbirth - Four Dimensional Flesh Cytotoxin - Nuklearth Karmacipher - Introspectrum Of Feather and Bone - Sulfuric Disintegration Putrescent Seepage - Dead and Demented Pyrrhon - Abscess Time Now I'm waiting for the physical release of the new Ecchymosis record
hel9000 12.07.20	This is sick, will be checking a bunch of these
Deathconscious 12.07.20	Its been a good year.
combustion07 12.07.20	19 is fantastic
evilford 12.07.20	My vote would be cryptic shift. It's pretty well agreed by most dm fans to be one of this year's best Also if u dug new defeated sanity, there's more where that came from (their discog)
ShadowRemains 12.07.20	19 is indeed the jam, also forgot about of feather and bone (although I’m not as big a fan of them as some others)
ThyCrossAwaits 12.07.20	Thank you, Based Remains I came to say that and also to rec that Afterbirth record Thalassic mentioned, lol
dbizzles 12.07.20	Great list. I need to check a TON of these.
sonictheplumber 12.07.20	Feature this!
sonictheplumber 12.07.20	Awesome picks I've only heard a handful from the top 10
ShadowRemains 12.07.20	I should give that afterbirth record a spin although I wasn’t much a fan of their previous material
evilford 12.07.20	Karmacipher [2] Pretty damn solid ulcerate worship Also I really liked afterbirth. Will Smith (artificial brain) on vox
Ecnalzen 12.07.20	I am pretty new to the Death Metals. I listen to more of the melodeath/death mixes than straight up death, I think, like Black Dahlia Murder, At the Gates, Dark Tranquillity, etc I love Atheist, and enjoy what I have heard from Death's stuff. What would be good for me to try on here? If anyone feels like giving me some pointers, I'd appreciate it!
Hyperion1001 12.07.20	youll definitely dig the hell out of that shards of humanity album, its loaded with tons of great melodies and technical riffs.
evilford 12.08.20	Cosign shards
ShadowRemains 12.08.20	if you love atheist and death then voidceremony is a good bet
evilford 12.08.20	Voidceremony was a huge grower for me. Wasnt huge on it at first but its definitely one of my 2020 faves now
ShadowRemains 12.08.20	the last track on that had EP is so fucking good
evilford 12.08.20	Whole thing was really good. Gonna be getting well acquainted with bandcamp from now on hah
ShadowRemains 12.08.20	i personally wish that album was a bit more standout in terms of instrumentals because those vocals are top notch
Ecnalzen 12.08.20	Thanks for the suggestions! I'll check em out
ShadowRemains 12.08.20	time to jam the mortal wound/gutless split again because goddammit i need a full length from both of those bands and sanguisugabogg
ShadowRemains 12.08.20	gutless' side of that has just about perfect production on the drums you should probably hear the EPs from both bands as well, they're both high quality
evilford 12.08.20	Yeah I loved gutless already, mortal wound really super knocked it out of the park on their half I think the full length im looking forward to most is probably ossuary. Both their demos are gold
Ecnalzen 12.08.20	This Shards of Humanity is sounding pretty good right about now
ShadowRemains 12.08.20	yeah ossuary will rule, mortal incarnation too
evilford 12.08.20	Yes, LRD was amazing Plus we already know we have new frozen soul in January to look forward to
ShadowRemains 12.08.20	this joint from last year is also awesome (do not be fooled by the 3.5, this would be a 4 with another song tacked on): https://www.sputnikmusic.com/soundoff.php?albumid=364228
evilford 12.08.20	Sweet
hexfix93 12.08.20	Sweet list. I've been slacking when it comes to new dm, there's only a few albums I've heard on here. Looks like I've got a lot of stuff to check out lol
Ecnalzen 12.08.20	That Obscene album is pretty great, too Not sure about Voidceremony yet. May need another listen or two for it. The bass was quite bitchin, tho
ShadowRemains 12.08.20	yeah let it breathe a bit
DDDeftoneDDD 12.09.20	EI bro...what badassery of DM list m/ I chedcked a lot from these...that Undergang is my last affair, its soooo cool! You actually haven't checked Afterbirth? Do it bro.
DDDeftoneDDD 12.09.20	"Best release by them IMO since Everything Is Fire" also a big [2] on this
Narcho123 12.09.20	Great list. Was working on my own but it's so similar to yours idk if I'll even bother.
Narcho123 12.09.20	Check out Live Burial's Unending Futility
ShadowRemains 12.09.20	i feel like i gave that a listen a while back and i was thinking "i'd rather listen to autopsy", but i'll give it another whirl
DDDeftoneDDD 12.10.20	='(
ShadowRemains 12.12.20	mortiferum/hyperdontia split prob belongs on here despite only being two tracks
evilford 12.12.20	Yeah that split destroys. Both songs rule
DDDeftoneDDD 12.12.20	Ok Shadow, I guess you don t want us to be friends. I'm sad, but hope you realize we both loose. Massive list.
Deathconscious 12.12.20	New Undergang definitely is best since their debut. Love those nasty gurgly vox from the newish guitarist. Or at least i think hes the one doing them.
evilford 12.12.20	Indhentet af Døden, Døden læger alle sår and Aldrig i livet are just about tied for me. Awesome band
DDDeftoneDDD 12.12.20	Undergang is prob the coolest osdm now...like you ll never know what to expect on length etc...crazy stuff...plus those whreeeeahs are awesome...and that track where the dude seems like he s opening a pepsi and reliefs an "aaaah" its the coolest dm lol of he year imo
ShadowRemains 12.12.20	“Ok Shadow, I guess you don t want us to be friends. I'm sad, but hope you realize we both loose. Massive list.“ huh
Ryus 12.12.20	undergang is rly good ya
botb 12.13.20	Commenting to follow and check the ones I haven’t heard
ShadowRemains 12.13.20	so the afterbirth record, while not quite being my usual cup of tea, is pretty great regardless
InbredJed 12.13.20	hail Shadow
ShadowRemains 12.13.20	kneel to ur lord
sonictheplumber 12.13.20	feature this!
sonictheplumber 12.13.20	might buy the new undergang but im waitin to see if dark descent has a sale for xmas
deathschool 12.13.20	Need to look into some of these
sonictheplumber 12.13.20	yea i spent a shit on DD for labor day
ShadowRemains 12.13.20	DD has really stepped up in recent years, 20 buck spin and maggot stomp have some great bands between them, iron bonehead, blood harvest, profound lore isn't quite as good as they once were but they're still good, etc.
sonictheplumber 12.14.20	dehuman reign - descending upon the oblivious is pretty sweet
ShadowRemains 12.16.20	lol
Hyperion1001 12.16.20	posted this in ryus's dm thread but gravesend's preparations for human disposal is pretty awesome after the first couple of listens
ShadowRemains 12.16.20	i see it's tagged as black metal/grind? or is that just sputnik being stupid
Hyperion1001 12.16.20	yeah its got some grind in it but its really just filthy death metal i guess genre warriors could call it "war metal" but that tag is fucking stupid so im not calling it that lmao.
ShadowRemains 12.17.20	ah i see they're 20 buck spin, should be pretty good at minimum then, looks like they got a full length coming in february too
butt. 01.05.21	Any known dm releases coming up soon?
butt. 01.06.21	Halp
sonictheplumber 01.06.21	sup
ShadowRemains 01.07.21	Frozen Soul, Ad Nauseum
