03.28.25 | Last year, my answer was None So Vile.
This year, my answer is Morbid Angel's first album.
Maybe one day I will actually stick to an answer. |
Christbait
03.28.25 | I'd put Reign Supreme over Destroy the Opposition but that's just personal taste. |
Hawks
03.28.25 | Defeated Sanity - The Sanguinary Impetus |
DarkSideOfLucca
03.28.25 | @Christbait - Honestly, I might like Wrong One To Fuck With as my favorite, but I put Destroy there just for classic purposes.
Also, depending on the day I might also prefer Kill and Torture to Tomb of the Mutilated, but that depends on if I'm in a Corpsegrinder/technical perfection or Chris Barnes/gross horror kind of mood.
Everything else is pretty accurate though for albums
@Hawks - can't remember if I heard that one, but Passages and Chapters are straight fire |
Relinquished
03.28.25 | Ulcerate - Everything Is Fire
I love 90s dm so much but this album is well-written, well-produced, well-executed, lyrically solid, it riffs hard and they’re fun, the drumming is top-tier, the whole thing flows well and is well-structured.
been my answer now for 10+ years |
evilford
03.28.25 | Ulcerate - Everything is Fire [2]
P.s. wtf hawks |
Hawks
03.28.25 | I'm just trying to direct him towards some DS my brother of course EIF is best lol. Its just such a common answer for us lol. |
evilford
03.28.25 | Yeah ik lol |
jrlikestodance
03.28.25 | Effigy of the Forgotten for me but None So Vile and The Sanguinary Impetus are right there with it |
evilford
03.28.25 | All gud picks |
DarkSideOfLucca
03.28.25 | Yeah Effigy is basically tied for me with Pierced From Within tbh - I give Pierced a SLIGHT edge but I mean it's like a microscopic edge lol |
evilford
03.28.25 | @Lucca do yourself a favor and check everything is fire. |
Relinquished
03.28.25 | @hawks it’s a common answer for those that remember the blog days and were around in 09-12 lol |
Kusangii
03.28.25 | Where the fuck is Suicide Silence??? |
evilford
03.28.25 | @wolfe my love for eif grew independently of all that I think. I heard it first in 2012 or 2013, but didn't fully realize how batshit insane of a record it is until probably 5 or 6 years ago. Album is just fucking nuts and it's pretty easily my #1 these days, if not tied with Nespithe |
ThyCrossAwaits
03.28.25 | easy it's 6 |
el_newg
03.28.25 | demilich bro |
el_newg
03.28.25 | you pretty much hit all my favs though fuck dm rocks |
DaveyMonsoon
03.28.25 | The best death metal album is the one you like the most. |
evilford
03.28.25 | So eif |
Gameofmetal
03.28.25 | Ulcerate - EiF is a good choice, Suffo - Effigy, Autopsy - Mental Funeral, Death - Human are some of my contention picks. |
evilford
03.28.25 | Incantation - Onward to golgotha is also up there |
DarkSideOfLucca
03.28.25 | Ok fine, I'll listen to Everything is Fire today
I haven't listened to too much Ulcerate because honestly to me it's just so fucking exhausting to listen to because of how overwhelmingly dense it is lol - for whatever reason, Stare Into Death is the one that REALLY stood out to me on first listen, and I still adore the fuck out of that album
But I do need to give Everything is Fire more attention - it's just...so fucking dense |
el_newg
03.28.25 | the density is perfectly juxtaposed with their atmospheric parts imo part of what makes them so killer |
NexCeleris
03.28.25 | Maybe the real best death metal of all time was the death metal we listened to along the way. |
zakalwe
03.28.25 | Morbid Angel - Covenant |
DominionMM1
03.28.25 | human |
ThyCrossAwaits
03.28.25 | If we're going with Death it's definitely Symbolic, and I say that as a HUGE Sound of Perseverance apologist |
brickhed
03.28.25 | yeah yeah ill say my top pick is for sure Timeghoul - 1992-94 Discography |
CottonSalad
03.28.25 | Ulcerate [2]
or Suffocation probably
|
Nazzadan
03.28.25 | Removing melo stuff I'd probably go
NSV
Realm of Chaos
Obscene Majesty
Close to a World Below
The Flesh Prevails 10th Anniversary Remix |
Nazzadan
03.28.25 | I dunno actually I listen to Morbid Angel's Domination way more often than any Immolation now, maybe that's in my #4 spot nowadays |
YoYoMancuso
03.28.25 | michael jackson - thriller |
Comatorium.
03.28.25 | But we do already know. It’s 5 on this list |
artificialbox
03.28.25 | all this screamo crap sounds the same to me! |
Demon of the Fall
03.28.25 | Obscura, Consuming Impulse, None So Vile… top 3 these days |
jrlikestodance
03.28.25 | Bolt Thrower - Those Once Loyal has also been up there for me lately. Always hits |
Colliiiin
03.28.25 | Obscura, Nespithe, Mental Funeral and Chapters of Repugnance are the first few that come to mind |
climactic
03.28.25 | human [2]
everything is fire [627263] |
rage11111ro
03.29.25 | Colored sands (2)
Maybe as well..The bleeding or even The world demise |
Dedes
03.29.25 | The best death metal is what's in your heart |
brickhed
04.23.25 | the best death metal are the friends we made along the way |
Relinquished
04.23.25 | yes eat your friends and heart death metal-style |
Spec
04.23.25 | I’m probably going with Left Hand Path tbh.
Any Death album and None So Vile are right there too though. |
