TheAngryPelican: Top 50 Death / Black Metal Bands

Hawks 06.09.10	A lot of people might disagree with some of the bands on this list, but I think it's fucking awesome.
Obfuscation24 06.09.10	Nice list man, 1 7 9 16 24 25 34 35 38 are all great Not sure Cannibal Corpse should be on here though lol
Gmork89 06.09.10	Very good list indeed.
qwe3 06.09.10	no.
buckfutter 06.09.10	If you include In Flames on a Best of Metal list, Qwe dies a lil inside
Hyperion1001 06.09.10	It's trve kvlt to say 10 and 37 are sell-outs, but their old material was quite good. Nice list. Only band on here i can't stand is 34.
SCREAM! 06.09.10	I died a little cause of Cradle of Filth Lots of good but a andful of questionable choices too. Needs more kvlt
qwe3 06.09.10	"If you include In Flames on a Best of Metal list, Qwe dies a lil inside" well not just them but yeah made worse by the fact that this guy considers them death or black metal
TheSpirit 06.09.10	Ehh I would disagree with this list even though no band on it is horrible.
Gmork89 06.09.10	Man, all this hate for In Flames makes me sad.
buckfutter 06.09.10	It depends on how you look at it, Qwerty my good friend. He could look at them as melodic death metal and think that validates his reasoning for them being on here. TheSpirit- My sentiments exactly
qwe3 06.09.10	dude im sorry but you cant include suffocation and in flames on a dm list its one or the other yknow. make a melodeath list if you wanna do in flames but cmon
buckfutter 06.09.10	If you want to get particular and anal about it, then yeah, I agree with you.
qwe3 06.09.10	in flames =/= dm if you also think suffocation is dm oh and btw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bXFmNC3q4Es
SCREAM! 06.09.10	Suffocation is dm In flames would be melo dm Whiich is a sub genre of dm Thus warranting a spot Its not that complicated qwe man
buckfutter 06.09.10	Dammit, I can't watch it. This computer doesn't support any type of video, on account of it being from the Stone Ages
qwe3 06.09.10	"Suffocation is dm In flames would be melo dm Whiich is a sub genre of dm Thus warranting a spot Its not that complicated qwe man" thats like saying FAV PUNK BANDS and putting up the clash, assuck, pig destroyer, pg99, ceremony and shit kinda awk
buckfutter 06.09.10	I see what you're saying Qwe, but I think you're being a bit too anal about it. Melodeath sounds more like death metal than pants like assuck and pig destroyer sound like punk
SCREAM! 06.09.10	Not really. Melodic death metal is a sub genre of death metal. What you said would be like having metallica alongside Burzum along with some Alestorm. Which all fall under metal but many different sub genres. Here were only talking of the sub genre DM along with the sub-sub genre Melo DM.
qwe3 06.09.10	idk inflames has never sounded like dm to me except for gutturals. i mean melodeath like intestine baalism and arghoslent does but w.e
SCREAM! 06.09.10	I could definitely put the older stuff under melo death personally, some of the new stuff id just put there cause it still seems the most fitting place
FadeToBlack 06.09.10	assuck sounds more death metal than melodeath
qwe3 06.09.10	"Not really. Melodic death metal is a sub genre of death metal. What you said would be like having metallica alongside Burzum along with some Alestorm. Which all fall under metal but many different sub genres. Here were only talking of the sub genre DM along with the sub-sub genre Melo DM." yeah fair enough still point stands melodeath and death metal are too far removed for them to be one thing. insomnium for example is nothing like incantation yet theyre considered both death metal. nahhhhhhh and i mean fucking arch enemy? on the same list as CC? doesnt make sense. oh and sepultra. cmon.
SCREAM! 06.09.10	Im surprised you havent brought up thhe point that this is a death / black list. Those two are much farther apart than death and melo death. I dont understand why theyre always thrown together
qwe3 06.09.10	well yeah but whatever at least hes acknowledging them as different. unless he thinks these are all blackened death in which case lol
FadeToBlack 06.09.10	its the unwritten rule of sputnik that if you include melodeath in a 'death metal' list, u will get raped and rightfully so
qwe3 06.09.10	f2b ilu
FadeToBlack 06.09.10	as for the list; its good, but the black metal bands are all really entry level and stuff (no offesne)
Dryden 06.09.10	i expected this to be a great great list, how wrong i was
WithHorsesInHerEyes 06.09.10	Possessed should be alot higher up.
Blotto 06.09.10	What's the best Obituary album?
FadeToBlack 06.09.10	Cause Of Death and Slowly We Rot are the only Obituary albums you need.
Blotto 06.09.10	Cheers
McCopper 06.09.10	Props for many of these but 50 sucks sooo baaaad...

EpXeh 06.22.10	inclusion of cradle of filth, darkthrone not being higher. my face: >.>
TheAngryPelican 07.03.10	i find it kind of strange that people are angry because i put melodic DEATH METAL bands on a best of death and black metal list. since when was melo death not death metal?
Hyperbore 07.03.10	Did you simply name the 50 most recognizable death & black metal bands? Be honest...
TheAngryPelican 07.03.10	hyperbore, no, this is simply the product of years of death metal and black metal music collecting, and analysis of said music.
