Minor correction: the Cynic members (Reinert and Masvidal) played in Death's Human, not ITP. You should probably also check that one out in addition to Cynic's Focus.

Fretless bass in death metal's new generation would be Stargazer. Check out "The Scream That Tore the Sky" or the "A Merging to the Boundless"!

I don't have my record collection at hand so will probably forget something important:
Morbus Chron - SwevenPhlebotomized - Immense Intense Suspense!.T.O.O.H.! - Rad A TrestGorguts - Obscura
hmmmmm....
Adramelech - Psychostasia

Also I like how the OP lists 3 bm albums, followed by doom and thrash

Actually scratch Adramelech and replace it with
Dark Millennium - Ashore the Celestial Burden

On a different day, I could have gone a bit more canonical and included some Death and Autopsy. Very much a POV in the moment.

terrorizer is THE GREATEST
riff they ride out at the end of "world downfall" is a personal fav
did they invent the 'horrors of war/modern society' collage album cover with that record?
― (⊙_⊙?) (original bgm), Thursday, 24 September 2020 18:28 (three years ago) link
granted Terrorizer at this point is Pete and the dudes from Monstrosity, but their new alb was good, and they do such a good job of recreating the WD album live....but I saw them live last year and it was just an endless barrage of grind, people going nuts, my friend Kelly standing next to me just being enthralled (she had never heard them before).
so many ppl air drumming...
― LaRusso Auto (Neanderthal), Thursday, 24 September 2020 18:37 (three years ago) link
also, another monstrosity is hardly the worst thing I can think of
― (⊙_⊙?) (original bgm), Thursday, 24 September 2020 18:41 (three years ago) link
I got to see them a few years ago, one of their first shows after they reformed. it was a lot of fun.
bought myself a terribly printed Monstrosity shirt that doesn't fit anymore.
then i went home and bought what I thought was an EP of new stuff they released but it turned out to be a hip hop act. then the album dropped a few years later (2018?)
― LaRusso Auto (Neanderthal), Thursday, 24 September 2020 18:46 (three years ago) link
yea, I saw em touring that last record. fun show. sick leads.

yeah, I literally just finished spinning again. even by 90s standards they weren't bringing 'new' ideas to the table, just doing the ideas very well and gritty, earthy style.

yeah, my metal cruise friends got me into them. they actually waged a multi-year campaign to get them booked on the boat and succeeded many years later.
this album is especially dope. i was playing it on a 9 am drive and wanted to leap out of my car and jump on someone. I waited until I got to a red light.

Cadaver - Hallucinating Anxiety
btw methanietanner I checked this out and enjoyed it a lot, kind of funny how different it was to what came later. it feels like the musical expression of a video nasty, the feeling of being in a basement surrounded by people you don't trust and no idea how to escape.
― Neanderthal, Tuesday, 27 October 2020 02:44 (three years ago) link
Glad you dug it and that's a good description of its uh unique appeal.
― Judi Dench's Human Hand (methanietanner), Tuesday, 27 October 2020 14:51 (three years ago) link
yea, few death metal albums I've heard that are truly that filthy sounding....
― Neanderthal, Tuesday, 27 October 2020 15:19 (three years ago) link
putting this shit here cos i'm lazy and this is a thread that becomes active when one of us posts in it.
so I've decided to give Therion another shot. literally my only experience with them was Theli 15 years ago, and it didn't gel with me at all, so I destroyed the cd and actually killed some of the people in the band.
anyway, years later, I'm starting back over, and started with Beyond Sanctorum, which is totally my shit. good old school death metal with atmosphere.
also got Lepaca Kliffoth to get something in the transition period, and am digging this, almost on the same level I dig Sentenced's North from Here.
what albums of theirs are the best? I am totally cool with the more orchestral stuff, actually very curious about it, also wondering if there's any other 'old' stuff worth a shit in their catalog similar t Beyond Sanctorum.
I don't have time to listen to it all myself so don't tell me to do that or I will be forced to ask you politely to leave.
