Barry "Baz" Thompson (Bolt Thrower)
Nergal (Behemoth)

Luc Lemay (Gorguts, Negativa)

Entombed - Clandestine
Atheist - Piece of Time

are my favourite by those two bands, although I've only heard one other Entombed album. I've only heard a handful of bolt thrower songs here and there so I dunno what their best album is.

I would have to agree with noodles on Clandestine, easily the best Entombed album. I'm not too familiar with Atheist unfortunately.

For Bolt Thrower, go with War Master. Amazing album, though you might not like them as they tend to go for a thunderous groove instead of all out speed.

As for which five to vote out, I'm still having a tough time deciding.

Yeah more like grindcore (realm of chaos) but what made bt what is is today the monstruous bass sound and crushing pounding slow riffs.


OK my list:

Akerfeldt
Nicke Andersson
Paul Ryan
Matt Harvey
Andreas Bjorler

Athiest - Elements

As for Guitarists:
Erik Rutan
Paul Ryan
Nicke Andersson
Terrence Hobbs

Wow I haven't heard a lot of these bands. Can someone create a list of what albums to generally check out. I don't know bands like Pestilence, Immolation, Exhumed and Gorguts.
Author:  noodles [ Sat Jun 23, 2007 4:17 am ]
Post subject: 
Immolation - Unholy Cult (it's my favourite although pretty much everything they've done is great)
Gorguts - Obscura
Exhumed - Anatomy is Destiny (their last three are all great, as you get later in their discography they get less early Carcass-sounding and more technical/thrashy)

Pestilence's albums range from good to amazing, but I'd go with Testimony of the Ancients. I doubt you'll be disappointed.

Nergal
Muhammed Suicmez
Karl Sanders

Eric Rutan

I'm still a death metal noob, I haven't heard a lot of those bands.

And I agree with noodles on James Malone.

Woops. I guess I did.


Although, those are about the only bands I've heard from that list so... I guess it could go both ways.

I'm sticking with these five at the moment:

Anders Bjorler
Mikael Akerfeldt
Matt Harvey
Robert Vigna
Paul Ryan

Check out the recommendations that people have listed in this thread for Entombed, Atheist, Bolt Thrower, Immolation, Pestilence, and Gorguts (though I'd go with The Erosion of Sanity for them, even though Obscura is awesome).

By the way, the Obscura review on this site is pretty shoddy, and that's being generous.
