Demigod - Slumber Of Sullen Eyes If you are a true death metal Antichrist crusader and haven't listened to this... I oughta disembowel you with a straight razor like in that old movie from the '20s starring God. What we have here is cult classic essential death that few have really matched. |

Rottrevore - Iniquitous You see that monster on the cover art? That's only half as fuckin' ugly as the music (no, wait, I mean that as a good thing! WAIT!) |
|

Convulse - World Without God Are you an aspiring death metal musician with a severe case of writer's block? Chances are, if you copy this album, you'll have released something much better than Chris Barnes has ever done. |

Brutality - Screams Of Anguish Who doesn't like quality Florida death metal? Besides those no good Manowar infidels, that is. |
|

Thanatos - Emerging From The Netherworlds Hold on there, Vezzy, you little runt! This isn't death metal, this is PURE FUCKING THRASH!... well I dunno and I don't really care (it's death/thrash if we go all genre commando on your asses), because this has one Earth-shattering tone. |

Demilich - Nespithe Self-explanatory. |

Immolation - Dawn Of Possession I'm running out of ideas, am I? |
|

Nocturnus - The Key Wait, I can feel the death entering my soul again! Yep, more Florida death, quite essential too. Even Alexi Laiho admits to having wet dreams about Nocturnus, only to fail miserably at even coming close to its vicerality. Less gay-sounding, more manly keyboards will come in handy, Alexi. Learn your shit. |

God Macabre - The Winterlong When people say Swedish death, most think of At the Gates and In Flames. I think God Macabre, Centinex and Grotesque (yes, Entombed, Grave and Dismember too, ffs). Sorry, Grossy, but not enough room for ya. This is pretty chilled though. |

Necrophobic - The Nocturnal Silence The album that Euronymous was too afraid to admit he liked (probably because he died eight days later, the poor sap). |
|

|
Cianide - The Dying Truth Death/doom worth every dime, as far as my cheap, unemployed mind can be concerned. Child labour is serious business. Bonus mention: Asphyx - The Rack. We love ya, Martin. |

|
Cancer - To The Gory End If you want raw, unadulterated, no bullshit death metal - Cancer have something to say on the matter. A damn shame what they ultimately regressed into though. |

Rippikoulu - Musta Seremonia Only the deaf and the oversaturated, keyboard warrior-pussified powah metal lovers can detest this demo. |
|

Sore Throat - Never Mind The Napalm Here's Sore Woops, wrong list. Still, I'd much rather take Sore Throat over those sellouts, the Sex Pistols any day. I'd also swear myself a slave to punk (the crusty and grinding kind) than be a Japanese flower metal enthusiast weeaboo. Plus, this means we only have 20 albums after all! 11 + 9 = 20! 9/11 was an inside job, holy shit! |

Merciless - The Awakening You can't really blame EUROnymous (goes to show you about his political agenda) for signing these not really black at all dudes (indeed, they're white). Abrasive death-thrash slaughter. |
|

|
Megaslaughter - Calls From The Beyond This album goes down to -1 in the tuning department (is it C, G, B or Z, I'm no guitar expert, fuck that). Chainsaw garage mayhem. |
|

|
Centinex - Subconscious Lobotomy More Swedes. I think Puma Swede is an ugly whore though. |
|
18.
|
Cadaver - ...In Pains Like a masochist getting flattened by a steamroller. |
|

|
Eucharist - Mirrorworlds Name a lesser known melodic death band. If you didn't say Eucharist, you just lost The Game. Thank you very much. |
|

|
Sempiternal Deathreign - The Spooky Gloom Despite the album title sounding like a lost '60s acid rock album, this is some damn fine death/doom. Spookin' rad, man. I shall now smoke a joint and potheadbang to this while time slows down to the gloom. |

Miasmal - Miasmal Because I'm such a nice troll-er, guy, here's a crusty Swedish death metal album that came out 2011. Great stuff, these guys know their history, I'd say. Kind of like those Katalysator guys I read about on Voices From The Darkside, who are decent musically, but nothing spectacular. Both know their history and the guys from Katalysator are even nice enough to be elitist pricks like me. AMERICA UBER ALLES! (oh and we actually do have 21 albums, dammit) |
