Deicide are a great band. The first three albums are classic, the second (Legion) being my personal favorite and their most complex. Get a proper recording of it; the rhythm section is brilliant on this album.
Blasphemy! Early (late 80s) Canadian Black Metal. Brilliant ****; while Scandinavia went melodic, they went brutal.
Incantation. This band has had many, many notable members; Daniel from the Chasm, Rahmer from Mortician, Ledney from Havohej & Profantica, etc. Some people prefer their first album, "Onward to Golgotha", but I think "Diabolical Conquest" has great riffs, melancholy harmonies, and a powerful rhythm section.
Watchmaker no longer exist, which is a shame, because they produced albums that were rare for their subgenre, in that they lacked filler. I realize they're pretty extreme, but you said you wanted fast, so....
Siege were around for a long time, but recordings of theirs are hard to come by. Sort of hardcore meets grindcore; Slayer gone punk, Metallica after snorting whiskey. Fast would explain their music quite well.
