80. Blasphemy - Fallen Angel of Doom... - (1990)




A primitive, brutal, dense, unrelenting blast of black/death/grind. If you like death metal, but feel it's too polished, like black metal, but don't dig the dissonance of Norwgian BM, and like grindcore, but wish they'd add some more extreme metal influences, then Blasphemy is your band. There's not a single thing pretty about this band, but they ****ing rip.

They also inspired their own sub-sub-genre of black/death metal known as "war metal", populated by such awesome, sonically regressive bands as Black Witchery, Bestial Warlust, and Diocletian. I'll probably have to make posts for each of those bands too.


Spoiler for ****ing ****, dude!:
