More death/doom than straight up death metal, but whereas most death/doom bands are doom bands with death metal aesthetics, Disembowelment perfectly combine the two without sacrificing either heaviness or brutality. Too bad they only ever released one album, but it's a classic.

Disembowelment - The Tree of Life and Death

Snipped the video, but AWESOME album. Underrated jewel of the death/doom genre.

Because Luc Lemay (vocalist) put together a completely different line-up, consisting of musicians that were already active. So it's not really the same Gorguts that was kicking ass in the 90s. But yeah the new album was superb, my favorite track was "An Ocean of Wisdom". That riff is ****ing COLOSSAL!

Don't know if it has been mentioned, but the first Darkthrone album, Soulside journey, is one of my all time favorite death metal albums.. And their album Goatlord, is also pretty deathmetally... After their first album they changed style though..

Soulside Journey is one of my favorite two Darkthrone albums, actually. It's some great death metal. I feel like it doesn't get enough credit because people just think of Darkthrone as a black metal band. "Cromlech" was the first Darkthrone song I heard.

I thought you would have heard it since you have the Ulver cover as avatar..

Danish death metal has been kind of overlooked in the thread aswell, Koldborn is cool... And the Exmortem album called Berzerker Legions is pretty cool. And the first Marduk album, Dark Endless , is way cool.(not danish.. but death metal)

Same here actually. Norwegian black metal isn't my fav genre, and I've always been lukewarm about Darkthrone, but Soulside Journey is pretty sweet. My fav album by them might actually be FOAD. They finally wised up and accepted that 1st wave black metal is superior.

German Death Metal rocks, like.. really

I've been falling in love with prog/tech death metal.

^ I'm not much for technical death metal but Revocation are pretty great.

Pretty good, kinda sounds more thrash with the non-growling vocals.

Yeah they're more technical death thrash metal.
