Dark Fortress (GER-1) : Seance
17/20
(Melodic Black-  Germany)
Dark Fortress is a German black metal band that tends to be more on the melodic side of the genre. Although they are fairly well-known here in America, they’re generally thought of as mediocre...[read more] |

| Dark Funeral : Vobiscum Satanas
16/20
(Black Metal-  Sweden)
A band’s sophomore album is in my opinion far more important than their debut. The first album is the band’s demonstration that their music is worth your time. The second album is where the most...[read more] |

Dark Funeral : The Secrets of the Black Arts
17/20
(Black Metal- Sweden)
A mediocre debut isn’t something you see very often. A band’s first album is usually either amazing, or dreadful. First impressions are important, and if your band doesn’t make a really good...[read more] |

| Dark Funeral : Diabolis Interium
17/20
(Black Metal- Sweden)
Diabolis Interium is where I think Dark Funeral started getting really good. After two fairly good albums that sounded pretty much the same, it was about time these Swedish black metallers changed...[read more] |

Dark Funeral : Attera Totus Sanctus
16/20
(Black Metal- Sweden)
The space of time in between Dark Funeral releases gets bigger and bigger each time. But recently, since the release of Diabolis Interium, the albums have been getting better, and Attera Totus...[read more] |

| Dark Lunacy : Devoid
18/20
(Melodic Death-  Italy)
Dark Lunacy is a new band for me. I just downloaded them last night and listened to this entire album about an hour ago. I don't think I have heard many other bands relative to this. When listening...[read more] |

This right here is Darkthrone at their best. This is currently one of my favorite black metal albums of all time. My friend bought me this CD when I was in...[read more] |

| Darkthrone : Soulside Journey
16/20
(Black Metal- Norway)
Darkthrone is one of the most popular Black Metal bands up to this day, although I don't care for their newer material. They are a Norwegian Black Metal band starting in 1987 and released a Soulside...[read more] |

Decapitated (PL) : Winds of Creation
16/20
(Technical Death-  Poland)
My first Decapitated album was Organic Hallucinosis, which I don’t think is technical enough to be considered technical death. I got that album during the summer of 2009 and for the longest time,...[read more] |

| Decapitated (PL) : Nihility
17/20
(Technical Death- Poland)
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: a band’s sophomore release is far more important than their debut!! That means that it has to be BETTER than their debut. A band’s debut is just a...[read more] |

Decapitated (PL) : The Negation
16/20
(Technical Death- Poland)
I personally think that this album is Decapitated’s major breakthrough album (in other words, every album that has been released after this one so far has been really good). I’m not going to talk...[read more] |

(Technical Death- Poland)
After touring the world constantly throughout 2004, Decapitated needed to go back home to Poland and start writing new material. By this time, Decapitated was becoming one of the biggest European...[read more] |

Decapitated (PL) : Carnival is Forever
16/20
(Technical Death- Poland)
I was browsing around on Metal Injection and found a YouTube video that had been recently posted that was a mish-mash of all the songs off the new Decapitated album. The video consisted of 30-second...[read more] |

16/20
(Technical Death- USA)

| Dethklok : Dethalbum II
17/20
(Melodic Death- USA)
[Originally posted August 22, 2011]
There are a lot of people that don’t consider Dethklok to be a real metal band. I on the other hand beg to differ. Probably the reason for a lot of people not...[read more] |

| Disma : Towards the Megalith
17/20
(Death Metal- USA)
Remember the good old days, back in the 80's and 90's? When bands like Immolation, Nile, and Incantation ruled over the death metal scene as pioneers of old-school death metal? New Jersey death...[read more] |

DragonForce : Inhuman Rampage
17/20
(Melodic Power-  United-Kingdom)
Being part of the generation of American youth that was born in the mid-1990s, Dragonforce came to my attention because of the XBOX game Guitar Hero. I don’t have an XBOX (or any videogame console)...[read more] |
