If you take out Suffocation that i never came to like , no matter how much i tried , and Cattle Decapitation that i havent tried out , thats a most kickass list

I'm the exact same way, I have no idea why people like Suffocation, i don't "get" that band at all |
Because - and this is all my opinion - is that they're one of the few percussive
Death Metal bands that manages to combine the
Brutality and heaviness with intricate and tasteful song craft. They use their technical skills as a
Means to an end, not the end in and of itself, especially with their riffcraft and the basslines that weave between them, alongside the hammering drumming. (Mike Smith and Doug Bohn are both some of death metal's best drummers) Also, i'm not sure why miniradman is saying that Frank Mullen has no vocal talent; his vocals are literally
Inhuman on
Human Waste and
Effiigy of the Forgotten and even the more comprehensible vocals he does on the albums after that are great. Really, one of the best vocalists in DM IMO, mostly because they're such an effective rhythmic counterpoint to everything.
Tl;dr: they're difficult to get into, but everything from 1991 to '98 or so is fantastic death metal.
