Introduction
What the Hell is this? - This is an attempt to list the Metal World's treasure of Death Metal and Grindcore releases. The discography was until now maintained by Thomas Wolmer (d90-two@nada.kth.se), but now is maintained by Bill Vogel III [Missouri, U.S.A.] (wbvogel[@]aol[.]com) who in the rest of this document refers to himself as The Keeper. The list is a descendant of the late Metal List From Hell, once kept by Travis Johnson (travisj@beau.adp.wisc.edu) and originally created by one (andersom@tramp.colorado.edu). The document is however copyright 2008 by Bill Vogel III. Now of course there are mistakes, and omissions in this list. I would like to make this a complete list of all the Death Metal, and derivatives for the entire world. But that is an impossible task. I cannot be everywhere and know everything, I am not God. Please send comments and information to me at the following email address: wbvogel[@]aol[.]com I welcome all additional information. But if you strictly write to gripe, and provide no useful info...then don’t even bother. One whiney little individual wrote me to tell me how terrible the list was, and how they didn’t have the time to take out of their little self-important life’s schedule to provide what they felt was the correct information. To people like this I say, “Get outta my face.” I accept all comments, but why should I waste my time on a loser attitude like this? I don’t and won’t. Also, don’t email me and say like “your music sucks,” etc. Flamers can screw-off...I don’t need the hassle. It’s hard enough to keep-up with the legitimate emails. Your opinion is your business, so keep your mouth shut. This is an informational list, not a chat room or a bravado/ego contest. BUT, to all those that provide me with their generous help and expertise, in the past and future, I thank you all from the very catacombs of my cold heart. God’s Eternal blessings to you all. Later. While I want the list to be more inclusive than it has been in the past, I question what should be included. Should I put Slayer and Kreator on the list? While they were definitely influential on the style, do they honestly sound Deathly by today’s standards? Some say yes, others say no. And then if I do include them, should I include Voivod who in their early days was similar to Kreator. Send me your comments. What is Death Metal? And what is Grindcore? Death Metal**** Death Metal is an extremely aggressive form of Heavy Metal that incorporates brutal guitar playing with Growl style vocals (which are also referred to as Deathgrowl or Deathgrunt vocals...some of the silly critics call them “gargle with glass,” “gargle with razorblades,” or trash-compactor” vocals). It is the heaviest form of Metal in existence. And it, in its pure form, is totally unique from all other styles of Metal. Also, many Death Metal bands use double bass drums. Grindcore Metal**** Grindcore (a.k.a. Grind) is a derivative (offshoot or hybrid) style of Death Metal. It is a mixture of Death Metal and Hardcore Punk that is of the REALLY FAST variety. The term was coined by a member of Napalm Death. But it is different than Deathpunk Metal which is more like Death Metal mixed with early style Punk. It tends to not be as heavy as pure Death Metal (but of course this varies from band to band, etc.), in sheer power, and has a much more rhythmic nature to its sound. It almost has a mechanical feel, in a very frentic and manic manner. There as a rule are no tempo changes, and the songs tend to be short. There is also really no use of melody. It’s sheer, fast rhythm that has no mercy. (If you were pounding-out sheer attitude with brutal aggression at a speed only rivaled by God you’d get tired too.) Being super heavy and rhythmic, and not to mention FAST, it makes the fastest Thrash seem totally whipped. Prime examples of the style are: Napalm Death (of course, they are the Kings Of Grindcore.), early Carcass, Brutal Truth (one of the best examples), Exit-13, Macabre, Filthy Christians, Enemy Soil, Old Lady Drivers, Heresy, Bolt Thrower, etc. Many Death Metal bands experiment with Grind, so the two styles tend to blur a bit. It’s hard to describe, but killer to listen to. Deathpunk (a.k.a. Crust, Crustcore, or Crusty Punk)**** Deathpunk is simply a mixture of Death Metal and Punk Rock. The band that best personifies this style is Disrupt. Other bands include Merauder, Destroy, etc. Black/Death Metal**** Simply put it is a mixture of Black Metal (screach style vocals and occult or mythology based lyrics...sort of reminds one of the Linda Blair character from the “Exorcist” movie). Examples of this style include: Incantation, Belial, Blasphemy (Black/Grind), Dissection, Cradle Of Filth, Bathory, etc. There are basically three styles of Black/Death Metal: 1.) Northern Style - (a.k.a. Norwegian Style, Scandinavian Style, etc.). This style originated in the Norway, Sweden, and Finland area. It is basically very heavy Black Metal with vocals that are a mix of a screech and a growl (a raspy growl). This fits bands like Immortal, Darkthrone, Dissection, Cradle Of Filth, etc. 2.) Brutal Black Death - This style incoporates a brutal Death sound with Black style lyrics with some screeching [but used only slightly]. This includes bands like Incantation, etc. 3.) Black/Doomdeath - This one mixes Black Metal and totally brutal Doomdeath. This includes bands like Bethlehem, Carpathian Forest, and Carpathian Full Moon. Industrial/Death Metal**** A mixture of Industrial [i.e. use of samples] and Death Metal. Example: Dead World, Purge, Candiru, Fear Factory, Meathook Seed, Skin Chamber, Hybernoid, Anorexia Nervosa, etc. Doomdeath Metal**** My favorite style. A simple fusion of Doom Metal [slow, heavy guitar with deep and slow vocals] and Death Metal. Examples: Paradise Lost, Pyogenesis, Anathema, Cerebral Fix, My Dying Bride, Celestial Season, Enchantment, Amorphis, Divine Eve, Renaissance, Cemetary, Nightfall, Ceremonium, Darkside, Blood Divine, etc. Of course there are hybrids of this style as well. An example would be the band Mindrot which mixes Doomdeath Metal and Grindcore Metal. This band is BRUTAL! Aggro /or/ Aggro/Death Metal**** A chunky, rhythmic style of Metal with a mixed vocal style (usually growled and clean). It’s typically not as heavy, has a slight Hardcore tinge, and is more ‘radio friendly.’ Definitive bands of this style include Slipknot, System Of A Down, Kittie, and American Head Charge. (ONLY the ones with at least a slight Death Metal influence will be included here.) Reading This List**** How am I supposed to interpret the unintelligible mess that makes up the list? - The entries in the list look like this: Artist: Country birth_year-demise_year (comments on state of existence.) # General comments on the band Name Of Release/format/release year [Record Label(s)] (comments on contents.) # Comments on this particular release ... If the band is currently alive, there is of course no demise year, and if one or both of the dates are unknown they are left out. If the band has existed during several periods there are several intervals. If the format field is missing then the item is an ordinary full-length LP/CD/MC release; a non-full- length release is usually called an EP or possibly a CDS or 12" if that is the only available format. Inconsistencies in the notation would not surprise The Keeper. To save space, the record label names have been abbreviated; a key is available at the end of the list. But I do hold the option not to abbreviate if I see fit. At last, is there any legal junk to remember? Not really. This document is freeware (public domain), you are allowed and encouraged to copy, spread and make it publicly available, provided that you do not charge any money for it. Use the information in it in any way you can think of, but when you quote straight from the list, The Keeper would appreciate if you mention your source. What is not allowed is spreading versions of the document with any of the text changed. If you want any changes made, tell The Keeper, OK? And BTW, even though The Keeper sometimes spreads versions of the lists without this header section, don't give such a headless list to anyone who hasn't gotten a headed one. History Of Death Metal*** Most of the so-called Heavy Metal historians lay the creation of Death Metal at the feet of the now infamous Black Metal band Venom. Venom rode-in from the dark abyss in 1979 in what is now called the NWOBHM (New Wave Of British Heavy Metal). They were part of this flood of bands that included the likes of Iron Maiden, Samson, Witchfinder General, Witchfynde, Praying Mantis, etc. And yes, Venom did have some very subtle Death Metal in their sound. But their style ran more towards what is called Old Style (a.k.a. Old World, German Style) Death Metal. Many other bands influenced the sound of this style of Death Metal. Such bands as Kreator, Slayer, early Voivod and others were influential (although many of these would now not be categorized as Death Metal). Death Metal as we now know it wasn’t spawned until now legendary bands like Possessed, Bathory, and Celtic Frost tempered the sound in the early 1980’s. After that the torch was picked-up by bands such as Death, Entombed (one of my favorites), Morbid Angel, Carcass, Master, Repulsion, and Napalm Death came into being. These bands intensified the power of the instrumental, and intensified the growl of the vocals. This happened in the mid to late 1980’s. Since then Death metal has sprung into several new directions such as Industrial Death Metal (i.e. Dead World, Purge, Candiru), Doomdeath Metal (early Paradise Lost, Anathema, Celestial Season, My Dying Bride, etc.), etc. Where will Death Metal go next? No one knows for sure, but as long as the style keeps its progressive nature and its underground attitude it will continue to thrive. Stay savage. Farewell. William Vogel III February 14, 2008 A.D.
