Which old school death metal scene do you prefer?

I forgot the Belgium and Finland scenes . Sorry about that.

...and yeah I voted the US scene too. That´s were it all started and some of my favorite old school death metal artists and releases come from the US scene.

The UK scene had a few really strong acts too, but they were actually very few.

The same can be said about the German, Danish, Norwegian, Finland, and French scenes.

I´d argue the Dutch scene was really strong, but of course number two after the US scene is the Swedish scene which spawned several great artists.

Have you heard Acrostichon? Their debut is one of my favorite death metal albums, with some great contrast between almost death-doom and thrashier parts:

There were a handful of bands from Florida, but none of them sounded much like each other. You had another few bands from New York who were a bit more extreme. In Scandinavia there were bands who had a similar sort of sound. There were a couple of insane bands from Austria, there was a deathgrind style coming out of the UK, there was some real lo-fi stuff from Brazil, fast shit from Canada, some innovation from Aussie, and a strong, innovative but way underground scene right at home.
