Kinda wanted to jumpstart some conversation here how people usually would back in the PA.
I'm not much of a death metal guy, but these seem like the big groups in the genre, and are pretty seperate from each other in aesthetic and mentality. I know they all have a huge following in their respective genres; Opeth with the prog heads, Cannibal Corpse with the straight forword gory following, In Flames with the Gothenburg melodeath scene, Morbid Angel with the American old school headbangers, and Nile with the brutal/tech metalheads.
Mostly PA people are consistant with this site, therefore I expect Opeth to win by a large margin, but I'd like to see who else puts up a fight. While my favorite is indeed Opeth, I'll give Nile my vote.

I went to "Cannibal Corpse" as a result. My personal favorite is Suffocation and Autopsy. It listens to Death and Emtonbed well.

Currently, I'd say Cannibal Corpse. Opeth could have easily had my vote as well. I've just been in more of a CC mood lately.

It was a tough choice between In Flames and Nile but I went with In Flames. Very few albums are as good as Whoracle, and Black-Ash Inheritance might just be my favourite Metal EP.

I'm not too familiar with Morbid Angel, Cannibal Corpse or Nile so no vote. I loved In Flames around the Colony/Clayman era but after that lost all interest. Opeth on the other hand

Opeth, i'm bot the biggest Death Metal fan, and i really like Mikeal's voice. And the way they combine Metal with some softer stuff.

Opeth is my favorite out of the above mentioned but I�ve always had a soft spot for Morbid Angel too. I saw Morbid Angel on the tour for Covenant and it�s one of the best live concerts I�ve yet attended.

It'd be a crime for me to vote against the mighty Opeth in this one

Opeth.
I really don't care too much for most death metal unless it's progressive. |

I have to go with Nile. Excellent techical band. Great for when you just need a blast of everything metal you can imagine. Annihilation of the Wicked is a masterpiece.

![]() Someone should use the final words of Von Unaussprechlichen Kulten as their signature.
