I'm a BIG fan of death metal, so i decided to make a topic to see which of these bands is most favored among you armorgamers.(I'm sorry if I don't have all the most popular choices, but if you happen to think of another really good one, feel free to post it.

1.Dethklok
2.Job For A Cowboy
3.DevilDriver
4.Brain Drill
5.Lamb Of God (I've only heard about 2 songs by them, but I believe they're pretty popular)

I know it's limited, and you may have never heard of some of these bands, but feel free to take your pick!

Nickelback is definitely the best.


I just fell out of my chair laughing. That was sarcasm right? O__o

My favourite death metal bands are Souldrainer, Aeveron and Skyfire (Skyfire are death metal, right?).

The first two I agree with.
Skyfire is melodeath, even leaning towards power metal, so yeah, it has similarities with death metal.

More of my favorites are:
Bloodbath
Be'lakor (sorta death metal)
Debauchery
In Mourning
One Man Army and the Undead Quartet

There are either way to many trolls or ignorant people in here.

Death (the band) forever.

Spyre, what do you think of Opeth? They're death metal but incorporate a lot of other elements in their songs, and they also do other types of music.

I've never really listened to Opeth, to be honest. They never really caught my attention.

Nickelback? Death metal? You got to be kidding me, right? Anyway, Lamb of God is the best band I've seen mentioned here, because at least they have a tolerable song. And, by the way, Metallica is not death metal, it's thrash metal.

Lamb of god is my personal favorite. Mark Morton is so technical and ferocious on his riffs and solos and chris adler is amazing behind the drumset. I like them cuz they aren't so hardcore that you are so repulsed by the sound of them that you want to vomit, but still heavy enough to give you somethin to headbang to.

Coup de Grace
Labyrinthe
North of the Woods
Take this to your grave
Giants Among us
Crusher destroyer
At the Hands of Death
Medea Rising
From the Carnival of horrors
Martyr Defiled
By Blood and Iron
ISYSWASFD
Murder on the Dancefloor

Also just to add something, I read some earlier responses. And you guys are just talking about the bands that everyone knows about, some of it is ok but honestly it's just a commercial band that does the same thing in every song. I'm not saying there all bad but try listening to some of the bands I listed, you will notice a difference from them and "Dethklok" and other bands. Real Deathcore/Deathmetal bands are some of the ones I posted.

Dethklok is cool, so is Lamb Of God, and Amon Amath but the only song i like by them is Death in Fire.
