Which bands play in B?

I only know of Carcass and old Arch Enemy, im assuming the majority of death metal bands use it too?

A lot of them do, yeah. it'd take me a while to list them all. some other ones you might be familiar with:
Blood Ritual, Bolt Thrower, At the Gates, Cannibal Corpse, Cryptopsy, Ghoul, Grave, Hate Eternal, Hypocrisy, Immolation, Incantation, Origin, etc.

As far as I know, Hate Eternal is in C#. Some songs off "Conquering The Throne" were in D I think. At least "Catacombs" sounds like it is....that song is friggin' good!

Most bands I can think of do Bb (or A#) like Vile and Cannibal Corpse....Rusty Cooley.

Cannibal Corpse is Bb but yeah on those other ones. There are really tons. Goto metaltabs.com and just browse through the bands, thats an easy way to see what all the bands tune to.

Dark Tranquility tune to C# and I'm pretty sure the Deftones' seven-string stuff is tuned Ab Db Ab Db Gb Bb Eb, but don't quote me on that.

I thought Amon Amarth are down in A standard?

I can at least play "Fate of Norns", "Pursuit of Vikings" and "An Ancient Sign of Coming Storm" on my B-tuned seven. I'm also quite certain that "With Oden on Our Side" is in B.

Haha! So true! I saw them on the Chaos AD tour, then bought Roots when it came out and was like...."What the fuck is this!? Korn's new disc!?"

So, yeah, D standard until Roots is correct. From then on...I have no clue.
