There is loads and loads of great DM out there today, many already mentioned here. But, I don't get why The Agonist of all bands (and I really liked the new album for what it is) is here to represent "Death Metal". I don't associated them with DM in the slightest.

New Full Of Hell is more or less death metal.

I can get your point of view as to why you find modern era death metal. Those old school albums have a lot of "feeling", something that many modern bands have. Example, you put on "Altars of Madness", "pierced from within", "consuming impulse","slowly we rot", theres that dirty raw tone that Morrisound was so good at obtaining. Nowadays, the moods of the music are changing, but its the type of music where we have to think a lot more in order to get into; they require a lot more time. Some good bands at this are Hate Eternal, Vengeful, Gigan, Artificial Brain, Ulcerate, Ingurgitating Oblivion, etc.

Those, especially ITP, are simply old, not old-school style!

So these bands might be a little out of place here as I have always been terrible at classifying around this genre. All I know is there is absolutely brutal music that I enjoy. Let me know what you guys think! :)

Not sure how to embed..... looking up now.

^ That's all deathcore which is pretty far from the old-school death metal that the OP is into. I love Infant Annihilator and Thy Art Is Murder though.

Here's a few bands I don't think I've seen mentioned:
Sewercide


Scorched - one of the best new-old school death metal bands around imo


Horrendous


Power Trip - they're thrash metal but they've got an older sound


Gatecreeper

I can totally relate to the OP. I miss the 90's DM, especially the albums from Morbid Angel, Deicide, And Obituary. I'm probably just being nostalgic but I have yet to find any newer DM albums that come close.

I really don't think anything is ever going to compare to the classics. Maybe if James Murphy ever does that 2nd Disincarnate album, but that's probably close to never happening. I have some hope for the new Solstice, especially because Alex Marquez was going to play on it, last I heard.

Almost forgot about these guys, for fans of Morgoth/Death.
