Yep lol

I think if there's anything we can get from this exercise is OP needs a new genre. It's part of the defining feature.

Man you guys got mean. But really OP, you are looking for needles in a barn. Disgorge is by far the kings of brutal death metal, arguably tied only by Defeated Sanity. Their latest records are amazing and lyrically more apocalyptical than gore/snuff related, although Disgorge is over a decade from their last LP and 7 years since they told me they were working on a new one (so we'll never see it). My only point in bringing them up is the lyrics are almost entirely indecipherable, so why worry about it? I get it if it's personal moral crisis. I steer away from some stuff for my own reasons but if I stuck by dogma/doctrine I probably wouldn't be listening to much of anything. I pick and choose my spots.

Most of the brutal death metal genre bands are lyrically disgusting. That's just a part of the genre. There's a few mentioned here worth trying that are different, and a bunch that are not any where near that genre. Sounding brutal does not mean it is brutal death metal; we're talking genre not adjective. I'd sample stuff on Unique Leader Records, Willowtip Records, and Dark Descent Records or similar. If you go too far down the label rabbit hole you'll end up in territory you don't prefer.

Checking myself. I got carried away.

...brutal means violent doesnt it? Death means...well death...you want Brutal Death metal without any of the brutality or death? That's a tough one. Misogyny I'm there with and that can be easy, but without violence and death is a hard one.

Eh, I’d argue BDM has its own sound to differentiate it from regular Death Metal; though the gross lyrics are usually a prerequisite. If OP wants BDM style riffs without the lyrics always being about dookie and sexually assaulting women the closest thing would probably be slam? Maybe some Pathology?

I didn't say they can't include violent lyrics. If they don't include OTT shock-value violence, that's a plus for me, but I guess it's not a dealbreaker, at least not always.

However, in the brutal death metal world, misogyny is an epidemic in the lyrics department. It's not just a few isolated incidents, it seems to be the vast majority. That's part of the reason why a thread like this exists. It's not exactly the violence or gore that's my issue, but its presentation.

Troll alert.

"I like strawberry ice cream - but without strawberry!". "Horror movies are nice, but i would wish they all just hugged and kissed more - they should all be friends.".


Are you part of a new woke movement, cleansing "death" metal for death?

I hate how people are translating into how I'm trying to make things more "woke" or something.

There have been plenty of death metal bands in other death metal scenes that have NEVER had any misogyny/rape lyrics or OTT shock value gore lyrics.

In brutal death metal, it seems for every band that doesn't have any songs with shock value misogyny/rape/snuff lyrics, there are about four hundred who have them in most, if not all, of their songs.

Whereas in technical death metal, bands with those lyrics are close to nonexistent.

Why is it that technical death metal has never had this problem while brutal death metal does?
