06.07.24 | 1 and 2 are amazing :o |
Hawks
06.07.24 | Mortician rulez bad inclusion. |
jrlikestodance
06.07.24 | Gotta be Six Feet Under. They were bad even when I saw them on acid. Also had to follow up Dying Fetus which may have made it worse |
anode
06.07.24 | i dont get the gore schtick, like just why? |
DarkSideOfLucca
06.07.24 | Oooooooof Six feet under had to follow fucking Dying Fetus? LOL
Oh man, what a drop off |
BookoftheFallen
06.07.24 | malevolent creation were never that great |
jrlikestodance
06.07.24 | It was during like Summer Slaughter 2011. I was amazed at how Nightmares was way worse than that set lol |
DarkSideOfLucca
06.07.24 | Ten Commandments and Retribution are awesome, dude
Never heard anything else they did though |
GiaNXGX
06.07.24 | Grave |
Ryus
06.07.24 | amon amarth |
evilford
06.07.24 | Amon amarth [2] |
evilford
06.07.24 | And yeah malevolent creation suck in all ways |
Frost15
06.07.24 | Six Feet Under is an obvious candidate and Mortician is the kind of band that it's so bad/goofy it ends up having some kind of charm. I don't get the Amon Amarth hate. Sure they are overhyped af but I would not say they are bad at all. |
jrlikestodance
06.07.24 | Amon Amarth should be cancelled for creating rowing pits |
Ryus
06.07.24 | lmao |
DarkSideOfLucca
06.07.24 | With Odin On Our Side, Twilight of the Thunder God and Vs The World are stone cold classics
Their last few are trash, but a weird band to pick for the worst in the genre |
Pikazilla
06.07.24 | infant annihilator by a landslide
stinky turd of a band |
Ryus
06.07.24 | @lucca ive managed to steer clear of most of the low rated dm shit so out of the bands that ive heard theyre prob my least favorite
like im sure 1 is dogshit but i havent heard it |
Pikazilla
06.07.24 | amon amarth got some slappers but twilight of the thunder god is eurovision metulz for the plebz |
DarkSideOfLucca
06.07.24 | Yeah I feel you, that's why I can't pick a least favorite outside of Six Feet Under - usually when I'm not feeling a band, I turn it off and forget about them
Infant Annihilator is annoying af though - can't stand those fake sounding drums and the overproduced nonsense, it doesnt suit death metal imo |
Pikazilla
06.07.24 | yeah the production and mixing on all ia records is a fucking warcrime |
DarkSideOfLucca
06.07.24 | Twilight is cheesy, true, but it's still got some great tracks
I guess moreso the other two are their stone cold classics imo, those are straight 5/5 albums, makes me want to grab a sword and storm into battle for Odin |
Wildcardbitchesss
06.07.24 | “Also had to follow up Dying Fetus which may have made it worse”
Really missed your chance to beat the crowd and trip at home lol |
jrlikestodance
06.07.24 | I still had to catch Black Dahlia, Whitechapel and Darkest Hour Wildcard!!!! It was a small price to pay |
Flugmorph
06.07.24 | amon amarth goated, rowing pits are cool and fun |
mystagogus
06.07.24 | Amon amarth [3] |
Flugmorph
06.07.24 | ryus has listened to the two most popular amon amarth albums lmao hasnt even jammed their early stuff what a poser |
Ryus
06.07.24 | damn thats crazy yo |
Flugmorph
06.07.24 | u just a stooped h8tor bro frfr |
Frost15
06.07.24 | "Infant Annihilator is annoying af though"
I 100% agree with that. That band is truly annoying |
Flugmorph
06.07.24 | they made a good album though |
Koris
06.07.24 | Waking the Cadaver should probably be on the list somewhere |
Pikazilla
06.07.24 | no they havent |
jrlikestodance
06.07.24 | Can't be down w rowing pits unless moshers are using ores as weapons |
Hyperion1001
06.07.24 | yeah it’s probably Amon amarth
Gatecreeper is another strong contender. |
Pikazilla
06.07.24 | does black tongue count btw
they are shite too |
jrlikestodance
06.07.24 | Lol I was gonna say Black Tongue, nice |
Koris
06.07.24 | I didn't even realize until recently that Black Tongue was an Infant Annihilator spinoff project |
ToSmokMuzyki
06.07.24 | all the ones called dm that arent |
Flugmorph
06.07.24 | wait what lol |
DarkSideOfLucca
06.07.24 | Jesus Christ the amon amarth hate here is off the chain
Did you guys miss the first decade and a half of their career? |
Flugmorph
06.07.24 | they did |
ToSmokMuzyki
06.07.24 | o yes and dying fetus swallows chodes whole |
Flugmorph
06.07.24 | kekko |
ToSmokMuzyki
06.07.24 | dont get the malecreation hate mid band but not the worst |
Flugmorph
06.07.24 | ive got a good pick for worst dm band of all time
Death By Axotomy |
Kusangii
06.07.24 | In Flames |
Hyperion1001
06.07.24 | the only metal band worse than Amon amarth are sabaton. |
ToSmokMuzyki
06.07.24 | wtf |
Kusangii
06.07.24 | Sabaton is almost the worst metal band period yeah |
Koris
06.07.24 | Loudwire declared Sabaton one of the "big 4" of power metal back in 2021, which will never cease to amuse me |
Kusangii
06.07.24 | HAHAHA what
That's not even physically possible since they released their first album in 2005 wtf |
Koris
06.07.24 | The other 3 bands were Helloween, Blind Guardian, and Dragonforce. The first two are obvious picks, and I can even understand Dragonforce's inclusion due to their role in shaping and popularizing modern power metal.
But of alllll the other influential bands they could've picked -- Stratovarius, Kamelot, Gamma Ray, Sonata Arctica, Rhapsody of Fire, etc. -- nope, they pick Sabaton instead |
Kusangii
06.07.24 | I don't even understand the Dragonforce pick. The only excuse is their popularity but there are soooo many other bands that were before them. Even Nightwish would have been a better pick. Honestly an embarrassing listing but it's a metal magazine after all, what can you expect. Popularity will always be more important than quality for them. |
bloc
06.07.24 | Gorguts probably |
Flugmorph
06.07.24 | what is quality |
Hawks
06.07.24 | Amon Amarth is 1000% not the worst lmao. I'd go with Oceano hands down tbh if u consider them dm. |
Koris
06.07.24 | @Kusangii: Yeah, Nightwish would have been a solid inclusion for its role in the symphonic side of power metal. Maybe Children of Bodom too, for being influential to the more extreme bands in the genre |
Wildcardbitchesss
06.07.24 | Can’t be a coincidence that Waking the Cadaver popped up directly underneath this thread for me.
It’s them. |
Flugmorph
06.07.24 | oceano is deathcore i think |
BookoftheFallen
06.07.24 | here this settles it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zuBftqliB6s |
Hyperion1001
06.07.24 | SNAKES |
Kusangii
06.07.24 | Snakes are kinda metal man. They are scary. |
Thranth
06.07.24 | some dm bands that i dont really like are decapitated, vader, gorod, asphyx
their are some pretty junky new dm bands like fulci too
|
ToSmokMuzyki
06.07.24 | sabaton is twice in my top pm list so cant be bad |
jrlikestodance
06.07.24 | Smok would call his mommy to pick him up after getting hit in the Fetus pit. Likely doesn't meet the weight requirement |
oltnabrick
06.07.24 | Mortician slander not tolerated |
BAT
06.07.24 | idk I feel like waking the cadaver is still better than six feet under, 'they've got some bops.'
also the tish and devourment are great, for stuff worse than that probably like guttural engorgement or annotations of an autopsy. and if metalcore/deathcore adjacent bands are allowed : Attila is some of the worst shit i've heard in my life |
jrlikestodance
06.07.24 | Attila are def top 10 worst bands of all time. Deathcore equivalent of Lil Dicky |
Hawks
06.07.24 | Mortician slander not tolerated [2] |
Hyperion1001
06.07.24 | agreed but please don’t call them the tish |
Hawks
06.07.24 | THE TISH LMAOOOOOO |
BAT
06.07.24 | jdawgs a bit of a clown but in the best way, what a character[for those not in the know 'justin horval' of hhb on yt, dudes pretty much like a time capsule back to mid 2000s dm elitism. mortician is a band he brings up like every 5 minutes lol] and I do think on an album basis morticians a little rough buuuut they're always fun. that 'final bloodbath session' album with actual drums is legit pretty solid |
Sevengill
06.07.24 | it's Tougher Than Nails. no question. absolute nadir of both music and concept. |
Emim
06.07.24 | infant annihilator by a landslide [2] |
ThyCrossAwaits
06.07.24 | Mortician rules and Devourment have some bangers
Y’all just can’t handle slam |
ThyCrossAwaits
06.07.24 | Before anyone gets after me I know Mortician aren’t slam |
SuzyC
06.08.24 | I'd definitely say Deicide was the worst death metal band. Saw them live 4 or 5 times (they were always on tour with a band I wanted to see), they never appealed at all. And Glen Benton was always really creepy. |
Hyperion1001
06.08.24 | what the fuck |
Hawks
06.08.24 | Deicide ripz and Glenn is awesome frigg off nerd. |
ScuroFantasma
06.08.24 | lmao at calling Deicide one of the worst dm bands, what a tell |
lols
06.08.24 | necrophagist |
ToSmokMuzyki
06.08.24 | >Smok Likely doesn't meet the weight requirement
i am not a 350 lb fatass agreed |
ToSmokMuzyki
06.08.24 | deicide sucks agreed |
FowlKrietzsche
06.08.24 | Gatecreeper [2] |
Sharenge
06.08.24 | devour deez nuts |
naughtcturnal
06.08.24 | Tougher Than Nails |
ToSmokMuzyki
06.08.24 | dont mind if i do
https://ibb.co/vs34kNs |
Jurtz
06.08.24 | So Six Feet Under we all agree on is bad, but Mortician and Devourment have a lot of fans here. I didn't expect that. |
rockarollacola
06.09.24 | pretty sure the world unanimously decided it was Six Feet Under a long time ago |
rockarollacola
06.09.24 | deicide sucks agreed
[2] |
Flugmorph
06.09.24 | the latest infant annihilator album is some of the best brutal death / deathcore ive ever heard tbh |
Flugmorph
06.09.24 | "Deicide ripz and Glenn is awesome frigg off nerd."
glenn seems like a pretty lame dude idk |
evilford
06.09.24 | Idk anything about Glenn but deicide rips and in no way is even close to being the worst dm band lol |
Hyperion1001
06.09.24 | six feet under can’t be because it’s very funny and that is worth at least something.
Amon amarth is absolutely humorless smelly person garbage so it has to be at the bottom. |
Jurtz
06.09.24 | Cattle Decapitation is also pretty bad imho. |
DarkSideOfLucca
06.09.24 | Deicides first 3 albums are pretty much perfect death metal - they also have Serpents and Stench of Redemption
There isn't an alternate universe that exists where Deicide is the worst death metal band of all time |
Flugmorph
06.09.24 | cattle decap is goated what lol |
Kusangii
06.10.24 | Did someone seriously think Deicide is the worst DM band? Lol. I can understand Six Feet Under and Amon Amarth to a degree, but not Deicide
Worst dm band is obviously Gorguts |
sonictheplumber
06.10.24 | honestly most of the "retro throwback" stuff of the past decade is pretty artistically worthless. even if a lot of it is serviceable background music and inoffensive im just entirely burnt out on any band trying to sound like incantation/gorguts/mortician in 2024 |
Sinternet
06.10.24 | probably ghoulgotha |
ScuroFantasma
06.10.24 | ^now that’s a good call |
Hyperion1001
06.10.24 | sonic lives! |
Jurtz
07.05.24 | I've updated the list based on your comments, please let me know if I forgot any bands that should be on the list! |
Jurtz
07.19.24 | Is your least favorite death metal band on the list? |
