- Type O Negative. One of the most unique bands in the history of metal, Type O Negative became one of the least likely million selling bands ever thanks to their uncanny knack of melding sombre, doomy, goth-tinged riffs with soaring, unescapable melodies.
- Anthrax. As card carrying members of thrash metal’s Big Four, Anthrax would easily stride onto any list of New York’s greatest musical achievements. Throughout their career they have hopped gleefully around the sub-genres, taking in their hometown’s love for punk rock and hip-hop to become one of metal’s most revere boundary breakers.
- Cannibal Corpse. Whilst they might be most commonly grouped in with the late ’80s Floridian death metal boom, due to their work with producer Scott Burns at Morrisound studio, Cannibal Corpse were born in Buffalo, New York.
- Helmet. While many people think that nu-metal is a bit laughable these days, the early idea of the genre, ultra-low, staccato, groove laden riffs pulverising you into submission, is still a good one.
Bands that play in the NY style or similar, without being necessarily based in the area. Mostly contemporary bands that are influenced by the original NYDM pioneers. Key bands: Funebrarum, Disma, Deeds of Flesh, Dead Congregation.

You’re here to check out death metal bands, after all? Well, I’m in one – and one of the purposes of this epic-size content is to make you listen to it. This is Desolator, old school death metal for fans of Immolation, Morbid Angel, Bloodbath and more. If you dig the song, please stream/download our music from Bandcamp and follow us on Facebook.
100. Runemagick99. Blood Incantation98. Sarpanitum97. VolturyonLet’s begin the top 50 with a hidden gem – Sweden’s The Curse. Sadly, the reincarnation of Kaamos has only released one EP, but it’s a damn good slab of old school Swedish death metal.
Poland is filled with quality death metal, and Lost Soul is certainly one of the best. Personally, I’m not that crazy about the super-ambitious newer material. However, 2005’s “Chaostream” kicks ass.
Cryptopsy’s first two albums are righteously counted as classics in both brutal and technical death metal. The band may sound a bit silly at times, but the music is insanely intense, abrupt and chaotic.
Amoral plays a catchy take on progressive death metal. Or well, played, before the band switched vocalist and released the terrible album “Show Your Colours”. Shitty power metal aside, that doesn’t make 2005’s “Decrowning” any less awesome.
The first two Grave albums “Into the Grave” and “You’ll Never See” are mandatory pieces of Swedish death metal. Both are raw high-quality examples of the style well-worth checking out, even if they don’t reach the heights of Dismember and Entombed.
Most people would rank Asphyx (#57) over this one, among their Martin van Drunen-fronted projects. I have to say I prefer Hail of Bullets, though – especially the first album “…Of Frost and War” (2008). The songs are both catchy and epic. Not to mention the guitar tone, which is insanely heavy.
There’s no denying the longevity of this band. Peak Malevolent for me is probably 1995’s “Eternal”, but the band has managed to release 13 full-length albums at this point, and most are good.
A new-era slam band among all the classic death metal bands?! Well, indeed. Degrade’s “Lost Torso Found” happens to kick unbelievable amounts of ass. So much that it even captures spot 43 on this list.
