Tough call here, lots of classic death metal albums that I dig. A lot of good ones mentioned. Nice to see Impetigo's Horror Of The Zombies get a mention, that's a fucking unheralded classic if I've ever heard one. "Wizard Of Gore" has one of the catchiest, grooviest riffs I've heard in a death metal song.

Entombed's Clandestine is a good call too, I would be inclined to agree, however, I just can't get it out of my admittedly too vivid imagination how much better that album would have been if L.G. had sang instead of Nick. I know it ain't all that productive to get hung up on "what if's", but still...Nick handled the vocals as best he could, the riffs and songs are AWESOME. Add Lars Goran to the mix, I think that would have been the best DM album of all time.

The first two Dismember albums are no slouch either, tough for me to choose between Like An Ever Flowing Stream and Indecent And Obscene, both have their merits. First two Grave albums, the first Unleashed, all on about the same par.

Death's Leprosy and Incantation - Onward To Golgotha both get regular play from me, another two I'd say are some of the best. Good calls there.

The first two Morbid Angel and the first two Immolation albums have a great balance of technicality, challenging arrangements, unexpected twists, etc. Classics.

Cannibal Corpse is an easy target, although I'll stand by Tomb Of The Mutilated. That still had the raw energy of the early lineup, and they pushed the envelope the best they could on that one.

I'll also give props to Ten Commandments, honestly, that was the only Malevolent Creation I ever got into.

Obituary's Cause Of Death probably has my favourite riffs of any DM album, and the James Murphy solos don't hurt its "cause" either.

Good call on Demilich - Nespithe, that album sounds like it was recorded on another planet.
