Death's Death Metal Distribution Center

I go by the name of Icipher here but at my forum I am known as Death so hence the name.  Every Thursday (New Zealand Time) I will be posting about something that precludes to Death Metal or the like (or whatever takes my fancy at the time).

Today, Desultory are a little known Swedish Death Metal band from Stockholm.  They are from the same period as the classic Dismember and Entombed and released their debut Into Eternity at the same time.  Even though it made nowhere near as much impact as Left Hand Path and Like An Ever Flowing Stream I still consider it a classic, a lost classic if you will.

Desultory were a bit more American Death Metal than their counterparts but in no way is that a bad thing.  If you are interested check out Into Eternity.  Even though theses guys are still around and together they haven't put out an album since 1996.  They are worthy of praise so here is a vid and the album cover:

Entombed

I didn't realise this but 2009 marks the 20th anniversary of the birth of Entombed and that legendary Swedish Death Metal sound. So everyone play your favourite Entombed album and open a bottle of beer and celebrate.
This is what I will be playing:

Dismember

Dismember, the greatest of all the Old School Swedish Death Metal bands, even Entombed. Reason I say that they are better than Entombed is that Dismember are just so damned consistent. Every album is Swedish DM played to perfection. Melodic like Maiden brutal like Morbid Angel, a perfect mix.

My favourite album is 'Death Metal', it kills from beginning to end as well as having one of the coolest album covers known to mankind:

I am actually considering getting that as a tattoo,

Anyway do yourself a favour and get Death Metal, no self respecting Metalhead should be with out it!!
