I would've liked to see them go full caverndeath x Atheist but this album feels more like Dream Unending and Cynic. Was a little disappointed by that honestly but I'm glad to see them still kicking and seeing so many people enjoy them :)

Gooodddddddddd i love this band
This album is so sick, has that stadium black metal vibe that Dissection does at times, ended up in my aoty list for 2022
I liked the self-titled one they released a fair bit, still listen to it from time to time, but apart from that nothing else really grips me. There's also way too much death metal coming out for me to focus on Obituary like that haha. Their first few are unfuckwithable though if you ask me!
One of my favorites this year, they make the swedeath style sound refreshing almost
Really liked their last album, can't wait to hear this one!
Send me a message if you do! Hope you dig it, when I say it's chaotic I mean it haha
Some good suggestions in here by @SilentViking and @DoomAxe already, but I'm gonna throw in some lesser known personal favorites as well if you're feeling a little more thirsty:
- Plague (Greece)
- Obscene (US, Indiana) (esp. for that Obituary sound)
- Molder (US, Illinois) (autopsy-esq)
- Pathogen (Philippines)
- Ectoplasma (Greece) (they mix a lot of styles though)
- Savage Deity (Thailand) (esp. for morbid angel, a lil rougher production though)
- Thulsa Doom (Italy) (esp. for morbid angel, possessed)
You can also check out legacy bands like Monstrosity who are still holding the flag high 😉
Rude and Skeletal Remains are probably the best shouts hell yeah, adore the rest of the bands too, especially Sijjin!
I really really like that band, it's a continuation of Massacre and all right? They make it sound really refreshing and just fun to listen to
the finnish branch of death metal was always weird as all hell lol
This is so tight. Can't wait to give it a spin, that FFO is tailor-made for me haha
