Asphyx - The Rack
Pestilence - Consuming Impulse
Massacra - Enjoy the Violence

Excellent picks, Massacra and Asphyx are 2 of my favorite death metal bands ever.

Also Necrophobic's "The Nocturnal Silence" may have been released a few years after most of these bands already had a few albums under their belt, but it's incredible. Much metter than their newer, melodic blackened death stuff.

another great old school band that was not mentioned yet is cancer, one of my favs.it has james murphy on "death shall rise"album.the rest of them are very good too. what do uy guys think of them?

From what I remember Cancer was pretty average ! In fact the only british band that really does it for me is Benediction (Dave Ingram's era). The Grand Leveller is a masterpiece !!

I'm still digging old school DM I must say I've found some great stuff lately !
God Macabre (The Winterlong = Jewel. I strongly recommend this one to everybody)
Creepmime (for Atheist fans)
Utumno
Sorcery
Except Creepmime they are all Swedish ! god I love that country...

@Invoked yeah The Nocturnal Silence is really awesome, you may want to try Desultory's Into Eternity album, if you didn't yet. I was a bit disappointed by their new releases too, but they aren't that bad.

well, it's yopur opinion.i'll try to find some of these bands u mentioned thanx, even if there are so few swedish bands i like

I recognize and listen to some of the so-called "oldschool" bands here and I like them, I don't know if I like them necessarily "more" than modern death metal though.

The main problem is that it's so much effort to track down a lot of the early works nowadays.

Well, not necessarily, what with all the old classics that are being reissued these days. At the moment, looking in the Metal section of the music stores in town, and looking through mail order catalogues, it's almost like stepping back into the early 90's... Deleted albums and even previously unreleased albums and demo material are readily available.

There still are vibrationosofdoom where you can listen clasic metal albums, whit bnad quality and soem bands has myspace page and bands like Oliver Magnum, Death Angel, Grave Digger, Metal Church9 even in home page) alov listen werry early meterial of them and its good, because IMO tahy are woried about newers stuff and old thrash bands, I prefere in 80ties how novdays exept fiew(about heavy metal) Grave Digger are like Grave Digger

Even some bands alowed in hp dounlud whole early demos too

I can see there are here some that know the importance of the old school metal days...or at least they know something about it...others respect it but don't enjoy it...some like it but some come with very stupid points of view...
I am an old school metal fan... personaly i prefer old school death metal....but thrash will do just as fine...early bands kiscked ass...also i like the beginings of grindcore...maybe even hardcore ( but here i am off topic )...
I can say i like Atheist, Death ( only the first ), early Benediction ( also like the new but whatever...), Siege ( one of my favorite old school bands )...and Napalm Death ( grindcore era...but also like the new stuff...)...i also could include Terrorizer...

May be true where you're from, but here in Australia its still usually hard to just walk into a music store and just pickup death metal....let alone old-school death metal.

Im so much into DM these days, theres lot of good bands like Nile, Kataklysm, Decapitated etc. but the old school metal phase was just so awesome, you got dismember, entombed, death, and bands these days have crisp clear production and in my opinion take away from the DM feel, if you like good productions that cool, so do I, but Im just saddenned that we wont see atmospheric old school albums like left hand path or seven churchs. I really like old stuff over the newer DM.

I agree with you, and technical DM also takes us away from the old school DM.

Well imo old-school technical death metal is the best DM avialable, hehe

Talking about Old School,actully if i look at my C.D.s the only thing i see is old school , Especialy thrash metal : Sodom, Testament , Possessed , Sepultura , Death , Forbidden Athiest and so many.
And not only Thrash i love old rock.
It's so sad that alot of people forgot these things, or never had the chance to lestin to these great old days.

Once i was in a concert " tributes for Black Sabbath , Deep purple and Led Zipplen" And the vocalest is old maybe in his sixties , but he has a brilliant voice, one of the audiance started to shout " hey man we are in 2006" "those things sucks" ,ohh man when i see like those people i hate the whole world.

My oponion that even you don't lestin to Old School music , at least respect it , apreaciate it.Without those guyz there won't be metal , for me they are the godz .

Ok sorry I mean Ocko TV

Hellhammer (old Celtic Frost) is a band more users should check out, one of the fathers to Black and Death metal. Their epic song Triumph of Death is pure art!

I think this is discontinued since long ago so I don't think it's wrong to share this link... and you guys should do the same for rare old good stuff

Ah yes, I know this TV. This is a Czech TV, but Majster Kat have never been in this TV. Probably you saw the band with a similar name. This band is only underground group and TV is only dream for Majster Kat 's members.

Could never stand Liers In Wait for some reasons... I just think they resemble too much to early at the gates to be appreciated separatly.
I don't know about link sharing since nowadays the old stuff is being reissued...so you never know !
If you want outstanding swedish death, check God Macabre

Well, Liers In Wait has comon roots with At The Gates, also with Carbonized and other bands, but still they sound has nothing to do... I have no problems with the first two At The Gates albums, though..

I love this topic, now, I've to listen lot of new bands ^^

I have to admit that I don't know lot oh things about old school Death Metal...
But for the Black Metal... haaaa... I think old school Black was better than all these decadent norwegian bands :p

Thank you werry much etleistv one ppl agree whit me that Scandinavian metal in nowdays are owerated
Cheers my friend I drink Camus Cognac from 1961 for you, such great post

@Southern Wind : Talking about EPs alone, try also to get Depravity - Silence of the Centuries. Something great, and coming from Finland this time.

Finland's old school DM was awesome aswell. (Was just re listening to Convulse - World without God today morning!)

old school-/obscure-/underground death and thrash metal is exactly what i'm into. especially the swedish (NIHILIST, gorement, utumno, god macabre etc..), finnish (demilich, abhorrence, phlegethon, xysma, protected illusion etc...) and american scene (autopsy, dr. shrinker, slaughter, master, possesed etc..). i love the crispy production, the shitty demo sound and just everything that makes you clear, that you're listening to music from the mid'/late 80s and early 90s. everything was new, they hade ideas, they were young and pissed off and wanted to make the most brutal stuff that was ever recorded in music history. love it.

i've seriously never heard ov any ov the bands from the 'old school' that were mentioned
