ANGELCORPSE - Exterminate CD

34 minutes long assault of the best death metal around with hateful, raspy, high-pitched screams: this is what I properly consider blackened death metal, while second era Behemoth, for example, are just an ex-black metal band switched to death metal in the likes of Deicide, but with a way more profound approach to the lyrical context. Even occult, satanic or Lovecraftian lyrical based death metal bands, are still within the major genre, and I think there's no need to introduce the blackened prefix in the case of, for example, Incantation's kind of obscure and blasphemous music. Angelcorpse is one of those very few bands for which a more specific label is required: they were unique and with not so many competitors even today: one of my favorite "crossover" bands of all time!
