Yeah, I'd pick Realm of Chaos or Warmaster.

Bitencourt29 · August 5th, 2012, 06:35 PM

^ It shows how great Bolt Thrower is. Ask 10 people what their favourite album is and you'll get a lot of different answers. I've always loved the IVth Crusade. Warmaster would come second. Their discography is awesome.

Not too bad...in my opinion, as long as the list has None So Vile, Symbolic/Leprosy, Elvenefris, Nespithe, Slumber of Sullen Eyes, Obscura, Consuming Impulse, and Effigy of the Forgotten, it's pretty much set to be a solid list.

God damn there were a lot of typos in my list...But yeah, I picked Mercenary...Its a nostalgic favorite of mine. I dont think you can go wrong with ANY of their albums tbh. I agree with Bitencourt, their whole discography is awesome.

Yes Sir, you can't go wrong with any of their albums. Just pick any Bolt Thrower album and have a great time. None so Vile is a good album, but it wouldn't make my top 40 DM albums list, I'd certainly mention some others before it.

Krow · August 6th, 2012, 09:05 PM

Yeah none so vile is a good enough album but I dont feel like its one of the best death metal albums. After looking at my list I feel like I should have made space for a Vital Remains (pre benton) album, the most underrated dm band of all time imo.

I also have a soft spot for mercenary actually. No guts, no glory is the first bolt thrower song i ever heard.

I don't see how you can put DoP over Close to a World Below. Also, I don't see how you can put Deicide's S/T over Legion. You forgot None So Vile, also.

TechnicalBarbarity · August 8th, 2012, 02:21 PM

CtaWB is pretty overrated, i think their first two and Unholy Cult are much better albums.

Lateralus14 · August 8th, 2012, 03:10 PM

^ this. I might prefer Failures For Gods too even.

Immolation has a fucking great discography. Easily one of my favorite death metal bands.
