The Black Dahlia Murder is releasing their new album, Nightbringers, this week and this will be their only area appearance on this tour to support it. Also on the bill is the legendary Suffocation! One of the pioneers of brutal death metal, Suffocation gets some of the wildest mosh pits going with just the twitch of the wrist. Tech death band Decrepit Birth released their first album in seven years this summer. They put on a killer set at Maryland Deathest this year, do not miss their return to Baltimore! Necrot is a new death metal band from Oakland featuring members of Vastum and Saviours. Opening band Wormwitch is also new. The crusty black metal band’s debut album just dropped in May. Now check out these videos of the bands below and be sure to leave a comment telling me what your favorite death metal band of all time is!

I’d say my favorite death metal band would have to be Cannibal Corpse. Buffalo (by way of FL) represent. Very rare to have a lead singer change and for the band’s music overall to improve. Many factors there, even if Corpsegrinder is a badass.
That said I simply cannot just have one favorite. No one can, because everyone’s default should be Death—as is mine! Chuck Schuldiner is to the genre as Gretzky is to hockey. Maybe not the first, but the greatest among greats.
