I mostly listen to doom and thrash but I recently found Hellhammer which I’ve been digging. Possessed’s 7 Churches album is awesome. Not sure if those are death? Haha
Is there an active metal channel somewhere on the fediverse? I was thinking of creating one if there isn’t.
I get a lot of good recommendations following hashtags on Mastodon. I'm subscribed to #blackmetal and there's new recordings out at least daily.
New Sammath is glorious.
Those are from the transitional period. Hellhammer, Sodom, Bathory, and Slayer sort of laid the groundwork for death metal; Master and Possessed fleshed it out. By 1985, Sepultura had one version of the finished product, but really Morbid Angel, Massacra, and Deicide finalized the scope of the genre. Great period in history!
