Music is... dude.
"While I tend to gravitate toward the more extreme and/or progressive styles of metal, I quickly found myself getting tired of by-the-numbers death metal bands, i.e. most death metal bands. It stops being extreme when it stops being exciting. So, here are some extreme albums that manage to keep it creative while melting our faces."

They did for grindcore what Disfear did for hardcore a year earlier. Classic d-beat awesomeness.

A glimpse of the then-unnamed "death 'n' roll" style this band would essentially pioneer.

My favorite release of 2009 (as of September 2). I did not expect Goatwhore to rewrite any rules, but they certainly did.

"Mathcore" pioneers. These guys are too often overlooked.

Arguably Opeth's heaviest release to embrace the band's eclectic nature. Mikael Akerfeldt is God. End of story.

Brutal, unique, memorable. The soundtrack to the best movie never made.

The Meshuggah of the "-core" generation. Get back together, guys!

Proof that Nevermore's music is becoming too extreme for its britches. Jeff Loomis is God. End of story.

The apex of SYL's progressive sound. Devin Townsend is God. End of story.

Gojira's best. Nothing else sounds or feels like this, musically or lyrically. I call this "environmetal."

An absolutely essential album for any fan of progressive metal. Legendary. Tomas Haake is God. End of story.
