1991 was the YEAR of Death Metal indeed! I can´t conceive that you ignore many Classic Albums! well, this is my list: 1. Massacre - From Beyond. 2. Malevolent Creation - The Ten Commandment. 3. Carcass - Necroticism - Descanting the Insalubrous. 4. Suffocation - Effigy of the Forgotten. 5. Gorguts - Considered Dead. 6. Sarcofago - The Laws of the Scourge. 7. Massacra - Enjoy the Violence. 8. Cancer - Death Shall Rise. 9. Morbid Angel - Blessed are the Sick. 10. Entombed - Clandestine.

[@BrightInThePocket]

I’m surprised that Pestilence’s Testimony of the Ancients didn’t make the top ten, but considering the competition I can understand. Such a stacked year. It was the year I discovered the genre, as a 14 year old. My personal number one would be Death’s Human.

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

Yes 1991 seems to be the best year for DM. Cheers!

[@Miodrag177]

Testimony is the best by far for me.

[@GoshindoTanaka]

Testimony of the ancients is top 5 no doubt

Human is a masterpiece .. I was 18 at the time

My favourite year for death metal. My list is: 1. Suffocation - Effigy of the Forgotten 2. Carcass - Necroticism - Descanting the Insalubrious 3. Immolation - Dawn of Possession 4. Funebre - Children of the Scorn 5. Pungent Stench - Been Caught Buttering 6. Dismember - Like an Ever Flowing Stream 7. Unleashed - Where No Life Dwells 8. Gorguts - Considered Dead 9. Morbid Angel - Blessed Are the Sick 10. Bolt Thrower - War Master

A buddy of mine was in a death metal band called Cross Fade in Long Island back in the early 90s. They used to play gigs with Morbid Angel, Autopsy, and Malevolent Creation. They were friends with Suffocation and would go to each other's shows. After a gig one night they ended up getting lost in Bedford Stuyvesant in the middle of the night. Their truck was loaded down with their gear. Through some miracle they were never robbed or murdered. Once some cops stopped them and helped them out they were in shock that the band had been stopping at red lights, etc. They said that given all the gear they were carrying that they wouldn't have pulled them over if they had just driven through the lights. Stories about Brooklyn scare me

*Clandestine* is by far the greatest Entombed album imo and one of the pinnacles of the genre, period. It goes as far as you can go creatively in terms of creepy, sinister melodies without landing on melodic death metal territory or technical noodling.

Necroticism is forever one of my favorites in any genre.

Definitely a more approachable album for a non death metal fan to get into. Mainly cos it's got a lot of melody & Jeff handles most of the vocals which are easier to understand, but it's still heavy as fuck \m/

[@PolkCountyWIProgressive]

If I hadddd to pick, I would go with Effigy of the Forgotten by Suffocation. I think In the Beginning God Created…Master was quite underrated. They had one of the most aggressive tones of 1991. I thing Grave did a pretty good job too; I tend to like it more than Dismember and Unleashed for the same year.

It's crazy to hear how much variety and unique sounds were produced in one year from the masters of DM. As much as I love BM, it's funny how their reasoning for diverging into their own scene was due to their disdain for DM and how "samey" they sounded and "sold out." Nothing could be further from the truth

@@adrianrisy3360 As well as all the bands going to Morrisound to get similar sounding albums. They had a point I guess... But I still love the albums produced there, not a huge black metal fan to be honest.

[@kylanmcnichols6525]

Funny to hear the human waste cut of Crypts when mentioning Effigy. I'd have to swap out Mental Funeral for Considered Dead, and definitely put Pestilence in Dismember's spot. I could drop any of the bottom 8 except Atheist for Darkthrone's Soulside Journey. That one is criminally overlooked since they became a radically different band on the next album. Suffo deserves #1, but it's really tough to choose between them and Chuck. That's picking children at that point.

1991 is a pretty fucking insane year for death metal when you think about it. Every death metal band that could release an album that year did. It's no wonder after flooding the market black metal took over, with a similar overflow happening in 1994. 1. Morbid Angel- Blessed Are The Sick 2. Carcass- Descanting The Insalubrious 3. Autopsy- Mental Funeral 4. Dismember- Like An Ever Flowing Stream 5. Immolation- Dawn of Possession 6. Entombed- Clandestine 7. Asphyx- The Rack 8. Unleashed- Where No Life Dwells 9. Athiest- Unquestionable Presence 10. Massacre- From Beyond Honorable mention: Death- Human

I remember in 1991 seeing the cover of Unleashed "Where no life dwells" inside a record store. I will never forget the eerie feeling, I was 15 years old. I don't know what happened to me..this was no Sodom, Kreator or Helloween... The band logo was reminding me of a gigantic spider web. I just knew it had to be very threatening music.. even much more than Slayer. Days later I saw someone wearing an Obituary shirt at my school. I was in awe. WTF had happened to my school mates wearing Sodom "Agent orange" shirts???? Where were they??? They swapped.. almost all of them. To the mighty force of Death Metal. And then I saw a blonde long haired boy with a leather jacket and a big Deicide patch on his back at the supermarket . He barely spoke German, he was from Poland. I was deeply impressed. We got brothers and he showed me his collection. From this day, death metal was my new religion. And unfortunately, bands like Maiden, Helloween and Kreator... I've lost interest into them for a solid amount of time. Bands like Anthrax, Kreator or Metallica betrayed my cause. Death Metal now was trve metal for me.

Morbid Angel is an amazing death metal band to see live. Blessed are the sick is a killer album. When you do another rank em all video please rank either Iced Earth or Judas Priest. STAY HEAVY!!!

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

Maybe some day! Cheers! 🤘🏻

[@Powermad-bu4em]

I saw them with Pantera in 2001. They kicked ass.

[@subgum3403]

Iced earth!!!!!!

[@josephbobbitt7759]

@@Powermad-bu4em I saw that tour too. You're right they were awesome.

[@edwardstites3640]

I remember getting Dawn of Possession on cassette and not getting into it so I went back to the record store and exchanged it for Necrotism. It took me years to appreciate Dawn for what it is.

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

Cheers!

[@sassaniandynasty3796]

Bro i think 89 also deserves a list of its own. Many bands released their debut in 89. Obituary, Morbid angel, pestilence etc

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

We did a combined 80's death metal since there wasnt that much DM in the 80s, at least not more pure DM. Cheers!

[@wizun]

Can't believe this list!!! Without numbers my short list: Immolation - Dawn of Possesion, Grave - Into the Grave, Morbid Angel - Blessed..., Unleashed - Where no life..., Carcass and Autopsy, Blasphereion - Rest in Peace, Darkthrone - Soulside..., Immortalis - Indicium de mortis and NUMBER ONE two bands and albums: legendary Bolt Thrower - Warmaster and mighty and awesome Massacre - From Beyond. Suffocation sukcs, and few more on you're list. Massacre rulezzz!!!

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

Cheers!

[@TheGreatBaronOBeefDip]

You played the Human Waste version of Infecting the Crypts.

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

Oh did I? well, shit happens. :D

[@muco2ran]

I was gonna say the same thing thanks

[@abboed.4076]

Yes. 😀👍 (I do prefer that version, for having a more primitive, raw sound.)

[@fahrezirafid8]

Both released on 1991

[@Sean-fv4wi]

The album version is better produced in my opinion, the guitar tone is thicker & the vocals are more brutal. 30 years old now & it still utterly destroys \m/

[@ChildrenAtLakeBodom]

My top 10 of 1991 would be: 10: Ten Commandments - Malevolent Creation 9: Considered Dead - Gorguts 8: Mental Funeral - Autopsy 7: Effigy Of The Forgotten - Suffocation 6: Clandestine - Entombed 5: Human - Death 4: Necroticism: Descanting The Insalubrious - Carcass 3: Mortification - Mortification 2: Like Ever Flowing Stream - Dismember 1: Arise - Sepultura

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

Cheers!

[@kene666]

Another great year with a couple of my all time favs , clandestine , like an ever flowing stream and war master are classics 🔥

Nice top ten! But I would of ranked them differently. 🤘

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

Cheers!!

[@BanjoSick]

Few things are as 90’s as the papyrus font on the Clandestine cover, haha.

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

Cheers!

[@Morbidous]

Lovely year for Death Metal...I would like to add Xysma-Yeah as an h.mention.

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

Cheers! 🤘

[@tjcaruthers5593]

Pretty good list. Its a surprise Butchered at Birth wasnt included. Unleashed Where No Life Dwells should of made the list over Entombed Clandestine. Dismembers Like an Ever Flowing Stream was another surprise not so much it being on the list but how high on the list.

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

yeah, Butchered was in 11th place. Cheers!

Butchered at birth is my favorite of 91

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

Cheers!

First I thought at you forget Suffocation, but it was number one. 🖤 Cannibal Corpse - Butchered at birth is definitely one of my favorite from 1991.

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

Cheers!

[@UhHellandDoomIguess]

Is that literally the best year for death metal? So many good classics

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

pretty much. Cheers!

[@aharriae]

Great list, but I expected to see Testimony of the Ancients on the top 10

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

It might have been on my personal top 10, but I still consider myself to be a death metal noob. Since this was an internet vote. ;) Cheers!
