Through the Ashes of Empires is the fifth studio album by groove metal band Machine Head.
 The band moved away from the nu metal genre featured on their previous two albums, and towards the style of their debut "Burn My Eyes" and their second album "The More Things Change..." It was released in the UK, Europe and Australia on the Roadrunner Records International label on December 16, 2003.
 At this stage, Machine Head still did not have an American record deal, having parted ways with Roadrunner Records US after the "Supercharger" album was released.
 "Through The Ashes of Empires" was such a success that Roadrunner Records US, in an unprecedented move, quickly offered Machine Head a new contract and the album finally reached North America on April 20, 2004.
Morbid Angel is an American death metal band based in Tampa, Florida formed in 1983 by guitarist and sole remaining original member Trey Azagthoth, original vocalist and bassist Dallas Ward, and original drummer Mike Browning.
 Widely considered as one of the most influential bands in the genre and important in the transition of death metal from its thrash metal roots, they were one of the first bands to incorporate guttural vocals, up-tempo blast beats, atonality in guitar playing, multiple tempo changes and dark atmosphere.
 They have been described as one of "the most influential and emulated bands in death metal", alongside Cannibal Corpse, and have been cited as an influence by many later bands.
 They were also the first death metal band to experience mainstream success in connection with being signed to Giant Records in 1992, heavy rotation of their music videos on MTV, and having the music video for the song "God of Emptiness" shown on an episode of "Beavis and Butt-head".
 Their first four albums are considered classics in the genre.
The Erosion of Sanity is the second full-length album by Canadian technical death metal band Gorguts.
 The album was released on January 19, 1993 through Roadrunner Records.
 Though it is now considered a milestone in the genre, the album's release coincided with the decline of death metal's popularity as a genre, and Roadrunner Records decided to drop the band from their roster.
 The band subsequently entered into a five-year state of limbo in which they ceased touring, during which all members except Luc Lemay left.
 Gorguts later returned with a new lineup, releasing their third full-length album Obscura in 1998.
Swedish death metal is a death metal music scene developed in Sweden.
 Many Swedish death metal bands are associated with the melodic death metal movement, thus giving Swedish death metal a different sound from other variations of death metal.
 Unlike American death metal groups, the first Swedish bands were rooted in punk rock.
 Although Norway is known for its quantity of black metal, Gothenburg in Sweden has a large melodic death metal scene, while Stockholm is known for its more raw death metal scene.
Incantation is an American death metal band that was formed by John McEntee and Paul Ledney in 1989.
 They are one of the leaders in the New York City death metal scene along with fellow bands Suffocation, Mortician and Immolation, even though the band is currently located in Johnstown, Pennsylvania.
 To date the band has released ten full-length records, two live records, four EPs, two singles, three splits, one DVD, and three demos.
 Their most recent album "Profane Nexus" was released through Relapse Records in August 2017.
 The band have maintained a significant cult following and underground popularity since the 90s, and are considered to be highly influential on a range of later death metal bands including Dead Congregation, Grave Miasma, and Portal, who are often described as 'cavernous death metal'.
 Incantation's music frequently draws on anti-Christian, Satanic and occult themes, and the band is notable for mixing widely varied tempos into their music, often playing slow, down-tuned passages similar to those performed by death-doom bands like Autopsy.
The Best of Deicide is a compilation album by American death metal band Deicide.
 It is a collection of 20 songs from Deicide's catalogue with Roadrunner Records, the label with whom the band had recently ended its career-long record deal.
 However, no songs from "In Torment in Hell" are included on this compilation.
George "Corpsegrinder" Fisher (born July 8, 1969) is an American extreme metal vocalist for the American death metal band Cannibal Corpse, the lesser-known melodic death metal band Paths of Possession, and the lesser-known extreme metal supergroup Serpentine Dominion.
 He recorded two albums with Florida's Monstrosity before leaving and joining Cannibal Corpse in late 1995, replacing vocalist Chris Barnes, who is now the vocalist for Six Feet Under.
 He also provided guest vocals for New York technical death metal band Suffocation on the songs "Reincremation" and "Mass Obliteration" from their debut album, "Effigy of the Forgotten", as well as guest vocals for California deathcore band Suicide Silence on the song "Control" from their fourth album, "You Can't Stop Me".
 Fisher also performed guest vocals on Job for a Cowboy's 2014 album "Sun Eater" on the song "The Synthetic Sea."
 As a death metal vocalist, Fisher employs the "death growl" extended vocal technique.
Symbolic is the sixth studio album by American death metal band Death, released on March 21, 1995 by Roadrunner Records.
 The album was remastered and reissued on April 1, 2008 with five bonus tracks.
 It is the only album to feature Bobby Koelble and Kelly Conlon on guitar and bass, respectively, and the second and last album to feature drummer Gene Hoglan.
Deicide is an American death metal band formed in 1987 by brothers and guitarists Brian and Eric Hoffman and drummer Steve Asheim as "Carnage", then hiring bassist/vocalist Glen Benton and becoming "Amon".
 They would later change the band name to Deicide in 1989.
 The band rose to mainstream success in 1992 with their second album "Legion", and is credited as the second best-selling death metal band of the Soundscan Era, after Cannibal Corpse.
 Since their debut album in 1990, Deicide has released eleven studio albums, one live album, two compilation albums and two live DVDs.
 In November 2003, their first two albums, "Deicide" and "Legion", were ranked second and third place respectively in best-selling death metal albums of the SoundScan era.
 Deicide is known for their lyrics, which cover topics such as Satanism, anti-Christianity and blasphemy.
 Their lyrics have resulted in bans, lawsuits and criticism from religious groups and the public.
In Torment in Hell is the sixth studio album by American death metal band Deicide.
 It was released on September 25, 2001, on Roadrunner Records.
 The album received strong criticism from the metal underground for what many critics view as rushed production and lackluster songwriting.
 The label pressured the band for a quick follow-up to "Insineratehymn", but Deicide failed to meet the deadline of its original release date of July 31.
 The band rarely plays any songs from this album live.
