2017 was a great year for Death Metal, with many legendary bands dropping new releases. Fans of the genre should not worry about the quality and quantity of releases.
Honorable Mention: Epoch - Sacrosanct (2017)

While not 100% Death Metal, this release had enough chops to make it to this list. Be prepared for 36 minutes of brutality. |

France shows that they can unleash a traditional Swedish Death Metal storm with this pummeling release. |

4. Sinister - Gods of the Abyss (2017)

Technically not a new release, this release showcases a transition time for Sinister while bringing back their old-old style. What more can a Death Metal fan ask. |

Historically inspired, superbly catchy and lush Symphonic Death Metal from members of Kataklysm almost topped our list this year. |

2. Origin – Unparalleled Universe (2017)

Technical and brutal are the specialties of Origin. With "Unparalleled Universe", the band continues to push the envelope. |

1. Suffocation - ... Of the Dark Light (2017)

Legendary Suffocation tops our list this year with a ferocious release that keeps them up-to-date while retaining their old-school charm. |
