I don't know if anyone is a big vorkreist fan, but listen their new "Sublimation XXIXA" album. There's a few catchy riffs that stick in your head forever.

Obviously, I have to mention Bloobath's "Eaten". The pace of it is the magic behind it being so catchy.

Um, Deicide's Holy Deception. How did we miss this?

Unless it was previously mentioned and I forgot, in which case... whatever.

Satan Spawn, the Caco-Daemon

A couple I think of when reading the topic:

Vader - What Color Is Your Blood
Vomitory - Terrorize Brutalize Sodomize
Torture Division - The Purifier
Devourment - Fed To The Pigs
Hypocrisy - Warpath
Misery Index - Unmarked Graves
Cannibal Corpse - Tomb Of The Mutilated

Vader's "Wings" of course.

take this life by inflames

i think you misread the title

1: Napalm Death - Suffer The Children
2: Deicide - Kill the Christian
3: Obituary - Chopped In Half
4: Cannibal Corpse - Skull Full Of Maggots
5: Monstrosity - Eye Of Judgement
6: Sepultura - Morbid Visions
7: Cannibal Corpse - Zero The Hero
8: Suffocation - Pierced From Within
9: Pavor - Inflictor Of Grimness
10: Broken Hope - Gore Hog
11: Mortician - Skin Peeler

i think ive gone a bit off topic now

Catchiest death metal song I've ever heard is probably Malodorous Rancidity by Pyaemia. The chorus makes me feel like driving off a cliff on fire while sawing off my head with a chainsaw. Good times.

For Us or Against Us by Dying Fetus is good too.

Fuck off I forgot Grotesque Impalement by Dying Fetus!

At The Gates - Blinded By Fear

Pretty much anything of Slaughter Of The Soul could take the title, for me.

interesting... Pavor is totally NOT catchy, the Zero the Hero song is a Black Sabbath cover
and its a terrible cover at that...

Gore Hog? really?... and Eye of Judgment. i find these interesting because they aren't exactly the most catchiest hook driven songs from either band
not flamin'ya just stating such.
good call on Suffer the Children!

CC - Devoured by Vermin
Bloodbath - Brave New Hell
Carcass - Ruptured in Purulence
Death - Pull the Plug
Vader - What Colour is Your Blood?
and ofcourse Cancer - C.F.C.

Bolt Thrower - The Killchain !

Death - Left to Die

Make them suffer by Cannibal Corpse. XD
I can't help but to say "MAKE! THEM! SUFFER!" along XD

The opening riff of Enter the Depths of Eternal Darkness by Therion WILL make you head bang and WILL make you hit your head against the table in such a bloody fury that you WILL get brain damage.

But that's a good thing!



Anything that starts off with a BANG... a HEAD BANG... such as When The Dead Walk the Earth by Gorefest, Chaos vs. Order by Darkane, Eaten by Bloodbath, yadda yadda yadda...

I consider that to be catchy.

However, songs that don't start with a bang, but have a part where you can stand up, throw your neck back, and then hurl your entire body forward in one massive head bang (rinse...and repeat) because there is a build-up of tension and then a release in one massive jizz explosion... those are catchy.

And actually, the first song that comes to mind isn't really death metal, it's Crossover Thrash, and it is Beware the Thrash Brigade by Rumpelstiltskin Grinder (It illustrates my point though)

Lastly, there are the songs that are awesome throughout, have a catchy set of riffs, and prove that you don't need to have something that breaks your neck to be catchy. Incantation does this a lot (Ibex Moon!!!!). If there is a consistent atmosphere, awesome riffs and memorable moments, there ya go!

But still, when there is that song that has the part where it's just BANG YOUR FISTS IN TO THE FACE OF YOUR FUCKING MOTHER TO THE BEAT OF THE SONG heavy.... those songs are good too.



PS: I love my mommy.

haha!! Sigged

These ones are my favourites, and let's see what do I think once I listen to the ones you've mentioned here.

Deicide - Worst Enemy
Death - 1000 Eyes
Vader - Sothis
Morbid Angel - Lord of All Fevers and Plagues
Therion - Enter the Depths of Eternal Darkness
At The Gates - Captor of Sin (Slayer cover)
Ebony Tears - Handful of Nothing
Amon Amarth - Bleed for Ancient Gods
Arch Enemy - Rise of the Tyrant

fuck yeah.

also: Evil Dead. EVIILLLLLLLLLLLLLL! DEAD.

Mine has got to be brave new hell by bloodbath

Good one dude! that's something i can't get enough of either.

Amon Amarth - Metalwrath
Bloodbath - Brave New Hell
Cannibal Corpse - Hammer Smashed Face
Deicide - Scars of the Crucifix
Dethklok - Bloodrocuted

Absolutely no question in the world, Eroticide's American Pervert, and Theriomorphic's Bloodied Hope!

Death - Sacred Serenity. That chorus riff is AMAZING (tho' not really death metal)
Some Unleashed is pretty catchy.
Carcass - Embodiment
Cryptopsy - Cold Blood, Warm Hate

Cold Hate, Warm Blood.

When I'm in an "excitable" mood, I find most well produced, or even just loud and noisy, death metal to be catchy. But when I'm not predisposed to it:

Entombed: Seeing Red, Won't Back Down, Come Clean, In the Flesh
Vader: Angel of Death, This is the War (namely the beginning, so chuggalicious)

Aaaaaand, for shits:
Origin: Portal

That may seem crazy to people but it very much has a catchy motion on top of everything. At first it's a back and forth between the vocals and the guitar, and at the chorus the guitar line takes it. Course the song still spirals into utterly psychotic noise at some points, but hey, it wouldn't be Origin if it didn't.

Gorefest-Dehumanization

Wow. It's hard for me not to have this song stuck in my head for at least the remainder of the day, if not longer. The guitar riffs are so simple, and everything just flows and moves along at the perfect plodding pace. The intro starts up nice and then THAT riff. The main riff complements the vocals perfectly, and everything just works for the song as whole. The solo is fitting and just goes with the general plodding pace of the song. It's just a perfect example of how simplicity is can absolutely work wonders in music.

Hypocrisy-Compulsive Psychosis

Similar to the above. The guitars work and fit with a great vocal performance. The breaks into double kicks are amazing, the chorus is absolutely astonishing. Then you just break into it all again, with that sinister growl. The nice single string riff into the solo's is unbelievable, and once again, the solo's aren't wank fest or speed demon work but pure genius in context of the song.

If I haven't already mentioned 'So You Die' by Bloodbath, I have to now. That song is the definition of catchy.

incubus - massacre of the unborn

Worry in the House of Thievies by Deicide, off of ITIH, is actually pretty catchy. The way the riff is "passed" between the guitars in the verse (I think it's the verse; I haven't checked the lyrics, nor do I really care to) stuck out to me.

Suffocation - Catatonia

groovleeashed

Wow I didn't know Eroticide great band!

i guess most of death metal songs are catchy and if im honest all the old school songs are catchy starting by possessed(usa) and ending by Martire(australia)

Just listened to Destroyer 666 last night in bed. Phoenix Rising's "I Am The Wargod" had the catchiest riff I've heard this past week. The charging passion and energy was uncanny.

Entombed rules!!!

Make them Suffer - Cannibal Corpse

For me "suicide nation" by at the gates.
