Demontuary are an American death metal band with some black metal tinges. They originally formed in 1997, under "Of the Fallen" , and had an almost pure symphonic black metal sound. In 2002, the release year of this demo, they changed their name and have been active as Demontuary ever since.
I'm generally not into metal from the 2000's, it's a decade that didn't really create a lot of good music for my tastes - but that doesn't mean there aren't any exceptions. Demontuary's self-titled demo is a great example of how you should mix straight up death metal with symphonic black roots (and even some clean singing!). They introduce a lot of orchestral and heavily melodic moments without losing any of the death metal essence.
Tracklist:
00:00 - Unleash Damnation
04:10 - Demonic Spectres of War
09:20 - Ride upon the Wings of Vengeance
12:23 - Tides of Battle
13:24 - Oceans of Blood
18:00 - Outro

Strangulation were a death metal band from Brazil. They formed in 1991 and released 2 demos and an album.
Hubris was this bands second release and its nothing more than a really cool and compact death metal demo. Feels like a midpoint between that Death/Possessed style of death metal, very thrashy, and the heavier, thicker sound you can associate with projects that started appearing in the early 90s.

Abscesy were a Czech deathgrind band. Formed in 1994, only released 2 demos, Fucked and Drawing being their first one.
As you can see by the track lengths, Abscesy keeps it mostly straight to the point, not much bullshit is thrown around, just riff after riff with a little of indistinguishable chaotic riffs with noisy blast beats. There is also a noticeable brutal death influence on their sound.
Abscesy are gross.
Tracklist:
00:00 - Clinical Death

BraneStem were a short-lived American death metal band, active only from 1992 to 1993. In that meantime, they released 2 demos (but recorded 3 apparently!) and this piece of history youre listening to is their 2nd one.
Good old classic death metal, Tampa style. Just music about killing, satan, gore and violence. What else can I ask for? Also, did you look at that artwork? Doesnt that tell you ALL you need to know about this demo? Just press play, trust me... What a bangin demo!

Unsouled were a Canadian death metal band. Formed in 1992, the band only released this demo in the same year, disbanding in 1993 after their drummer had a snowmobile accident.
These Québécois dropped a super murky and dirty demo, with hints of Morbid Angel, Deicide and Immolation. If it wasnt for the skippable intro and outro, this demo should be more well known.

Infanticide were a Californian brutal death metal band, active from 1993 to 1997. During that time, this band with a very unique and not overused name, only had this demo to show off as an official release.
If youre into early 90s brutal death that leans a bit more to the death than to the brutal, you know what this demo has in store for you. Akin to bands such as Sepsism, Excoriate - Dead Molestation, Embalmed or even Gorelust. I just wish I could see the original cover art for this, or even just the band logo!

![Seventh Gate - Execution [Full Demo - 1989]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/gVQfVBoww6w/mqdefault.jpg "Seventh Gate - Execution [Full Demo - 1989]
Seventh Gate were an Americand death/thrash metal band. They released 2 tapes, this one in 89 and a second one in 90.
Their sound is still heavily rooted in thrash metal (as to be expected from something from the 80s) and they still employ some vocal techniques used more commonly in that genre - to a gret effect if I may add), but since the vocals do get raspy and the songs are more mid-tempo than anything else it already sounds like death metal.
If nothing else, its an interesting to how the genres were evolving in the late 80s.
Tracklist:
00:00 - Day of Doom
03:14 - Cry for Pain
08:09 - Into the Abyss
10:17 - The Execution

Streetcleaner were a hardcore band from Illinois, USA. I have no idea when they formed, disbanded or if they released more material (I sure wish they did) since little to no information about this band is available online.
This upload sticks out like a sore thumb since its possibly the first upload on the channel thats not primarily metal - however, if youre into the more chaotic side of sludge metal or hardcore punk, this demo is the right thing for you. Super drudgy guitars, sore throat screams (often processed through guitar amps) and a huge fuck you attitude.
Man, I love punk so much...

Necrologi were a 5 piece death/thrash metal band from Catalonia, Spain. This self titled demo with a baller skeleton is the only thing they ever put out there.
This is a very amateurish demo, no one is really super proficient with their instruments and that adds up to a very natural feeling demo for those with a knack for that DIY feel. They never really have fast tempos, which is another DIY stamp from those smaller bands with members that never really played music other for the love of it.

Windbreed were an American death metal band and were active from 1992 to 1996. During their runtime, the band released this demo, a live album and 2 EPs.
Into the Breed opens up with a track thats more doom/death with some uh... shall we call it interesting creative choices. Anyway, as soon as that track is over (dont get me wrong, it is a cool track), Windbreed release the hounds and ferocity reigns. From Dying in the Mourning Sun to Into the Breed (damn these do sound like death/doom track names) its no frills death metal. The vocals are specially interesting because of the effects they overlaid on them, super neat stuff.

Hormigon were a short lived Spanish death metal band who formed in 1992 and disbanded in 1995 after releasing 2 demos... They have, however, hopped in the very modern trend that is reactivating your old band after like 3 decades and released 2 LPs since 2019, one in 2020 and another in 2022.
They play some beefy death metal, very 90s style, akin to maybe Sinister, Acrostichon or maybe a bit of Krabathor?... maybe....
Actually, these guys are perfectly in that 90s middle ground death metal that doesnt sound exactly like any major, genre-defining band but also sound undeniably 90s and I just cant wrap my head around it. This happened many times to me before while figuring out what to write in my little comments about the demos. I need a good benchmark band for this kind of style and I just dont know what to compare this style with!!

Lacerate come from Thailand and this brutal death metal demo is their second output after forming in 98. Since that date, they have released 2 demos, 3 splits and 1 EP. Their last release was in 2004 and, surprisingly, apparently, theyre still active today. This specific version Ive uploaded here is a re-release by Terror From Hell Records that includes an extra 5th track.
In these 20min, expect late 90s brutal death metal to the core. Raw and unfiltered riffs, unintelligible growls and non-stop aggression. Catches the spirit of bands such as Vomit Remnants, Regurgitation or Vile
