I sometimes like to listen to death metal, when I want to hear stuff that's really fast : here are a few albums that I really like :

Obituary - "Cause of Death" (probably my all-time favorite DM album with that great cover of Celtic Frost's "Circle of the Tyrants")
Cannibal Corpse - "Kill"
Death - "Spiritual Healing"
Morbid Angel - "Blessed are the sick"
Deicide - first album

Death Metal is the most favorite genre with me.

i used to purchase any Death Metal albums as like followings :

1. the release year is 80's or early 90's

2. artwork is good as like 1st Monstrosity and 1st Hypocrisy

Death, Pestilence, Moritification, Ethereal Scourge, Carcass, Soul Embraced, mid-Living Sacrifice, Amorphis, early Sentenced, Arch Enemy, Children Of Bodom, Becoming The Archetype, Paramacium, Metonia, Bolt Thrower, old Soilwork, Daath (a new band), Opeth (althoug a death/progressive hybrid), doom/death (i.e. old Paradise Lost, Anathema, early goth metal bands), and Obituary. Back in the day I used to listen to just about any death band (Cannibal Corpse, Napalm Death, Morbid Angel, Opressor, Suffocation, etc.) but I soon grew tired of the blood, gore, and satanic aspects even before I became a Christian. So these days I listen to death bands with either Christian or neutral lyrics. Oh, even though I don't like the plethora of cussing I do like me some Strapping Young Lad. :metal:
