Hello everyone, I was wondering if anyone could tell me what chords and scales he's using throughout this piece, I can't seem to figure it out. Also, does anyone know what tuning he's in? Even if the chords are just simple 5th and 7th chords or something, please try to be as specific as possible. Thanks!
 

Thanks everyone!

I think this slots in nicely too.

You'd probably like the Nocturnus albums "The Key" and "Thresholds". They're pretty progressive and technical, as well as some of the finest early Death Metal works. They remind me of Death a bit.
Also, you should try Edge of Sanity's "Crimson" album. It took me a while to appreciate it, but it's easily one of the best Progressive Death Metal albums ever. Also somewhat in this vein is Pestilence's "Testimony of the Ancients" album and Cynic's "Focus".
On the heavier side of things, you may like some of Master's early work, too.
I know these are all albums but I have a hard time breaking things down to songs. I usually just listen to full albums.

That riff that starts at 58 seconds is awesome.

First 40 seconds or so is just amazing. I have so many riffs which I love I can only name 1.

Hello, I'm looking for song suggestions based on my favorite songs of all time which I'm about to tell you: Spirit Crusher-Death, Moonlight Equilibrium-Black Dahlia, Flattening of Emotions-Death, Breaking the Broken-Control Denied, Charging the void/Recharging the void-Vektor, Bound by Desire-Revocation, Point of no return-Havok, DOA-Havok, Heartwork-Carcass, Pierced From Within-Suffocation, As grace Descends-Suffocation, Kaleb-Battlecross, Immortality made flesh-Exmortus, Triumph by Fire-Exmortus, Akroasis-Obscura. As you can see if you've heard these songs, I'm very into a melodic and progressive songs, I love songs with a very epic progression, songs with a climax, like near the end of bound by desire. I LOVE Chuck Schuldiner anything with Chuck in it I've heard, anything that's similar to Chuck Schuldiner's progressive-death style please tell me. I don'tt like power metal I like that cinematic theatric sound but I hate the clean vocals. Suggestions? Thanks!

Hello, what do you all think are the most beautiful and or emotional metal songs? I'm thinking along the lines of voice of the soul by death. Nothing by a band with veil in their name, (black veil brides, pierce the veil) no bands that give metal a bad rep like those two listed. Thanks!?

Totally

What are your thoughts on the new Kreator song? If you haven't heard it, I HIGHLY recommend it. After the very kreatorish melodic intro it goes into an insanely sick riff that reminds me of a cross between phantom antichrist and extreme aggression. I think this album along with their last 4 releases are (and in the new album's case will be) thrash classics of the 21st century.

Hello, the mourning palace by dimmu borgir along with gateways, and some immortal stuff like mighty ravendark has hooked me on black metal. I love the black metal tremolo picked riffs you here at the end of mourning palace and the riff right after they say "forever more" in gateways. I know these riffs are all over black metal but where can I find the best? Thanks! Also, being one of the more popular black metal bands is dimmu borgir hated on a lot by elitists?

Here:
At The Gates - Neverwhere
At The Gates - The Beautiful Wound
Dark Tranquillity - The Dividing Line
Dark Tranquillity - Zodijackyl Light
The Crown - Rebel Angel
A Canorous Quintet - Silence Of The World Beyond
Unanimated - Oceans Of Time
Ablaze My Sorrow - As I Face The Eternity
Eucharist - With The Sun
Dead Blue Sky - To Live In Dreams (this is from an American album released on a Belgian hardcore label, but hey...)
And not on the Gothenburg tip...
Edge Of Sanity - Crimson
Opeth - Black Rose Immortal (this one is looooong but totally worth the listen IMO)
 
Obsequiae - Suspended In The Brume Of Eos (not melodeath but you can hear the similarities)
Note - moved 03/17, sorry for any duplicate recommendations

Restless Oblivion by Anathema is up there.

Thank you also I don't know why I posted that twice up above 

You are welcome... perhaps you were feeling extra appreciative..:)

Thank you everyone I'll start listening.

Hello, I've been listening to death for a while now and I love them! All my favorite death songs have a certain type of riff in them, which I call "accelerating riffs." The ones I'm talkin about are the chorus riff in without judgement, the riff in spirit crusher where while he says "monster at heart!" and right before that, the riff in spirit crusher that lasts from 2:25ish to 2:55ish, and the riff from pull the plug that lasts from 0:25ish to 0:50ish. Is this constant in death metal? Is it in a different genre? Which genre uses it most? I haven't listened to much death metal other than a ton of deaths music. If anyone knows other songs with riffs like this please give me some suggestions. Please help! I need more!

I 1st started when I was 9 or 10, I think, or there about on Bass, Stanley Clark of all people. Don't even ask why lol. Then Pastorius! Wow! Then I moved on to Flea (who is exceptional). Then I moved on to Classical guitar, spent a lot of time practicing and having no life. Leave a week of practice out and your fingerings were off. Dedication and respect to those. Paco De Lucia inspired me, then I just stumbled across guitar. Played some piano in-between, was never really that good with piano, again one of those instruments you need to live and truly want to be great at playing.

I think the 1st instrument you learn ultimately dictates what way you write, maybe I could be wrong. A lot of people have said I play and write or jam very rhythmically, almost like a bassist! haha... 

Old habits die hard I suppose.   
For me now, I am mediocre at best. I just like to use instruments to make noise. Drums though I never could get the knack of.

I'm still good friends with most of the people I've played music with. If you've known each other that long, you have nothing to worry about, maybe you can jam on the side once you've gotten something more fulfilling started up. It's great to play with people who will push you out of your box, but it's counterproductive to try forming a thrash band with someone who doesn't share your tastes.

So he doesn't practice, doesn't have the right equipment, and doesn't like the music you want to play? You don't have a drummer, you just know a dude who can play drums. Don't waste time trying to make music with people that far removed from what you want to do.

I'm in kinda of a similar situation I have a drummer but he barely practices anymore because of baseball and he refuses to get a double bass because he doesent even like metal. He wants to have original songs but he doesent write anything. Soooo, I write everything and I only write to enjoy myself, consequently I only write metal. I've offered to go back to just sabbath and acdc covers but he says we need to experiment yet he's too stubborn to get a double bass. I don't know, I'm trying to subtlety ditch him, I really want a true dedicated thrash metal band.
 

Rad!

Thanks! The band didn't show at the venue so I never got to try out, which blows. But now I'm trying to form my own band called, (please no one steal this) apocalyptic clash.

Exactly!

Totally! Especially the riff in arbiters of the apocalypse right after he says, "open the gates of destruction!"
