- Heaviest Death Metal Song? It just might be Death's "Symbolic." Symbolic is off Death's 1995 record of the same name. According to front man Chuck Schuldiner, the song is about losing the innocence of youth....a HEAVY topic indeed. Is it really possible that Death is heavier than Cannibal Corpse, Meshuggah or Thrash giants like Megadeth and Metallica? In order to find out, we watch a live performance of Death's Symbolic recorded in Los Angeles in 1998. Decide for yourself and post your opinion in the comments below. Get on Chuck Schuldiner's level with my full music theory course below. It's the best way to reach level 666 fast muhahaha!

Death was an example of how deathmetal can be very individual and creative. No one sounded like them before, no one has since. It is what every band should aspire to.
decrepit birth - diminishing between words is the only album ive heard that sounds like death
@@hbc431 Chemical Breath - Fatal exposure. Sadly enough that band was grossly overlooked. i guess mainly because the second album values was a serious step backwards imho.
I feel like on Symbolic they had everything: emotional leads, heavy riffs, technical skills when they're needed and the most important for me: the melody. I would say it was prog death mixed with melodic death and I love it.
in my opinion, death's most heavy song is Flattening Of Emotions no doubt, the amount of riffs and badass vocals make this song perfect. You should review this song too!
This song live hits on a totally different level. It gave me chills
to me their heaviest song is Born Dead, the riffs...
Suicide machine, see through dreams, and leprosy are also quite heavy
Altering the Future , my guy
I agree, Flattening of Emotions set a level of heaviness that I for a long time thought nobody could overcome. But Human in general is crushing and amazing.
NEVER a day passes that I dont listen to death and or play Chuck's riffs.
Death’s music always calms me down.Death’s music sounds to me like the ocean, mysterious,vast,deadly, dangerous and peaceful at the same time. 🧘♂️🤘🎸🌊☮️🕊✌️
Ooooh I like thaf
Symbolic just blew my mind the first time I heard it. There isn't a song on that whole album that is even remotely uninteresting or boring, due in large part to the fact that that album was the one they spent the most time writing. That and TSoP were Death's peak, and then there's The Fragile Art of Existence...
Just started listening to this album after finding out chuck worked on that piece /band ( as guitar ofc & some songwriting ) with Tim Aymar ( the vocals in Control Denied ) which also lead to me t discover Tim Aymars other band Called Psycho scream, no sign of life is one of their first songs ive heard.
@@riffreaper Just checked out No Sign of Life, and I'm very impressed! PS seems very underrated.
I love Death so much. Such a unique band
My death tattoo tingles every time you mention chuck...no homo...
Flesh and the power it holds, and Scavenger of human sorrow opened up new worlds for me when I first heard TSOP. The drums are so jazzy, the bass is so groovy, and the guitars and vocals are so piercing, it just sounds demonic and so very metal! cheers brother! Thanks for the great music theory lessons!
🤘
Support metal, not rumors!!
Right on brother !
Just got into Death, and definitely one of my favorites is Spirit Crusher. It primes you with the opening riff, then just sweeps you along with its heavy metal caravan.
In the '90s, big bands like Megadeth and Metallica reduced the hardness and complexity of their music and released more radio-friendly albums, while bands like Pantera, Slayer, and Death did the opposite.
Especially Death deserves to be in a very interesting position. Human and every album after it has intensified depth in the lyrics, searched for the different, produced works that are layered and not easy to digest.
It's really respectable. Chuck is truly a genius. There are orchestral versions of some Death songs on UA-cam. I recommend everyone to listen.
Unbelievably iconic band for the metal world chuck was legit a genius
Morbid Angel’s Summoning Redemption crushes.
Chuck will always be my fav guitarist
Chuck Is one of the greatest musician ever lived
Chuck was a genius. The guitar, the vocals, everything’s amazing. Death is a legendary band…
Thanks for the chuck content shred I appreciate it. I think Human is his heaviest album because the production value was much higher than spiritual healing but he was still using marshall jcm back then. He switched to the valvestate before symbolic and got that classic midrangy tone, shredding soaring melodies, but the tone on human is very dark, bassy and cavernous, exploring the underworld. I think vacant planets or together as one are my favorites off that album
I love Symbolic! imo their best album. Without Judgement is my favorite Death song and Crystal Mountain and Misanthrope are just great. Also has good production, which compaired to their old stuff makes it way more fun to listen to.
Scream bloody gore was also a banger
Seeing Richard kill those drums, it's so strange hearing him do Ethel and Rusty on HS. Like how can that be the same person?
I love hearing about death and Chuck as they are very inspiring to me as a musician
My favourite band ever! Chuck was a genious!!!
Should I sell my soul? Or just drink some wap juice? (Whoops, no wap juice today, not enough power then)
The lyrics to this track and rhythmic changes make this such a powerful song. Unbelievable
“Shred, you pick that twang-box farley tolerable!”
Definitely any song off of HUMAN is the heaviest material they made.... Granted it might not have as many tempo changes or dimensions as Symbolic 🤔 However 🤷🏻♂️Hard to top Flattening of Emotions 👌
You're a trip man. I like you lol. Good reactions with awkwardly cool personality.
Finally somone who recognizes the ultimate greatness of Symbolic! Wha hahaha..whenever I bring up the top ten metal album of all time Symbolic, dudes are always bringing up the earlier album thats good...but doesnt touch the perfection that is Symbolic. Bwah hahahah
I love so much that is palpable that you’re a huge death fan as I am long life Chuck
I would've picked 'Misanthrope'. That chorus riff is filthy! 🤘
Kickass song, that starting riff is very catchy.
This was my very first extreme metal show i went to i was about 15 years old seeing death for the first and last time r.i.p. chuck
Didn't realize before. But that other guitarist really flubbed up that second part of the solo. lol
heavy, riffs , melody .. best band of death metal
I gotta say Open casket imo... Good video Thumbs up!
It's awesome to see people read and watch music like this
I like how there is Chuck... and then there is the other guy... lol.
You can't kill metal but you can force it off stage at 10pm due to local noise control legislation
Good morning my Friend!
I bought this cd back when it came out. I literally sh1t myself. A legendary classic. Studied by many wanna-be musicians.
the philosopher, see through dreams, Lack of comprehension
Listen Death is my favorite death metal band of all time but i think Lashed to the Slave Stick by Nile is the heaviest death metal song ever written
It is heavy and touching AF , but it is something far beyond death metal. Chuck in his whole life wanted to expand new musical teritories and his last albums with Death and Control Denied prove it.
definitely. his lyrics are not death metal at all.
Ad a Dglgmut, Arsonist, Disease Injury Madness, by Between the Buried and Me. Those have some heavy dirtyness.
I’d say misanthrope off of symbolic is the heaviest but the song symbolic is right there with it in my opinion
This is nothing compare to summoning redemption
Agreed
The sound of perseverance is my favorite album Richards drumming is next level on that one
Laughs in Necrophagia
So as we looking for heaviest death metal song maybe some Cannibal Corpse or Nile next time?
You should react to dissection
I've read a long time a go, Richard got a terribly flu...so everything they played that day was a bit aceleRAAATED.
Bobby koeble originally created second solo and Shannon murdered it.
Obituary
Death is a great band but i could think of 15 heavier bands probably. Cannibal Corpse, Dying Fetus, Decrepit Birth, Mephistophelian, Abramelin, Fleshrot, Putridity, etc. They just don't have the riff skills as Death.
What about Spirit Crusher
Fast, intense, brutal metal 🤘the way metal should be 🤘I grew up listening to death, and my music is heavily influenced by them and slayer, 🤘
Death was amazing , Chuck was the man. Morbid Angel had some great stuff too.
Shred, if you do another video with Death, you should use a clip with Gene Hoglin on drums. All hail the human metronome!
HOGLAN.
Yes!!!
DEATH 4 LIFE!!! 🖤🔥🤘💀🤘🔥🖤
Love death a lot but I would put any of their songs near the heaviest death metal song
No bad album 🤘🤘
i love death bro
can we get more death metal?
How bout Deaths ,"Leprosy" album....1st I heard of Death
Have you ever listened to Cannibal Corpse? Lol
I love Death, it is nowhere closest to the heaviest Death Metal.
Loving that big white nostril you're rocking this vid. A few nose beers before recording a video is never a bad thing!
Death metal has progressed into a far more intense form. Listen to Nile...
I would say the album itself is their heaviest. But Perennial Quest may be Chuck's heaviest song of all time, imo.
Please react to studio versions
It's more enjoyable for you and us
Live versions are less likely to get content ID'd. The words "fair use" don't mean much on this here platform.
besides spirit crusher this is my other favorite death song.
🙏🤘🤘🙏
🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿
If Music Is Win and FitMC had a kid, and their child lost the genetic lottery, this is what would come of it. Literally the cringiest qualities of both of them
I appreciate Chuck's talent, but Death Metal has been the bridge I am unable to cross. In my heart American Thrash will always be the pinnacle of Metal.
I used to feel the same way. Then, after listening to thrash pretty steadily for, like, 15 years, I got kinda bored with it. When I was still in my thrash phase, people used to tell me that and I thought they were crazy. Here I am 20 years later saying the same thing. Oh well, whatever blows yer skirt up, I guess.
Heaviest song ever is domination by pantera
Death made the heaviest death metal songs? Honestly, i dunno. Death made the BEST death metal songs? Hell yeah, you can bet your ass they did.
I mean great song, but the heaviest? Not so sure
Na it’s great but not the heaviest. Gotta be something off Leprosy
It’s not.
One of my top 5 bands of all time
Etombed my fav death metal band ,i dont like death that much its to much melodic
Altering the Future is one that comes to mind.
Without Grief - Ungodly
Check it out
I wish I can play like that while singing. Crystal Mountain is next shred.
Nah. Do Flesh and the Power It Holds. That solo is insane.
@@Brandon-dy8us true
Oh yeah, the Sound of Perseverance album. I also like the Bite the Pain.
After practice I’ve reached the ability to play all of death, it’s just dedication you can do it too!
Crystal Mountain is the only Death Metal song I like. Therefore Death is my favorite Death Metal band, but I hate Death Metal. So, yeah.
I have a friend who is a Chuck doppelganger. He plays guitar but doesn't listen to Death and it makes me sad.
Death, the reason I picked up a guitar. Chuck was a revolutionary
Hail Schuldiner! One of the biggest losses in the metal scene ever. What a legend 😢
A personal favourite of mine is the song “Spiritual Healing”
Spiritual healing is the best death song but worst death album
NO ONE tops the Almighty DEATH ... But MESHUGGAH is a close second I.M.O.. (DESTROY ERASE IMPROVE ERA) I was lucky enough to see them MANY TIMES and talk with Chuck Before He passed ..He was just SOOOO down to earth and an AWESOME guy ...As well as an INCREDIBLE Talent... R.I.P.
My favorite BC Rich Stealth fact: the two most prominent users of the BC Rich Stealth are Chuck Schuldiner of Death and Jim West from "Weird Al" Yankovic's band (he used a Stealth in the early and mid 80s, including an appearance on the Merv Griffin Show where they played I Lost On Jeopardy! and where Merv announced that Jeopardy! would be returning to television).
And Derringer?
The Cars Elliot Easton had a bich also a fun bich fact
Didn't Jeff From Slayer play one too for a little while.
Amazing song. Symbolic, Pull the plug, Flesh and the power it holds are amazing as are many many many Death songs. Live in Eindhoven 1998 is the best. That show’s audio is clear. Everyone is at their maximum. Chuck is a power house through the whole show.
I'd love to keep seeing these Death reaction/analyses! Love Chuck's music and lyrics just as much!
If you have Symbolic as th3 heaviest death metal song I'm thinking you haven't listened to nearly enough death metal
What tracks/albums do you have in mind? Just curious
For real, heaviest song in Death would be leprosy in my opinion. In all of death metal, I can't really say.
@@jehanzebshahzad6579None So Vile and Pierced From Within - probably the two heaviest albums ever recorded
gay ahh albums
Shred- you have helped me re discover Death. Thanks! Forgot how good they were.
Any chance of Prong or Fugazi on the channel?
His guitar playing is incredible! His guitar is also very different. No front pickup, no selection switch, no whammy bar. He'll just bend a note two steps.
Shred, you should do empty words sometime. That has a haunting intro, and killer body!
he could stop belching too
And also a very short scale, too! Shorter, than Gibsons, if I get it right. Brain May also has a very different signature guitar with a short scale.
@@EM-zj1xm Brian Mays guitar is very unique, nothing like a serial produced guitar. He built it together with his father from different things that was avialible like wood from an old fireplace for example.
I love playing Symbolic on the guitar. The whole album is alot of fun, and great for getting out some aggression
you should check "flesh and the power it holds",interesting song
Symbolic, as good as it is, isn't even the heaviest Death song, let alone the heaviest death metal song.
And it's not death metal. As a matter of fact, Chuck hated the term.
Maybe not heaviest, but definitely up there. Personally I’m in on The album “Scream bloody gore”, I think that album has some contenders. Also, Immolations “Legacy of decay” has got some awesome heavy tracks too with a lot of variety.
HATEWORK by Morbid Angel.
"Do you remember when?
Hero's were so real
Their magic frozen in TIme"! RIP Chuck. Your legacy will live on forever. Frozen in Time.
