For the most part, as far as the genre of death metal goes, there is Cannibal Corpse, and there is a bunch of copycats.

Supposedly there's a plot in the video for "Evisceration Plague," the title song from CANNIBAL CORPSE's new album, but it's hard to watch without banging your head up and down to the main riff. So what you get is a barnyard setting, a flannel-clad syringe user, vomited guts, the undead and Cannibal Corpse, all soundtracked [...]
