I like Cannibal Corpse. But they still do not rank amongst my favorites by any means (though my last.fm probably says differently, as they are my most played DM band.. but that is just cause I have been listening to them to catch up). They have some great moments, but they are not the only DM band in the world like some seem to like to think.

Can't deny their influence, but once you dive deeper into the style you realise what they influenced has been done better over the years.

But when it comes to a lot of Death Metal, especially the Brutal Death Metal scene that they helped shape.. you will notice that there are many bands who still just rip them off. Seems like the majority of BRutal DM bands now are either trying to be Cannibal Corpse or Suffocation.
