Nobody has mentioned OBITUARY shame on you all! i'm not au fait with some of these bands , but I would never class OPETH as Death Metal, they flit from genre to genre. They are fookin awesome however.
Celtic Frost and Bathory are two early protagonists of Death Metal, although their music incorporated many genres of metal. The starting point is generally regarded as SCREAM BLOODY GORE by DEATH.
