Sometimes digging in sideways and really plucking the string sounds cool and has its place too. Like for emphasis on certain notes, do the percussive thing most of the time and mix in the plucks. Sounds like "Tikita-tikita-tikita TWANG."

Damn, these guys are fucking awesome! Cannibal Corpse is still my favorite band. I started listening to them when I was 12 years old in 1994. It’s cool to see how locked in they were at such a young age. While I love all of their more recent releases; their first 4 albums will always be my favorites. Doesn’t get any better than that .

@William Edward's The reason that it used to sound that way is because people didn't really know how to record, mix, and master death metal yet because it was so new. So you had producers experimenting, trying out random shit to see if it would work. Nowadays, everybody just runs their guitars through a Peavey 5150, a cabinet with Celestion Vintage 30 speakers, and they clap an SM57 or two on the cabinet. Yeah, you get a good tone every time, but it's the same tone. Or even worse, they use an AxeFX. It's not so much that people are obsessed with mids, it's that they're afraid to experiment and change their process, instead of just going with what they know works. There was a time when death metal records would often be defined and remembered for their production. That time is over.
