but then so why haven't i been able to get Rumpelstiltskin Grinder's Buried In the Frontyard out of my cd player? There's no good explanation.

grind > thrash, that's why. check out Pig Destroyer's Prowler In The Yard.
also, ahahahah @ pwning people with metal riffs.

Bands in the vein of Morbid Angel, Carcass, Edge of Sanity, Anata, Dark Tranquillity, Cryptopsy and Meshuggah.

That's quite a diverse range of sound, but I'd recommend:
Amon Amarth - Versus the World
At The Gates - The Red in the Sky is Ours
Arch Enemy - Burning Bridges
Arsis - A Celebration of Guilt
Bloodbath - Nightmares Made Flesh
Darkane - Rusted Angel
Entombed - Left Hand Path
Grave - Into the Grave
Insomnium - Since The Day It All Came Down
Therion - Beyond Sanctorum
Tiamat - Sumerian Cry
Unleashed - Where No Life Dwells
With the three bolded particularly recommended. (I take it, next to those, you mean 'Unorthodox' Era EOS.) Try and go for the albums I've suggested, as some of those bands (Mainly Tiamat and Therion) have evolved into stuff completely different. Everyone with a metal bone in their body should get their hands on that Amon Amarth album though, even if only because it has one of those rare fucking PERFECT metal tracks 'Death in Fire'.
I need more Pig Destroyer. Would you recommend Prowler in the Yard or Terrifier? I only have 38 Counts of Battery.
The thing about Thrash is getting the right thrash. Thrash sounds awful when it's done badly, especially as most of the best stuff's from the eighties and the production is naturally weaker. Apart from the standard list of thrash bands that normally gets rolled out, I'd particularly recommend Tankard, Sabbat and Hobb's Angel of Death.
beat mouse:
well, ultimately i'd recommend both, Terrifier is an awesome album, and has a very violent air to it (even for pig destroyer!) where as Prowler In The Yard is kind of the definitive Pig Destroyer album, that most fans say is their prime. Terrifier is great, Prowler is great. Start with prowler, then terrifier, if you only want one though.
Also, agreed 115% on Death In Fire being the perfect track.
KharBevNor:
I'm on a quest to track down the perfect metal tracks, in order to make the most metal mix CD in the Universe, and thus herald Ragnarok. Problem is it's all so bloody subjective. I'm pretty sure 'Death in Fire' is on there though, along with 'For Those Who Died' by Sabbat, 'All Guns Blazing' by Judas Priest and 'Damned in Black' by Immortal should have definite places on there.
Outshined:
Let me know when you finish that list, I'm interested in hearing it. I could stand to get a few more decent metal bands in my sphere of interest =P.
