Irreverent name for a distinctive style of blackened death metal characterised by raw production, muddy distortion, and a palpably "cavernous" feel accentuated with reverb and feedback. A popular style among lovers of old-school death metal, two thirds of whom are guaranteed to be pissed off by the term's usage in an earnest context. Notable bands of this style are Antediluvian, Mitochondrion, Cruciamentum, and Portal.
Other nicknames for this style include "wind-tunnel death metal", "murkcore".
