Death metal, a musical genre that emerged in the nineties, with its unique sensoriality opens up the discussion regarding the boundaries and continuities between sound and noise. The noise dominated sensoriality of death metal resembles the sounds of disruption in an unorganized body. This sensoriality can be discussed in terms of concepts such as identification, separation and autistic-obsessive defenses. In addition, the visuals of aggressive imagery are important elements of the sensory universe of death metal. This imagery points to various elements in terms of archaic and primary object relations. It also provides important data regarding the relationship between aggression and the intergenerational dynamics. The study of death metal as a musical phenomenon between noise and sound has the potential to contribute to the understanding of the multidimensional dynamics in the relationship between sensoriality and unconscious.
