Another Technical Death Metal Thread - Recommendations?

[Vyn]

I've been using the search function to have a look to see if I could find some new stuff to listen to. Few of the threads were quite old and had the usual offenders in them, the history thread was interesting but there wasn't anything really 'new' in it.

To give you an idea, I've had Rivers of Nihil "Where Owls Know My Name" and Archspire "Relentless Mutation" spinning lately as well as Psycroptic, Nile, Beyond Creation (it's just been one massive tech death boner lately). Any cool/new/weird recommendations guys?

Decrepit birth
Slugdge

I've been having fun going back instead of looking for new actually. If you haven't already give stuff like Monstrosity a listen -

Weird and Cool:
Augury - The Illusive Golden Age
Sarpanitum - Blessed Be My Brothers
Sutrah - Dunes
Artificial Brain - Infrared Horizon
Inferi - Revenant
Ulcerate - Shrines of Paralysis
Abhorrent - Intransigence

Early 90's Throwback:
Skeletal Remains - Devouring Mortality
Defeated Sanity - Dharmata

Brutal:
Defeated Sanity - Disposal of the Dead
Putridity - Ignominious Atonement
Wormed - Krigshu

Alkaloid have insane new material about to come out. 3 songs were released and they are unbelievable. Fallujah is also great. Black Crown Initiate have some quite technical songs among more atmospheric stuff.

+1 on Decrepit Birth and Wormed. Been rocking Krigshu and Exodromos a lot lately.

I'm obsessed with Artificial Brain.

For tech death weirdness check out Gigan. Best song titles ever...

Cytotoxin really impressed me a while back.

For me, recently, I'm all about Slugdge and Defeated Sanity

Also if you like Nile I'd say you should definitely check out Sutrah. It's actually not really so much like Nile, but it has the sort of ... non-western folk music motif?


I fucking do not understand why people (or is it only just you, silver? and you've written it somewhere else also?) keep saying that Defeated Sanity sounds like old school death metal. It maybe, maybe almost sounds like older Cryptopsy. But I feel like at that time in the 90s Cryptopsy was inventing the future of death metal, way ahead of their time. The other day when someone said Dharmata sounded like Death (I think it was still silverabyss lol) I did the full on Jackie Chan meme face.

Inferi- revenant
augury- illusive golden age

Alterbeast is pretty sick.....



Afterbirth



Xenosis



and If you can get past the using 'ov' in literally every song title...

Iirc Kevin Heiderich said Lille was going for the Cynic 91 demo as a reference point

I don’t understand how you could listen to Dharmata and not immediately get the old Athiest/Cynic/Human vibe

 

[gunshow86de]

you should definitely check out Sutrah.

I'll cosign on this. Dunes is a great album.

I just figured out where we're having our disconnect I mistakenly thought that Dharmata was the subtitle of the album Disposal of the Dead, I hadnt realized that you were only talking about the "second half", which as I now realize is just a separate EP but released together with the other one. You're totally right, it's quite obviously incorporating that old school sound.

It’s all good dude

Not really my kind of jams but I guess I have not delved deep enough because there are some really interesting suggestions. The only track that comes to mind that isn't from the usual suspects:

 

[Floppystrings]

I was not expecting a sick groove after that piddly-widdly intro with Afterbeast, that was fucking sick!

I'll cosign on this. Dunes is a great album.

Definitely checking these guys out.

Old but good. Love some Hannes!
