Progressive/Technical Thrash

[Semi-pro]

Facts of life: all the Finnish bands that start with the letters "st" are all awesome tech-trash metal bands... NOT! But these guys make a good start:

Stone!!

[Scar Symmetry]

I actually liked the first one considerably better, though the new one has it's moments.

Same here.

Herrick also recommends the technical sexcellence of Coroner. Check out their first three albums. The other two albums are still very good but they changed their sound.

 

[MetalMike04]

Anatares Predetor
Ouroboros (ex-Dred)
old old Meshuggah was kinda thrashy

theres my 2 cents

 

[ATOMICxTomato]

What about Control Denied.

 

[Dwellingers]

not really techy, but i used to listen to them a bunch

Year - they are awesome - loads of energy

 

[DLG]

my Toxik - Think This backpatch approves of this thread

 

[Variant]

Anacrusis.

Edit: I see that they've already been mentioned. Can't hurt to mention them again.

 

[etiam]

Scarve?

^ Fire proven! Fire proveeee-eeeeenn! Maybe a bit too deathy for OP's needs but Irradiant is pretty dope and quite thrashy at times.

stone was FUCKING awesome

Be sure to check out the album "No Anaesthesia!". Had it been heard outside this funny little country when it came out, i guess it'd now be a metal classic. Also featuring a bunch awesome hooks that later some guy called Alexi ripped off for his band called Bodom something...


MetalMike04's right about the early Meshuggah. Contradictions Collapse is awesome stuff for the moments you feel like thrash with tons of instrumensturbation (lol!). Also the debut EP, that can be found on RareTrax compilation.

Mmmm... I guess Martyr is considered more tech death, but "Warp Zone" is an amazing album and definitely full of awesome riffage and tasty compositions.

I dunno what Martyr is, other than awesome. Control Denied definitely fits the description, though.

Disillusion's album "Back To Times Of Splendor" is for you.





Granted, it's my favorite album on the face of the earth, so I may be biased...

control denied, in my opinion, was so of Chuck's best work

thanks but too black metal oriented, and i can't get into the low toned monotone vocals

 

[SenorDingDong]

Scarve?

Martyr was awesome bro, i don't mind the death metal aspects as long as they're not the low grunting vocals
