Best/Your favorite technical death metal album

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Meh, I have a lot of problems with it. For instance, every song except perhaps Bite the Pain, Spirit Crusher and Voice of the Soul is basically worthless crap imo. And Chuck should have never ruined the sanctity of Painkiller with that voice.

 

[The Ozzman]

That version of Painkiller is better

I like their version of Painkiller, but it's not as good as the original, true....

Flesh And The Power It Holds, Story To Tell, Moment Of Clarity...ring a bell?

 

[The Ozzman]

Every song on that album kicks massive amounts of ass. Definitely my second favorite next to Symbolic

 

[LivingCadaver]

my favorite tech death albums:

Augury - Concealed
Pitbulls in the nursery - Lunatic

honorable mentions:
Cenotaph - Riding our black oceans
Pestilence - Testemony of the ancients
Quo Vadis - Defiant Imagination
Fuck the Facts - Stigmata High-Five
Martyr - Warp Zone
Cryptopsy - None so vile/whisper supremacy/and then youll beg
Neuraxis - a passage into forlorn/truth beyond
Psycroptic - the scepter of the ancients

and all the other one already mentionned..

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

I consider Augury to be progressive death, but they do kind of blur the line.

Pitbulls In The Nursery is cool though.

 

[The Black Prince]

 

[Zephyrus]

At the Gates is not tech death.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

They used to be.

 

[The Black Prince]

At the Gates is not tech death.

That album is.

 

[waif]

No it isn't.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Yes, it definitely is.

Fun fact: so is Darkthrone - Soulside Journey, Demilich - Nespithe and Suffocation - Effigy of the Forgotten.

 

[The Ozzman]

Effigy is tech death?

 

[General Zaroff]

Yes, it definitely is.

Fun fact: so is Darkthrone - Soulside Journey, Demilich - Nespithe and Suffocation - Effigy of the Forgotten.

What about Brutality - Screams Of Anguish?

 

[waif]

oh, soulside journey. Forgot about that one. Yeah, I guess that would be my fav.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

What about Brutality - Screams Of Anguish?

Absolutely.

Also, Effigy Of The Forgotten is brutal tech death and the first album ever in that style afaik.

All three of the albums I listed are in my top 20 or so tech death albums ever.

 

[DarkBliss]

Cadaver-...In Pains, without a shadow of a doubt

 

[challenge_everything]

Yeah I never considered TRITSIO to be tech death either. But maybe that's because it's a rare album with composition skill as well as technicality.

Anyway, Augury: Concealed was the first one to come to mind for me but I agree that it's more progressive death than tech death.

In that case, I guess I'll be predictable and say None So Vile or Onset of Putrefaction or Focus.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

That's a very shittily generalized way to think of technical death metal; lots of it has great compositional ability. I'd recommend Gory Blister.
