Extreme Progressive Metal

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

Symbyosis fucking rules.

It saddens me that no one else mentions Cynic or Atheist. :<

Because Atheist is boring thrash metal, I dunno about Cynic though never checked em out.

 

[Son of Evil]

Cynic kick ass, and both Cynic and Atheist have been mentioned already.

Isn't a good bit of Black Metal Progressive? Even Emperor can be placed in the category. And some people call Wintersun progressive, but they are pretty much accessible...more Power than Prog.

Green Carnation and Orphaned Land are good bands as well.

 

[Faint]

Akercocke. Suprised no-one said them already.

 

[Life Sucks]

Pavor (free form styled technical death metal)
Sworn (like a heavier version of Opeth. progressive doomdeath, I guess)
Coram Lethe (kinda like Cynic, but IMO they are better)
Scald (the Irish one, not the Russian doom band. progressive extreme metal)
Ordog (very strange progressive raw black metal)
The Elysian Fields (progressive blackened death)

 

[Belligerent]

I kinda think I know what he means...he wants extreme metal crossed with prog, maybe like a more extreme version of Opeth or something?

Thurisaz - Circadian Rhythm then. Try it.

 

[ohiogrinder]

mad props to whomever said Pestilence. they wipe the floor with all other prog-death bands out there.

 

[DigToChina]

Farmakon - A Warm Glimpse

 

[PrettyPetri]

Wintersun.

 

[King Size]

Devin Townsend, Meshuggah, Opeth, Into Eternity, Biomechanical, Mastodon, Wintersun, Communic, Death, Sikth, Akercocke, Dodheimsgard, Disillusion, Cynic, Textures, Unexpect, Atheist, Enslaved … & well that pretty much sums up my thoughts so far. Good luck! =) I might have some use for this thread as well.

Ihsahn?

 

[HerynGalueth]

What about the album "Buried in Oblivion" by Into Eternity?
I like this album very much...
Also how about those greek brothers Wastefall and especially their splendid albums "Soulrain21" and "Self Exile"...Not so exterme but certainly heavy and progressive!
Have fun dude!

Thank you very much everyone. I'll look into every recommendation!

 

[General Zaroff]

TSOP-era Death.

Not super fucking extreme but definitley worth checking out if you haven't heard.

 

[TartanLlama]

Continuo Renacer, Canvas Solaris, Blotted Science, Cynic, Athiest, late Death, Psyopus.

 

[sevag00]

wtf?

 

[Dem0n0id]

Between the buried and me (a core version of opeth)
Gojira
Moonlyght
Arcturus
Agalloch
Borknagar
In the Woods

Not all of them are as technical as some of the one's already mentioned, but definitely progressive.
Some might not be all the extreme either.

This thread is one year old.
