And my old band in the sig. Not pure tech death without beatdowns, but you get the gist.

Cool! I saw you guys supporting Despised Icon last month, you guys melted my face.


Here's some more tech death from here: Entrails Eradicated, Hiroshima Will Burn, Gallows For Grace, Signal The Firing Squad, Synperium, The Red Shore, and Dyscord (not really tech by great anyway). And even though Ulcerate are from NZ they definitely need to get mentioned here too, they're some really really freaky prog/tech death!
 
Is that the DVD that comes with the Ob(servant) Limited Edition?
Didn't come round to watch the studio diary yet, just skimmed through the live gigs, which are not exactly the highest quality...

Nope.
If you read what I wrote, I said the DVD 'Initiation'.
It was only released this year and it's a full live performance that was filmed in Melbourne.
 
At 23 I find my fingers not wanting to move like they used to... dunno how the real guys do it... lots of practice that I just don't have time for I assume....

Plus for some reason my frethand pinky has been kinda-sorta clicking in recent years... no noise it just kinda moves in a not fluid jerky motion.... it's hell on the shredding... :(

-P

That's screwed up man :(
I couldn't imagine having to deal with my pinky going weird like that.
I use the pinkies on both hands for playing (one one fretting hand and also do some picking with my picking hand pinking)
 
Everything is Fire gets my vote for one of the best death metal albums ever
 
@harmonicminorshred: I'm going to be honest, those all sound like deathcore bands :confused:

I get that thing in my pinky aswell sometimes, I dont understand how people use it to play power chords in drop tunings, its nuts.

I did read what you wrote, searched for it on Amazon, didn't find it, then proceeded to ask above question. :loco:

Thanks anyways, guess Germany is to far away from Australia to get awesome stuff from Australia like a Psycroptic DVD. :(
 
I had that with my ring finger when I was about 14 Paulie, it just went away one day, never came back since.

I'm thinking about getting one of those finger exerciser thing, it's not a painful kinda thing so building up the muscle/tendon strength might solve it.. that or I'm thinking about it too much and that's why it won't go away...

I get that thing in my pinky aswell sometimes, I dont understand how people use it to play power chords in drop tunings, its nuts.

I can get lucky and get a bar chord in drop tuning out of my pinky every now and then, but it's getting difficult, spider riffing wise it hasn't affected anything.

Mainly it's my lead stuff, sweeping the most since I usually start alot of my arpeggios with my pinky... ghey.

Anyways.... kinda hijacked the thread there jason, sorry bout that :D

i've had this problem on my fret hand ever since i broke my knuckles/hands a few years ago. basically had a lot of trouble getting up to speed, and only recently started being able to use my pinky again.
funny since my picking hand has had a knife through the back of it and nothing it wrong with it haha
 
Well The Schonenberg Automoton was the first thing that really caught my ear. There is some insane shit Ermz has been working on that hes posted over the last few months, maybe Tech Death was a bad term, just solid fucking metal in general. Melb Shredder has got some killer shit, along with Mago. Its like all the fucking technical guitar talent in the world moved south.

i cant believe how much shit from aussie I been listening too ...lol
 
I think it's cause gear is so expensive...they buy ONE guitar and then practise their arses off, while we buy one guitar and then start thinking about what huitar we'd buy next...we try to make up for technical flaws buy buying better gear...they just play their fucking stagg until they shit on us and our ESP custom dingledeedongees

and yes, I'm drumk
