Really Heavy Tech/Math Metal

[General Zaroff]

Stuff similar to Meshuggah.

 

[Satanstoenail]

Coprofago

Five Star Prison Cell

 

[tagradh]

My favorite 'technical' band is probably Spawn Of Possession.

 

[Fury of the Storm]

Beneath the Massacre perhaps?

Dream Theater's Dark Eternal Night is pretty heavy and Technical.

also maybe Neuraxis and Gorguts.

 

[Nephrenka]

you might like Ion Dissonance's Breathing is Irrelevant album, fits your description pretty well.

Great song there

Try Textures. Both their albums are really good but "Drawing Circles" is heavier than "Polars." You can stream some songs off of their website and last.fm

I hate Meshuggah and thankfully I haven't heard anything that sounded like them and their crap style. All of these recommendations are thankfully false cause I actually liked the bands listed but hate Meshuggah.

 

[Hell Awaits Us All]

gorguts
demilich
dillinger escape plan (more hardcore but whatever)
nile
immolation
suffocation
augury

all technical and still heavy as fuck.

 

[Jimmy... Dead.]

Do me a favor and Dled Dillinger Escape Plan's song 43% burnt.

Then get their album calculating infinity. Their best album

Well you are In Flames' numba 1 fan, sooo...

Most of these recs seem like logical suggestions, although I don't enjoy any of them as much as Meshuggah themselves.

 

[DigToChina]

Arsis are heavy technical death metal, forgot to mention them.

Could someone please explain to me what the fuck Mathe Metal is? I've asked at other times and so far, no-one has answered my question...

Could someone please explain to me what the fuck Math Metal is?

there is no such thing. It's just a useless term, that arose out of people's need for overcategorization. Like flower metal, norsecore,horrocore etc.

[Mort Divine]

Horrorcore is a legitimate style of hip-hop, math metal refers to technical metalcore, flower metal is vocal/keyboard lead power metal, and norsecore is just bland speed focus insipid black metal

I'm not too good with the music playing/composing so I don't know all the specific terms but math metal refers to band like Ion Dissonance who play different rythms throughtout the song, their song structure are all calculate, like rythms say: 6-8-6-10-6 whatever you get the idea... They don't use normal riffs or beat patterns. Like I said I'm not too good about explaining such things but you get the idea they play certain riffs, drum beat/pattern or bass riffs a certain amount a time before changing pace/riff. it's quite easy to understand once you've listen to Ion Dissonance and Dillinger Escape Plan.

So it's like regular songs but more chaotic since the riffs don't follow a regular predetermined pattern like most songs do.

[Alasdhair]
