[Hell Awaits Us All]

big nile fan as well... I'm a pretty big fan of pretty much any technical DM

 

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

Nile aren't technical death metal...have you heard Gorod? Check them out asap.

 

[cookiecutter]

Have you heard Necrophagist? They seem to be all the rage in terms of techdeath these days.

 

[Hell Awaits Us All]

big fan of their 1st CD... first time listening to their CD - my mouth dropped to the ground and never got up

Nile is tech dm, but a good place to start is something more accessible like Necrophagist.

edit: slow post, again try Anata (most recent release) then

Necrophagia is better than Necrophagist

 

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

Necrophagist aren't as "cool" to listen to as they used to be, and the gimmick has sort of worn off to these ears; that's not to say they're sans merit, though...I like to listen to a few songs off their (his, actually) first CD here and there. It's also good to annoy/impress the fuck out of people with.

The current best tech-death bands are:

Gorod
Spawn Of Possession
Gory Blister
Anata

Edit: Necrophagia are horrible.

 

[Hell Awaits Us All]

I've heard alot of good things about spawn of possession

I'm gonna go to soul seek right now

<<excited for martyr's new CD coming out soon

 

[Slayed Necros]

Necrophobic is better than all the other Necro-bands.

I actually got a promo yesterday in the mail by the band Necrodeath. So bad.

 

[Dazed and Brutal]

Bigdave, if you end up like spawn of possession then try Theory in Practice

If I remember correctly, Fragments of Insanity is pretty good.

 

[Dazed and Brutal]

If I remember correctly, Fragments of Insanity is pretty good.

I was given their most recent "100% Hell", it's total garbage (literally I threw it out)

 

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

Yeah they became shit circa Tone(s) Of Hate. Fragments Of Insanity and Mater Of All Evil are fucking great black-thrashers, worthy of praise in any circle in that style, for sure. The latter also has a very enigmatic title and I don't think we've figured out if it's a typo or just random Latin for no reason ("Mater" = "Mother" in Latin).

 

[Mr_Haze]

Or you could take it literally and interpret it along the lines of 'Procreation Of The Wicked'... haha

 

[skeptik]

It's a typo. Their first three albums are good, and their demos are even better.

 

[Death Aflame]

How about some good symphonic/melodic black metal? No obvious stuff.

Veneficum - Enigma Prognosis

hey guys about some DM??

I like DM: good production, good heavy but at least moderately coherent vocals, as technical as possible, interesting lyrics, heavy off course but with as much as melody as possible

Depresy's A Grand Magnificence or Sighting.

 

[ohiogrinder]

I get into a shift crazy mood sometimes and just capitolize random things. I like De mysteriis dom Sathanas so much, I just don't ever care to put on Deathcrush, but this makes me think Deathcrush is at least worth hearing.

I actually gave it a second listen, its not as bad as I remember it. still nothing compared to De Mysteriis, though.

 

[ohiogrinder]

What do ya'll think of Dillinger Escape Plan?

eh, they're ok

 

[ohiogrinder]

The Oath of Black Blood is way better.
