Technical Death Metal

[DarkBliss]

Get Pestilence's Testimony of the Ancients if you like Atheist.

Yeah, The Faceless are good, I can't wait for their new one.

Me either.

One of the best new bands I've heard.

Bumping this thread to just say how much I love love love Warp Zone by Martyr.

 

[The Emptier]

3 years...damn, a lot has happened for the tech death scene

 

[Mayhem_MetalHead]

Is The Faceless considered technical death metal? or are they more deathcore?

 

[The Emptier]

Ew, in no way are they deathcore. Tech death for sure, one of the leading bands in the new way of tech death bands...can't wait for the new one

 

[waif]

Except for their first album, which is blatantly deathcore.

Is it better than Feeding the Abscess? That's the only album I've heard from them and it's one of my top 10 favorite tech death albums ever!

I think it flows a little better. It's not as brutal, so if you prefer brutality over flow you probably won't like it as much. Both are good though.

Martyr's Warp zone and Feeding the Abcess are awesome albums. But fuck I hate The Faceless.

Went ahead and got it and it's fucking amazing! Maybe it's too premature to say it tops FtA after the first playthrough, but it's definitely just as good!

Surprisingly I have not heard any Martyr, maybe I have but I might not have liked it...i shall try again though

Atheist is Tech Death

I would also consider them to be progressive death.

 

[Dak]

Upon re-listening to Feeding the Abcess, I think where Martyr went wrong on that album is it is too long without offering anything noticably different.

VEIL OF MAYA!!!!! ALL SHALL PERISH!!!

VEIL OF MAYA!!!!! ALL SHALL PERISH!!!

No !!! No !!!

Seriously though, Martyr sounds great. And Anata, which is one of my favourite Tech DM bands. The Conductor's Departure is a kickass album.

Gorod's also one of the best Tech DM bands around. Leading Vision is damn sexy.

Anyone heard Brain Drill's 'Quantum Catastrophe' yet? They've rebuilt their lineup with Odious Mortem's bassist and Flesh Consumed's drummer. Crazy technical material - like, Origin-esque levels of widdly, fluid sweep picks. Just a shame that except for a couple of moments here and there, it's all just faceless blasting and widdling. Reviewed it for OneMetal earlier today - should still be on the front page if anyone's interested - just click the link in my sig.

Dying Fetus, Psycroptic, Origin, The Faceless, Trigger The Bloodshed, Fleshgod Apocalypse, Suffocation, Obscura, and Revocation are some of my favs.
