Technical vs Progressive Metal

[HamburgerBoy]

are you retarded? this thread literally started from the Megadeth conversation in the new guys thread. but again, you're having trouble following conversations. Get help dude.
http://www.ultimatemetal.com/forum/threads/definitive-songs-of-sub-genres.1440087/#post-11809151

again, are you saying that the music on KIMB for example progressively builds up, goes different places and blurs the line between numerous different genres of music? dont use my definition incorrectly you mentally handicapped waste of sperm

I read that thread when only the OP had posted in it. I don't read every thread in this forum and Terasoph gave no indication of this thread being a derivative of that one.

Yes, songs like Last Rites, the title track, and Looking Down the Cross all avoid typical verse/chorus song structures. Your definition used the term "styles", not "genres", are you incapable of reading your own posts?

Thank you for clinically confirming your autism and lack of self-awareness.

What is this supposed to be testing exactly?

What is this supposed to be testing exactly?

If you can't figure that out you might be autistic as well.

 

[Slammed]

I always suspected you liked to deliver the goods

 

[CiG]

If you can't figure that out you might be autistic as well.

No I figured it out straight away, it was very obvious, which is why I was wondering what it is a test for. So it's for autism? That explains it I guess.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

You really think anyone would have trouble with that? oh wow dude, just wow

I always suspected you liked to deliver the goods

Yup, did she finally tell you?

 

[CiG]

You really think anyone would have trouble with that? oh wow dude, just wow

That's why I asked, because it was so simple I thought he was trying to imply you had down syndrome or something.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

the fact that he posted it here like its some kind of test proves that hes a sped lol.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

You really think anyone would have trouble with that? oh wow dude, just wow

So then why is it so hard for you to understand that I didn't read that other thread, and that I wasn't a part of any conversation there?

That's why I asked, because it was so simple I thought he was trying to imply you had down syndrome or something.

Down's syndrome people don't struggle with it. Only autists do.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

I didn't read that other thread

yeah you're a lying faggot, as you just proved in the other thread.

 

[CiG]

Down's syndrome people don't struggle with it. Only autists do.

If you say so, I'm assuming you're speaking from experience.

Simplest differentiation is that prog metal takes after prog rock bands stylistically, while tech metal is just metal with lots of difficult-to-play stuff.

This is not wrong per se. At least as a starting point to make a difference is kinda useful.

For prog metal - the one usually having power/heavy metal elements like early Queensrÿche, Fates Warning, Dream Theater, Symphony X, etc - it works, so it also works for Cynic, Pestilence's Spheres, MAYH-Watershed era Opeth, Ne Obliviscaris, Exivious, Leprous, Spastic Inc, Aghora and so many others. All these bands/albums have a comprehensive songwriting, modes/chord progressions/modulations and they mostly use logical progression of tonality with a sense (or a great use in many cases) of melody.

Technical death metal is basically plain death metal with complex performances and riffs, but not actual compositions, chord progressions and logical harmony/melody, aka Cannibal Corpse, Cryptopsy, Origin, Obscura, Necrophagist and so many others. Death metal is actually very atonal and that factor alone makes it a totally different thing from prog metal, which is isn't in most cases.
