What is the exact distinction between...

the Florida Death Metal and the New York Style?

 

[Cyclonus]

I know that New York styles of any music seem to be faster, less intelectual, more punky... that kind of thing.

Floridian style was mature and had a degree of technicality to it, as it developed...

Just a guess though...

Thanks for your opinion. I can feel something when I listen to the music but can hardly describe them.

New York death sounds like a subway.
Florida death sounds like a swamp.

Enter Immolation. One of the best and biggest bands in the New York death metal scene. Can't say that they sound punky or that they aren't technical now caaaaaaan you?

I dunno about that. Suffocation, and Immolation, who are from New York have quite complex and technical music, while some Florida bands like Death and Morbid Angel have music that is more simple.

Death's music is far from simple

They started out simple. Compared to the later efforts anyways.

I have several Death albums. Their music is not that simple, but it is not as fast or technical as Suffocation or Immolation.

Death's early stuff was quite simple, but the latter stuff (Human,TSOP,ITP) was far and I mean far from simple (highly technical) although it's not relevant to the case since you can't compare Suffocation or Immolation with later Death.
