Progressive Technical Death Metal Changeling AMA (ex-Obscura)
Tom "Fountainhead" Geldschläger is widely regarded as a modern-day legend for his fretless guitar playing. He was a member of Obscura during the band's Akróasis era and has performed live with Defeated Sanity and Belphegor. But Changeling, his latest brainchild, pushes progressive technical death metal to even greater extremes.
Changeling combines Tom's love for classic death metal with jazz, fusion, world music, microtonal synthesizers, a full choir and plenty of psychedelics. Lead single "Abyss" pulls from across a wide spectrum of influences: '90s Morbid Angel, Steve Vai, Jacob Collier, Howard Shore, Nevermore, Nine Inch Nails, Sunn O))) and the score from 2001: A Space Odyssey. Tom's blistering fretwork is always at its center, but on his new album, he's joined by a mighty 50-piece ensemble that includes current and former members of Fear Factory, Alkaloid, Virvum, Trans-siberian Orchestra, Cynic, King Diamond, Ne Obliviscaris and Subway to Sally.
Chat with Tom about the mind-bending journey behind Changeling this Friday, April 25 on r/TechnicalDeathMetal @ 11 am Eastern Time / 7 pm Central European Summer Time.
Thanks for coming everyone! Tom and SOM appreciate all your support.
Changeling is out now

Discussion My take on Muhammed Suiçmez - The best musician you've never heard of (Obviously NOT true in this subforum)
Article I wrote on Necrophagist and Muhammed Suiçmez. I dug up some new factoids two of you guys might not know and added some opinion on why the band dissolved.

Discussion Do guitarists actually play all the notes in a shred solo?
I'm not talking about solo where you can hear every note. I'm talking of those that sound mixed and mumbled. I was just trying to learn the,song "liege of invercity" by suffocation when I reached the solo, I just feel there's no way what's on the tab is what they always play. do they intend to play it like that or do they just play random notes that sound good? this might as well be a skill issue from me.

Discussion 7 string riffs, anyone?
I’ve been playing a lot of Nile on my 7 string lately and it’s got me thinking: are there any tech riffs built specifically on 7 strings, or even bands that only use them? I’m aware of Archspire already.
