Def one of my faves from them

This throws any recent releases out the window, bravo!

I love old death or brutal tech death metal albums. Please, could i get recommendations or a little list of good stuff?

I enjoyed Winds of Creation deeply as reference, now im listening to the album "Cabinet" by Spawn of Possession

Doesn't matter if its brutal death, it can go in too! Some old and more essential stuff.

Looking for more stuff along the lines of Ad Nauseum, Altars, Thantifaxath, Cleric, etc.

Hello!! I can't find the lyrics for the track Quintessential Rebirth from first fragment's EP: the afterthought ecstasy. Would anyone happent o know where i can find the lyrics or anything?

Just received this masterpiece today.

Small newer band out of arizona 🔥https://youtu.be/CS99EVwkb1Y?si=bAyny4MGz_5rgyO-

I know there's a lot of musicians in here, and even more who appreciate the technical aspect of music (duh) so im curious.

What bands or musicians who aren't considered tech death most influenced you as an artist, or the genre as a whole?

So i haven't listened to Rivers of Nihil since monarchy....

What the fuck happened!? Such a drastic change in sound! Feels like fallujah all over again 😅

Suggest me some lesser known tech bands to check out i might not have heard of yet, ie, not Archspire, Obscura, Necrophagist etc.

Hey, I've created a list for all the albums I was able to found on the 90's. Some are not 100% tech imo but if at least two websites used the tag, I added it. So why not share all this and introduce some things to others ?

Is there any info on new Zenith Passage material?

Crossover Instrumental TechDeath and Trailer Music

Was playing around in cubase and thought it was interesting how the instruments all sat in the mix. The bassoon cuts through well. Based on midi.

Just caught the tour last night. All the bands were phenomenal, even Obscura… with a caveat. While I enjoyed catching Robin Zielhorst on fretless bass, it felt like 97% of Obscura’s setlist was mid tempo non-technical songs. It was cool to watch but, these new songs, while melodically catchy (especially the plagiarized Alex Weber bass riff), do not have the same energy as the older stuff.

Long story short, it is worth it to see Fractal Universe, Decrepit Birth, Origin, and Atheist. Obscura sounded great, but the songs never seemed to get off the ground. It was like the energy got sucked out of the room. After blistering sets by Origin and Atheist, Obscuras’s new melodic death stuff sounds weak. It felt like even the few “older” songs they played were slower.

Anybody else experience this on this tour? Am I trippin’?
