A community for the technical death metal subgenre. Share and discuss music that melts your face!

Rules:

Don't be a dick.
Try not to get too bogged down in genre-gatekeeping. Discussing the "tech" credentials of some release/band is fun, but as long as it's oozing viscera, it probably has a place here. Shredbang!
Suggested (not enforced) music-posting format, mostly to distinguish band name from album/song title:
Artist - Album Or Song (Location, Year) (ffo: These Bands) (links)
ffo ("for fans of") and added links (e.g. YouTube, Spotify, Bandcamp, Encyclopaedia Metallum) are optional but can make it easier to check out the music you're sharing.

Examples:

Carnosus - Fermenting Blastospheres of Future Putridity (Sweden, 2023)
Job For A Cowboy - Sun Eater (USA-AZ, 2014) (ffo: All Shall Perish, Wretched) (yt, s, bc, em)

I remember Slipknot as being the radio-friendly stand-in for hardcore, with MTV-ish radio hits like Duality. But damn, I forgot how HARD they went on the first couple albums. This is a great example of why plenty of death metal fans in my age range cite them as a gateway drug.

I'm hooked on a couple of different bands right now.. Vulture Industries is one, they're kind of an avant-garde prog metal rock band? As the World Burns has been stuck in my head for a week now.

Blackbraid is great as well, black metal isn't really my thing but he's got a great atmosphere that I really enjoy.

Nice! I love genre crossovers like that. Winds of Tragedy did that for me recently for black metal. I’ll have to check out Vulture Industries and Blackbraid

I've never heard of Winds of Tragedy before, but I just checked out Our Time is Gone and it's a pretty great song, I'll have to check out the rest 🙂
