Technical Death Metal.

A genre that is just Death Metal - Lite, but extremely technical.

Albums you should buy :
Any Gorguts
Cryptopsy None So Vile
Necrophagist Onset to Putrefaction
Any Nile
Any Decapitated
Origin Antithesis


THERE
All you need. :D

I'd do a write up on Tech Death, but beyond the four bands you've mentioned, and Gorguts/Old Cryptopsy, all the bands in that genre are overly redundant, and get boring fast. --


Good point. Severed Savior, Psoriasis, and Deeds of Flesh are pretty interesting but then again that's probably still not enough to write about. Hm...

Chinese metal is obscure, and I haven't found any good bands tbh.

I don't like Behemoth at all, and their genre is a bit hard to pin down so I chose to leave them out. Bodom is more of a power metal band. Alexei doesn't really growl as much as he screams/yells.

I dunno, i always felt Bodom was more death-metal than powermetal.

BTW here's the video I watched way long ago:



@_@ there's even some in flames in there if you listen close enough.

Technical Death Metal is a close cousin to BDM in my opinion.

TDM i can think of...
Cryptopsy
Necrophagist
Decapitated
Origin
Nile
Vital Remains
Deeds of Flesh
Spawn of Possession
Sceptic
Psycroptic
Severed Savior

My personal favorite is Necrophagist because they are much more melodic and progressive with perhaps slightly less of the brutality compared to other bands like Deeds of Flesh or Origin. I tend to like the more "Progressive Technical Death Metal" with bands like T.O.O.H. Athiest later Death albums, Blooted Science, Spastic Ink, and ect...

Countless bands are still "technical" and "death metal"

I think my next one will be thrash metal before I just start doing stuff on individual bands.

You can probably place me in scenario 2
Melodeath is one of my favorite genres, and I don't really like any other forms of Death Metal (with the exception of Opeth for some reason).

Another melodeath band I like is Blood Stain Child. They're from Japan and incorporate electronic/trance elements in their songs. I thought they would suck, but they're actually awesome. Their earlier stuff is more "traditional" and closer to In Flames, while their newer stuff is more trance influenced.
<Wolfpox> i remember when MVP beat that one guy, and everyone was like 'whoa' except that penguin dude.

I would just like to add in that Death Metal is a Opeth dominated genre and most other bands are technically much inferior, and defnitely way more childish in lyrics and approach (costumes, lol).

uh, say that to anybody who actually listens to death metal and you will be laughed at. Suffocation, and Immolation are by far more technical, not even mentioning Atheist or any of the other tech death bands. Childish? Is the only dm band you know Cannibal Corpse...?

Even though the OP omitted grindcore, I'm going to have to add Carcass to this thread. So good.

no mention of Disillusion?

That wasn't any act of God. That was an act of pure human fuckery.

imo children of bodom deserve to be included since you included in flames LOL

never dedicated enough time to dm, obviously listened to deicide and death, a lot of melodic dm that was already covered here, dying fetus, vader etc

absolutely loved hate eternal, path of golconda and zyklon

I've heard Children of Bodom described as Power metal, epic power metal, thrash metal, powerthrash (wut?), melodeath, black, blackened thrash, and some others, but I never heard the death.
