Technical Death Metal

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

Rules:

  1. Don't be a dick.

  2. 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!

  3. 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.

Amon Amarth - Gods of War Arise (Sweden, 2006)

When I first heard this (2006?!), I was just amused by the Norse/Viking imagery, but many headbanging sessions later, this remains a classic for me. I don't know melodic death metal very well, so this is my standard-bearer for the genre.

I do love me some Amon Amarth it's my happy fun metal ☺️

I also really love Carach Angren, I've had this song stuck in my head all week ... And The Consequences Macabre

And also Avatar The Eagle Has Landed is a fun video to watch.

Agalloch - Ashes Against the Grain. Atmospheric black metal - great for dark rainy nights!

See now we’re talking - black metal is one of those tangentially related genres I keep meaning to check out more properly, and this one sounds approachable, thanks!
