This is one of the greatest albums I've heard in a couple of years.

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)

This is excellent! Putting it on twice in a row rn.
Glad you like! Tbh I posted it just because everyone’s talking about this album, but it hasn’t really resonated with me. I’ll have to give it another shot
Gotcha, yeah -- I was thinking it's a little unlike the techdeath you usually post. This is a little more blackened imho, which is more up my usual alley :-D
Nice! Yeah that’s true. I’m always down to explore though. What are some of your favorite blackened death releases? Maybe maybe I’ll queue up a Black[ened] Friday tomorrow
Oh gosh, that's a good question. I don't often think in terms of genres, but I just find myself veering towards black, atmospheric black, black death, dsbm, you know. But, I just looked at a list of blackened death bands and one album stuck out that I love: Esoteric Malacology, by Slugdge. I'm actually not super into stuff like Behemoth, Goatwhore, etc.. it's a little too theatrical and over-the-top for me.
Tomb Mold probably doesn't count, but I've been loving their latest album too. :) Doing a quick scroll through my library here, I'll list some standouts: Ethereal Shroud, Woe, Ash Borer, Lunar Aurora... it's ever-changing!
Yeah same here, I’m not too good at identifying tech/black/prog/melo/core elements, I just go for what sounds good. Hell yeah Esoteric Malacology, love Crop Killer. Tomb Mold is good too, but I know Planetary Clairvoyance better than The Enduring Spirit. The others are new to me, so I’ll check those out, thanks!
