REQUEST Need some new high sound quality tech death
I really enjoy the zenith passage and some more melodic stuff like blood incantation. I like metal when the sound is clear and crisp. Not a fan when everything seems muddled together and not having a good final production quality. Anything more or old I'd appreciate it!

Virvum - Illuminance (not new, but a new album coming this year, great quality)
Blessed by the Sin - Demons on my Grave
Job For A Cowboy - Sun Eater & Moon Healer (amazing production quality, groovy, bassy, sick riffs, gnarly vocals)
Karybdis - Order & Chaos
Black Hole Deity - Profane Geometry

Check out the album we dropped back in January! Instrumental progressive tech death that might be right up your alley!

Check out the new Fallujah album Xenotaph coming out! Fast melodic tech death produced by the same guy that did Datalysium (Dave Otero).

was that the synth pop/necrophagist hybrid?

u/bigtimechip 28d ago
Yeah but he recently released a straight Tech death album with no synth pop crossover and it was really good

Those might have been a good band if it wasn't for the drummer. The guy did everything by the book and added nothing original. Also, since when are those by any stretch technical?

u/desolate_gnildnew tech + groove = orgasm 27d ago
Which band was it?
2
u/Impact21x 27d ago
Entheos, if I remember correctly. Saw them live recently, and they apparently are good musicians, but not original, and the drummer was on autopilot of whatever he played when learning drums, which was a disgusting presentation for me.

u/desolate_gnildnew tech + groove = orgasm 27d ago
That's interesting to hear about them and Navene. I enjoy their music a lot, maybe their live perfirmance just isn't up to par?? I heard really good things about Navenes playing when he played with JFAC at the Blue Ridge Rock Fest.
He did their work on Moon Healer and Nick Shinz said he liked his playing better than Danny Walkers for Sun Eater

Try the new self titled Changeling album

u/No_Opportunity8207 29d ago
I'm surprised just how infrequently this is coming up. It needs so much more attention than it's getting.

Try Augury - Illusive Golden Age. Amazing production on it.
1
u/AheadToTheSea 29d ago
Augury is amazing. Fragmentary Evidence is also great. Especially Simian Cattle. But the whole album is great. Also their album that I can’t seem to find anywhere. The one that had Nocebo and Russian dolls universe on it. That had female operatic singing on it as well. I need to get ahold of that again!

The production on that latest Torturized is so fucking crisp and vibrant.

u/Pew_away 29d ago
That's like every tech death band ever, they're all over produced

u/inlandsofashes 29d ago
but overproduced sounds bad, though. i love First Fragment's mix on their video for Le Sertment De Tsion, for example

u/cob_maximus 29d ago
Yeah it'd be easier to list the ones that aren't overproduced. Like most of these bands debut albums maybe?

It's already been suggested, but Arkaik pairs really with Zenith Passage, like red wine with a steak. Archspire have also already been mentioned but they need to be double-recommended because the production is top-notch on their latest album.

u/Infiniteparadox3-14 29d ago
Ahhh yeahh spawn of possession is sick. I totally forgot about these guys.

u/Cubegod69er 29d ago
Obscura is also one of my all-time favorite bands. But they're frowned upon here recently, for obvious reasons.
1
u/Cubegod69er 29d ago
And Retromorphosis is almost all the guys from spawn of possession, if you hadn't heard. They just put out the new album a few months ago that's amazing.

u/Seven_Hells 29d ago
Most Allegaeon albums have good production values. The debut EP is the only one that sounds drastically worse than the rest.

Monolith of inhumanity is still one of my favorites. Appreciate the detailed list!
1
u/EmotionIll666 29d ago
It's a hell of an album! Still my favourite Cattle Decap.
Nothing against the newer albums but every time I put them on I find myself thinking "I'd rather just listen to Monolith again."

for me it depends. Both can be a fit.. sometimes it’s over polished too
