Diskreet - Engage The Mechanicality

Shit, I found this album earlier today. I have been thinking recently about how hard it is to find a great Technical Death Metal release these days. At last, I have found a great one.

Diskreet are a band from Topeka, Kansas. They play very Technical Death Metal with a very modern sound and feel. This is their first full length album. They have released one EP previously that was very highly acclaimed. A great up and coming band.

This album is incredible. One of the best tech death albums of this year in my opinion. I know I haven't listened to it extensively but I have been listening ever since I grabbed it. I really like the new wave of tech death and this band fits into that scene perfectly.

The album is heavy and technical without overdoing it. They blend the styles very well and also incorporate that occasional breakdown and solo. I think it works very well for them and the album sounds great too. It was mixed by Micheal Keene (The Faceless) and Dave Otero (Cephalic Carnage).

P.S. Awesome album cover from Pår Olofsson
