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

Odious Mortem - Cryptic Implosion (2007)

Odious Mortem is a band from San Francisco, California. This is their second full length album. They have been one of the leaders of the California Death Metal scene for some time now. That scene has spawned bands like Decrepit Birth and Severed Saviour, both of which have members from Odious Mortem.

They play very Technical Death Metal with an epic element. When I say epic element I don't mean like this epic, I mean like morbidly epic, like the definition of epic being that you could tell a tale of it. They are very modern in this sense and don't compromise brutality for melodies, which I like a lot and you hopefully do too.

The sound on this album has a definitive character to it. It's for the most part a sound similar to Fleshgod Apocalypse with an active, dirty bass sound, clicky drums and stuff. Although, I do think Odious Mortem sound more organic than Fleshgod Apocalypse. The guitar sound is also very cool but as I don't know much about guitar sound I don't know how to describe it.

All in all it's a fuckin' awesome album.

Complete with artwork from Pår Olofsson who is responsible for most of the really awesome artwork of recent Modern Death Metal.

Soreption - Deterioration of Minds (2010)

Soreption are a band from Sweden. They play awesome Modern Death Metal.


This is a great debut LP. There's lots of groove on this album and you can hear that they can really play their instruments. They also have a fun progressive element in their music that really gives the album a great twist.

It's very cleanly produced and it sounds very modern. They bass really sticks out and works very well with the drum sound.

The Last Felony - Too Many Humans

The Last Felony are a band hailing from Montreal, Canada.  This is the band's sophomore effort. They play a really intense mix of Death Metal with Black metal influences.

It's got loads of groove, technicality and overall tip-top musicianship. Too Many Humans is a heavy album and it sounds massive. I enjoyed it and I think you will too.

I encourage you to comment your thoughts on the albums we post here.

P.S. The artwork is sick!
