Son Of Aurelius – rising star!
Posted by Rimmön in New TDM CD's on September 3rd, 2010
A nice coming through from USA band – Son Of Aurelius! Debut album “The Farthest Reaches” is the perfect solution for every ‘more than technical’ fan! Sterile sound (in a good way!) or VERY selective, as some may say, makes this album very specialistic. Every note is intensively exposed to daylight and believe me, there’s lot’s and lot’s of notes. You could say there’s overwhelming, technical feeling but that’s the way it should be. You can’t blame them of being too technical – that’s the virtuosic mastery in here.
Oh, there’s one more thing worth mentioning. The album lyrical theme is greek mythology. Pretty new ‘thing’ in technical death (or am I wrong?). Get it as soon as possible!
“The Farthest Reaches” tracklist:
1. Mercy For Today
2. Let Them Hate and Fear
3. The Farthest Reaches
4. Olympus is Forgotten
5. Facing the Gorgon
6. Pandora’s Burden
7. A Champion Reborn
8. Mycordial Infarction
9. The Calm
10. A Good Death
11. The First, the Serpent
A perfect study of the genre?

If You’re into technical death metal, You surely got into this band. Their new flagship hit the stores at July 27th through Nuclear Blast records! This reminded me first albums of Gorod and Necrophagist but composed with some neo-classical feel and still maintaing lot’s of brutality! I introduce to You DECREPIT BIRTH new album… “Polarity“!
From the begining there’s lot’s of genuine technicality and solo virtuosity. Perfect sound, amazing, deep feel and catchy, yet brutal brain-grinding. “Polarity” kicks hard in the ass. And when You thought that in technical death metal can’t do nothing more or fresh… take a look again at this American lads! Pure technical hell! I love it!
Never’s long awaited new cd…

Amazingly technical album from polish metallers – NEVER. Thrashy alike sound and lots of wild stop’s and go’s. Beside this, “Back To The Front” features guest vocals (duo’s and solo appearances) of Angela Gossow from Arch Enemy and guitar parts by Mauser (Unsun, ex-Vader). A must check for any technical fan! It will be out in two days – 31 march 2010!

First longplay from Centaurus-A
Posted by Rimmön in New TDM CD's on September 26th, 2009
This is a debut album from a rising German star – Centaurus-A. Alot of modern technical death metal riffs. Many devastating blasts and very intense, crushing sound makes this release more than amusing! Double vocals, sudden stops and magnificent drumming will kill You. Electronic samples adds interesting atmosphere here and there…
