Technical Tuesday – Which did not start very technical at all

Posted by Witness to the Void on May 1, 2012 in Now Playing | 1 comment

Today began dreary and overcast, the perfect weather for seriously misanthropic music. Not one to miss out on this, I spun some Anaal Nathrakh and Mistress, who, although not very technical, definitely know how to bring the metal. Anaal Nathrakh play an absolutely virulent blend of black/grind/industrial/death with some falsetto power metal vocals thrown in for good measure, while Mistress (with 4 of 5 members also being in Anaal Nathrakh) deliver some of the most disgusting music I have ever heard. Its sludge/grind for waking up facedown in the gutter.

Now Playing: Lots of music on Tuesday!

Introducing… Technical Tuesday!

At my place of employment I enjoy the distinctly awesome opportunity of being able to listen to music of my choice while working. This of course allows me to listen to a lot of metal. The weather outside very much influences my choice in music – once old man winter leaves for the year, Immortal’s At the Heart of Winter doesn’t see rotation again until the first snow.

If the season can influence my music choice, why not the day? Hence, Technical Tuesday, a new weekly column where I will be giving very short summaries on each album I listened to, and picking a weekly winner. Let’s begin….

Decrepit Birth plays Death

A little thing worth mentioning about the “Polarity” album from Decrepit Birth is the song cover. You can listen to the very own interpretation of “See Through Dreams” by Death. This version is pretty decent. Brutal, meat sound suits very well to the regular tracks. It is not a revolutionary version but it keeps the original atmosphere. Worth listening for sure.

Long live Death!

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!
