It pisses me off when ppl say dying fetus, morbid angel or whatever.
Cephalic carnage are quite close, and definitely death/ atheist, but is there anything that is closer?

To describe what I like about necrophagist: - unbelievable guitar solos/ riffs - groovy, rhythmic phrasing - deep understanding of melodic nuances - respectable vocals - good, precise, interesting drumming just wondered if there was something I had missed. It kind of sucks cos necro are like in my top 30 bands and i wish there were similar bands like them. | ||

Awesome :D. Also can anyone recommend any black metal along the lines of Deathspell Omega and Order of the Ebon Hand? I just have a liking for melodic chorusguitars . Also can anyone share in my reverence for immortal . Where dark and light don't differ ftw!!! | ||

In the lines of sick guitars and cool vocals: Naglfar (really close to Deathspell Omega) Winds of Plague All Shall Perish Dimmu Borgir (Symphonic) Abigail Willaims (sort of Symphonic) The Black Dahlia Murder (cool overall) PM me for more bands if you like these ones. Look them up on myspace music. | ||

Progressive Tech: Rad A Trest Cynic Spiral Architect Brutal Tech Death Metal: Insidious Decrepancy Lust of Decay Deeds of Flesh Vital Remains Arsis Not exactly what you were asking for, but I think you'll enjoy these bands. There are still similarities with Necrophagist for most of these bands. Yea, Immortal rapes I love them, also Rhapsody is hilarious, pretty good neoclassical powermetal shit. | ||

GORGUTS GORGUTS GORGUTS LISTEN TO GORGUTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They are the most technical and innovative death metal band ever created. Listen to the album Obscura. I'm warning you though, it's not as catchy as Necrophagist. lol incontrol, as much as i loved these guys(because it's not the same guys running the band now) they are far from that, and the next album will suck I have a feeling.It will have a lot more thrash influences than death metal.And they aren't a death metal band, just have some influences. They are a metalcore band first and foremost. It's great pump up music but it's nothing special in terms of musicallity Another band I would recommend is Beneath the Massacre, another Montreal band. Very technical and groovy. Suffocation and The Faceless are great as well | ||

I can't really get into the poor production and the desire to make the music sound/be bad just to fit into some anti-trendy trend. Immortal, Marduk, Emperor, Mayhem and ect are still all fucking killer amazing though.... Technical Black Metal is good shit. | ||

Cryptopsy/Nile etc should be obvious. There are also progressive/technical bands I could mention such as :TOOH: and Lykanthea Aflame/Lykanthea, Empyrean Sky, Unmoored etc. Don't get me started on Black Metal either. Then Fakesteve would have to ban me to shut me up <_< | ||

Riff quality and song construction in Black Metal bands is key. Which is exactly what a lot of newer bands lack in their mad stampede for 'kvlt'ness and 'atmosphere' (ie, more keyboard whoring) and why older bands who've moved on beyond Black Metal still produce great material. Well, imho anyway. | ||

you guys know your stuff! :D thanks for all the advice I liked the beneath the massacre song...even if a little derivative from necrophagist, the musicianship was fucking insane too lol. Maybe not as much in the song structure as necro but really cool riffing and stuff :D. Decrepit birth I still have to make my mind up wow spawn of possession. Just listening now...that's some good shit. Damn I don't want to go to bed i want to listen :O:O:O This spawn of possession is fucking awesome because they sound like Nile + necrophagist my two favourite death metal bands :D. Man so much stuff to listen to! I could go on for ages though...because i like everything that is good...so can some ppl also give me THRASH bands either like megadeth or like exodus/slayer :O! also meh I might as well ask does anyone like ALL of these: stevie wonder, the beach boys, focus, rush, jason becker, steve vai, the prodigy, the clash, the jam, madness, the specials, michael jackson, eddie van halen, orchestra baobab, lethal bizzle, dizzee rascal, mc bearman, pendulum, muse, tower of power, the bee gees, FAITH NO MORE omg, mr bungle, frost, NWA, Run DMC, Sugarhill Gang, beastie boys, level 42, yes, asia, average white band, john coltrane, charlie parker, miles davis, black sabbath, ratm, audioslave...wow i could go on...does anyone like those :D.

My Thrash Knowledge < My Progressive/experimental knowledge. Way, waaaay too many of the thrash bands I could name are black/death/thrash or so on, so I've tried to stick to ones that are either clearly modern thrash, bay area thrash, etc. And Obscura - > I will assume this is the one from Munchen, ala Progressive death rather than the Death Thrash one. Both are good. | ||

Other obvious ones you've probably heard of would be Nile, Spawn of Possession, Defeated Sanity, Cryptopsy, Gorguts, Mithras (This is pretty much right up your alley, though a little more focused on the ambient/atmospheric side), and T.O.O.H. There's a pretty good resource for tabs/covers/video lessons for alot of really technical stuff over at www.riversofgore.com, and I know all the guys who do the covers/video lessons are into pretentious wankery death metal.

If you want all out technicality, try Behold...The Arctopus. They are sometimes compared to Necrophagist (a comparison that holds up in some ways and doesn't in others.) Behold... is a purely instrumental 3 piece technical metal band. Check them out HamerD, you'll probably dig them. They are at LEAST as technical as Necrophagist. Oh, another band that comes to mind that you might like is Psyopus. They aren't like Necrophagist, but the guitar work is pretty damn technical. Their sound, however, is very much more chaotic than Necrophagist, but you'll probably be impressed with the overall technical abilities of everyone in the band, particularly on "Our Puzzling Encounters Considered" - their latest album. | ||

Also, can anyone suggest any bands very similar in style (super progressive technical) to them? The only ones that come to mind would be Death's later work. Atheist, Cynic, Sadist maybe, Control Denied.... I'm having trouble finding bands that push the envelope in this direction while also maintaining structure, sound, and production. I would have to somehow squeeze Cephalic Carnage into this mix even though they're much more death metal oriented... That's not bad though. Also, for the OP, I prolly shoulda mentioned Psycroptic.... Trying to avoid the more well known bands to recommend as you already know those. and while i'm at it: not nearly as technical as whichever necrophagist song was cited earlier. Tis still good considering it's just 1 guy and a drum machine. Very good rhythm | ||

My favorite Black Metal band is Hate Forest, and supposedly the eventual sole member was supposed to start a new band. I know some of the guys went to Drudkh, and Autumn Aurora is an amazing album, but Battlefields is probably in my top 5 albums of all time so I'd like to hear what this guy came up with since the end of Hate Forest. | ||

EDIT: after finally looking at the other pages i retract this statement mostly, it got back on track. technical death metal sounds a lot like regular death metal to the ear, just a lot more complex, and a lot of people might just assume it was pure death metal. two bands i know of that can be described as technical death metal are Anata and Arsis. i guess a close cousin to technical death metal would be brutal death metal (the brutality usually having more to do with themes than style) ... and death metal (there are still some bands that classify themselves as and play pure death metal, like kataklysm from canada). i like wintersun and dimmu borgir and all these bands you guys keep naming but cmon, they're not what the guy asked for. and to the OP, http://www.metal-archives.com/ is your friend. EDIT: i'd recommend a band, Daath (semi-local to me i guess but they're on a major record label now i think), as they're progressive death metal and progressive death metal bands can also have similar form to what you're asking about. they might not be exactly what you're looking for, but i think you should try them out anyway. | ||

Personally I think any band that gets so "technical" (uh too much drums or something?) that they are bereft of any melody, even if only a basic one, simply become a pure wall of sound with no real tempo, rhythm, groove, "beat", or any other reason to listen to music. plus you eventually tune out the intensity factor (the only thing that sort of sound gives you). There are a lot of bands in this thread that give me this feeling.. | ||

I even put a warning that it wasnt catchy. It's a complete waste of time to someone who doesn't know anything about metal to try and listen to such a band. This is a lot more complex than just random noises. These are two posts that stroke me about Gorguts, when someone was debatting that Opeth was a lot better. ''Comparing Opeth to Gorguts is like comparing a fine piece of artwork to a child's fingerpainting, one is much more advanced and artistically worthwhile than the other.'' ''a lot of great art requires further analysis than just perceiving the picture. Gorguts, likewise requires further explication than merely listening. But really they're like trying to compare Salvador Dali to Vincent Van Gogh. Different worlds of their own.'' | ||

i don't think i've seen them mentioned here, but Decapitated definitely falls into Technical Death metal. doesn't really sound like Necrophagist, but Decapitated is still awesome. the drumming and guitars = holy shit. try these songs: Spheres of Madness, Post Organic, The Eye of Horus. (the drummer died after getting into a car crash, though, RIP. ) Vehemence is pretty good, too, though it's really more melodic/brutal than technical. you still might like it. | ||

Some of the problems im having are that well a lot of these bands aren't trying to be what necrophagist are trying. Most people who really know necrophagist know that they are NOT supposed to be technical wankery for the sake of technical wankery. Every song has a theme and progress, and the solos are truly epic. And another thing is necrophagist isn't actually that fast. A problem I have is that i've never been into 'heavy death metal'. With the exception of nile, I think Pantera and Metallica covered 'heavy'. I prefer melody and groove to any sort of musicianship. But whatever, for people like you haxxorised you dont need to restate your advice cos ill check out all of these bands and maybe learn a few of their songs. On a related note, does anyone play guitar/bass/sing tech death and want to do an internet collaboration with me? I'm feeling creative atm. I just wrote a song called 'aggressive organ removal for sex with organs', it's about a guy who steals hammond organs from bands on stage ^^ | ||

You could listen to Demise Empire. Demise Empire It is not really technical but its Death Metal with some soloing and some Black influences *SelfPromotionMode OFF* If you like guitar Solos, listen to Vader. They are not technical, too but their solos kick ass! Another very entertaining band is "Jack Slater" ( technical brütal Hasen death ) They are great musicians and the singer kicks ass, too! Hope this helped | ||

You rang? If you're looking for something like exodus/slayer, Testament is a good choice. Try The Legacy, The New Order, and The Gathering. Those are probably their three best albums. Overkill would be another good choice. Also, you might want to try the teutonic metal scene out. The big three bands there are Kreator, Destruction, and Sodom, and all three of them kick ass. Tankard is another fun band, really good thrash and fun lyrics. That's the louder thrash. There's also more traditional thrash, like Death Angel, Laaz Rockit, Metal Church (you could make a case for this being heavy instead), Heathen (they rock! You can download their songs for free on their site -> http://www.heathenmetal.com/ . Click the discography and scroll down, you can find it there. Also, you can find their 2005 demo in the forums. It kills.) Then there's the crossover bands; I know three of 'em, and all three are very good. D.R.I, Municipal Waste (saw them live, they're amazing), and Nuclear Assault, the latter being more thrash and the first being more hardcore then thrash. It's in general a bit faster then thrash and the lyrics are a bit harder to understand, but it's great. There's also the new generation of thrash bands, which try to play similar to the old-school style. The biggest band here is Evile. Then a few bands which I wouldn't know where to put, like Sadus, Razor, Voivod, Merciless Death, etc, but the list is getting too long now so I'll stop here. | ||

I'm not someone who likes to pigeonhole my musical taste, as you can see a while back when i put a few of my favourite bands . Some of the problems im having are that well a lot of these bands aren't trying to be what necrophagist are trying. Most people who really know necrophagist know that they are NOT supposed to be technical wankery for the sake of technical wankery. Every song has a theme and progress, and the solos are truly epic. And another thing is necrophagist isn't actually that fast. A problem I have is that i've never been into 'heavy death metal'. With the exception of nile, I think Pantera and Metallica covered 'heavy'. I prefer melody and groove to any sort of musicianship. But whatever, for people like you haxxorised you dont need to restate your advice cos ill check out all of these bands and maybe learn a few of their songs. On a related note, does anyone play guitar/bass/sing tech death and want to do an internet collaboration with me? I'm feeling creative atm. I just wrote a song called 'aggressive organ removal for sex with organs', it's about a guy who steals hammond organs from bands on stage ^^ What do you play? | ||

I totally just didn't get what the fuss was with the new album, I thought it was by far the worst peice of crap ever and all the MA reviews are giving it good scores and saying it's his most accessible album. I thought I just didn't get it. Oh yeah, and it hasn't been mentioned enough. DEMILICH! Old school finnish innovators. This band will turn the world upside down and slap you in the face. Also weird that Suffocation hasn't been mentioned itt. As far as technicality goes, the drumming is the main thing that's so amazing about this band. | ||

Arsis were mentioned, but they are melodeath, so I figured that's not what you're looking for. In fact, in the first few pages a few non-DM bands were thrown around… My tastes generally lean more toward the prog/tech (Behold…the Arctopus, Spastic Ink, etc.), but tech death is awesome. | ||

just to say i hate evile they r nice guys but their music is just slayer rip off through and through, at least the songs that I saw in a tv program. I thought to myself if i went to their gig and unplugged their gear, replaced it with a CD playing slayer, the audience wouldn't notice and probably neither would the band ¬¬. iNfuNdiBuLuM, yeah actually i have a bunch of that stuff already. I never really like Zappa actually, he's my one bugbear. I can't get it...neither can I get dream theatre. I always feel like he's missing something. to the person who said cynic + atheist, yes I have their discographies and i personally prefer atheist but they are both nothing like necrophagist imo. + Meshuggah...meh! There's too little melody imo. I like the rhythm work, being a drummer, thomas haake is good; but I find that well it's too much about the 'heavyness' and not about the melody which is what necrophagist is about. But loads of people have made awesome suggestions and im downloading shit now :D. thank you all! ps to that guy yeah i play drums and guitar | ||

That's their intention . They're trying to bring that back. Sure, they could be more original, but they want to sound like slayer. Apparently, there's an audience for it, seeing as how Slayer isn't as great anymore as it was. | ||

ARE YOU A MITHRAS FAN? Those tryouts must have been so brutal, apparently Sean Broster just completely blew everyone out of the water though. Sean formed another band with his brother called Sarpanitum. It's pretty good, based on Mesopotamian Mythology. | ||
