- Benighted - Ekbom (France) (brutal tech)
- Griefgod - Deterioration (Lithuania) (first Lithuanian band I’ve run across!)
- The Night We Died - The Price of Playing God [EP] (USA-WA)
- Replicant - Infinite Mortality (USA-NJ)
ooh I’m digging the Griefgod. That album art too!
Hell yeah, glad you agree. Let me know if you have any similar bands to recommend, I’m on a kick. So far I’ve got Eye of Horus (latest album anyway, Noxium), Fallen Utopia, and sort of Aviscerus, Scent of Death, and Ignominious Incarceration.
I don’t have similar bands to recommend… Before popping in here, my main techdeath fixes were the usual stuff (Faceless, Zenith Passage, Fallujah, Revocation)… Inferi is another recent discovery. also, Job for a Cowboy. My usual cup of tea is more black stuff I’d say. The new Underdark is really something. At this very moment I’m listening to the new Agriculture single.
I’ll check out the ones you listed today, thanks!
Ok awesome. Well welcome to the community! Feel free to post whatever you like, I’m pretty liberal with genre bounds, so a little black/prog/melodic/core creeps in a lot of the time. My main focus is music discovery, including for myself, so I’ll definitely check out Underdark and Agriculture, those are not names I’ve heard. JFAC has been a favorite forever, so I’ll talk about them all day long lol
haha nice! ok sounds good! :)
just curious, which JFAC do you like better, the new one or Sun Eater? (my friend likes Sun Eater, I like Moon Healer… I mean, I like both! but slight edge to the new one)
Ugh that’s really tough, they’re both solid. I agree about the slight edge to Moon Healer. It’s just hard to set aside how big a stylistic change Sun Water had been from previous releases, how much Jonny’s vocal range had expanded, etc. Felt really fresh at the time. But goddamn, Agony Seeping Storm…
People seem to be all about the new Replicant, but I gotta say Griefgod and The Night We Died are really giving me life today!
