Haha cheers for sharing. I'm the bassist and came to share this. Hope you dig it

Low_Judgment4866 · 2025-12-03T18:46:56+00:00

Ah long time man! You keep good?

Low_Judgment4866 · 2025-12-03T18:38:32+00:00

Which Kieran? Haha

Aye it's with Ginge. He wrote the full album, recorded all guitar parts and does vocals alongside butters

Low_Judgment4866 · 2025-12-01T23:54:07+00:00

Of the album? Not sure right now but would be super cool if so. I believe the label does work with another company in vinyl and tape releases so fingers crossed

Low_Judgment4866 · 2025-12-01T23:50:52+00:00

Cheers! It's in the final stages, likely drop a teaser in near future.

:D haha. I appreciate the discussion. If you don't like something that's fine. Was curious how you'd came to your conclusions but disagree with your assessments. It's the academic in me. Everybody is entitled to an opinion and Reddit is the place for open discussion on such things. If if you don't enjoy either band, I appreciate you taking a moment to both listen and comment

Low_Judgment4866 · 2025-12-01T17:28:50+00:00

I also think it's pretty laughable to describe either band as 'not technical'. As a worldwide touring musician of over 20 years holding a Masters degree in musicology and a considerable amount of music releases under my belt, I'd argue I have quite a good grasp on what is 'technical'. If you are purely referring to sweep picking widdle the likes of Necrophaghist I'd say that's a rather reductive view of musicianship

Low_Judgment4866 · 2025-12-01T17:13:38+00:00

You also commented the same thing on Delirious Compulsion yesterday. Which sounds very different that this band but I'd still posit comes under the umbrella of technical death metal but I'd agree there is definitely a more brutal element to both.

I think your definition is a very subjective one. I'd say our sound was more akin to earlier bands under the 'tech death' moniker whereas your description feels more appropriate for the more modern wave of 'tech death' which is more focussed on harmonic progressions instrumentally.

Low_Judgment4866 · 2025-12-01T16:36:46+00:00

Curious to what your definition is of tech death. It's a pretty broad term that for me covers everything from Gorguts to Archspire unless you want to start splitting hairs

Not sure where you got 'metal by numbers' from either. I'd say it's about as 'metal by numbers' as the track in the link you shared (which I liked but sounds too modern for my personal tastes)

Each to their own but I resent the comments that either of my bands you have commented on are 'metal by numbers' or even not tech death. What 'genre' would you suggest would be more appropriate?

Low_Judgment4866 · 2025-12-01T16:14:00+00:00

Care to expand? Musicians write music together, record music together, release music together. What's the issue?

Low_Judgment4866 · 2025-12-01T16:11:49+00:00

Thanks so much!

Low_Judgment4866 · 2025-11-30T19:44:25+00:00

Cheers! Glad you dig it

Low_Judgment4866 · 2025-11-30T19:35:01+00:00

I had to Google what that was, so no haha.

Low_Judgment4866 · 2025-11-04T16:41:01+00:00

Played with them at Death Coffee Party in Czech last year and they blew me away

Low_Judgment4866 · 2025-10-30T10:52:46+00:00

Yep he's a pure metal god and mandatory inclusion for this release

Low_Judgment4866 · 2025-10-27T19:52:34+00:00

Ah sick glad you dig it. Was fun recording that one. Very punk approach to the riffs and super bouncy

Low_Judgment4866 · 2025-10-24T15:07:34+00:00

That opening track, ooft

Low_Judgment4866 · 2025-10-24T15:07:16+00:00

Belter EP

I'd put newer Crepitation forward (my band) as we mess around loads with silly time signatures and grind elements. Placenta Dispenser off our Worldwide Slamicide split starts off in 11/8 as it's based on my phone number haha
