The weird Progressive/Funk/Metal/Experimental band Short Attention Span Theatre bring a much needed and fresh sound to our local Western New York music scene. Music is watered down these days, and it’s cool to see weirder and more artistic bands slowly come out of the woodworks. These cats draw heavy influence […]
Habitual Depravity released this banger of an album a few weeks ago on December 30th. It’s a brutal technical death metal project between guitarist/bassist/vocalist Jonathon Urwin and legendary drummer Marco Pitruzzella. If I knew of this project a while ago, I would have added it to my wild 2018 list. […]
The Ritual Aura has some weird stuff planned out where…..they want to play a……game? No it’s not jigsaw, where your limbs will get hacked and thrown into a vat of acid but it’s a more normal game. As posted above, the band is planning to release “Velothi” sooner than […]
I have been talking up some bands from the Indonesian parts of the world, and another solid undiscovered tech death gem from around the world Berantai is oh so good. I have recently made friends with a record label from the country, and am impressed with the bands they’re building up on […]
The first featured band for 2019 is the ever so awesome Fractal Universe! The French group caught my ears when I heard “Sons of Ignorance” off their full length “Engram Of Decline” and I’ve been hooked ever since. This hard working independent prog/tech death band was also just […]

Dischord is a pretty wild death metal band from Canada who blends a wealth of subgenres into the mold that is themselves. There’s some prog moments, and even a little technicality here and there for good flavor. For Death freaks like me into “The Sound of Perseverance” era, […]
India’s Tech Death group Nihilus has recently released “Splitting Atoms” from their upcoming album “Borealis”. It’s pretty sweet to see different parts of the world and their take on technical death metal. Nihilus is no exception to the technical scene as they show true virtuosity everywhere, especially with […]
Australian tech blasters Blade Of Horus released a wild album today through Lacerated Enemy Records. Clocking in just under a half hour of skull crushing and a note cramming frenzy Blade Of Horus delivers yet again but on even more wild and obscene level. The guys added a […]
Freshly signed Ash Prison is debuting their song “Prophetic Automation” on TMR right here right now! The guys recently partnered up with Eastbreath Records out of Indonesia to bring some wildly complex and artistic technical death metal to us earthlings! Remember me foaming at the mouth about some bands […]
