#avant-garde death metal

Effluence - Psychocephalic Spawning This is one of the most interesting Avant-Garde Metal Albums I have ever heard. For one this record is incredibly fucking brutal. So many Avant-Garde metal albums seems to take the route of "What if Metal but not brutal??" And i hate it. I love experimentation and obviously I respect anyone's artistic vision if it is what excites them and motivates them to make art. Art doesn't have to be violent or brutal to be good, but let's be real. There is a reason we are the kinds of people who are attracted to this shit and it isn't always because we enjoy complex guitar playing. There is a certain importance to the aesthetic. The vibe. And this album has it in spades. SO First Off, the mother fucking vocals. I don't know how people make this insect sounding guttural growl that sounds like an insane clicking almost Marimba or Xylophone like sound to it but mixed with a mutant. I have no idea but it is one of my favorite styles of metal vocals simply because it sounds fucking inhuman and insane. I want to learn about this, so can someone please teach me how to do it???? On top of that the guitar playing is just... fucking insane. Impossibly fast, complex. Perfectly technically executed. Perfectly mastered. Just fucking amazing how well they integrated these guitars into all the other instruments. And I do mean all the other instruments. On top of some amazing drum playing, and some bass playing that is just as impressive and insane as the guitar playing, to my ear, there is a saxophone, flute, some kind of xylophone like instrument, synths, samples, Harsh noise samples, and all sorts of stuff. If you ever need proof that flute playing can be brutal as fuck please just listen to the sound Devouring Gray Matter, because it will convince you the instant you hear the flute start to pop off. Essentially, this is one of, if not the most innovative death metal album I've heard, and I can't wait to hear what this band is going to do next. Fucking absolute freaks. I love it.

Ritual Suicide Japan Cassette release of their 1998 "To Nothing" Demo Death metal that is quite experimental, with a lot of acoustics intertwined in the riffs. This was the band's only release, and a rarity nonetheless.

Gorguts - Considered Dead

Here's the first Album from Death Metal Legends GORGUTS! Absolutely an amazing band, and this album shows the start of what would eventually become their signature avant-garde dissonant sound. To me, what makes Gorguts special is just how out there they get in the construction of their riffs. Especially the way in which the guitars incorporate atonal or literally tonally dissonant. On this record you can really start hearing their progression from what sounds to be a more classic sounding tech death metal to what to me is the greatest death metal album of all time, Obscura. Which is dissonate as fuuuck. FUcking love that record, and I absolutely love this one as well.
