But remember how I said "some" nicely written riffs? Many of the riffs are painfully boring as well

I gave Onset of Putrefaction a 5/5 so that probably says a lot. Then again, I also gave Pleasure to Kill a 5 so the overall situation's a bit interesting

eh depends, a lot of modern tech death bands are just constantly full throttle necrophagist type bullshit but dudes like atheist and later death realised the importance of dynamics and used technicality to push the genre even further

Atheist is a very rare case. How many tech bands are able to pull it off the way they did? I cant remember hearing anything else that combined tech and raw elements so well

This is one of the first death metal albums, so I equate it with some of the first black metal albums: shitty production with stripped down genre basics to set the style down for future bands (and themselves) to expand on

cryptopsy perfected that style i think, they mesh raw brutality and horror with technical prowess so fucking well
or they did anyway. none so vile ftw.i still like atheist and later era death, but when it comes to technically impressive dm none so vile is the best there ever was

But Bathory pioneered black metal so much better than how this pioneered death metal

why not human? its not as intense as UP for example but i think they hit the perfect mix of complex rhythms/time sigs and all that bollocks while still retaining some of the rawness of their earlier albums. TSoP is where they went too far in one direction
