Favorite/Notable Modern DM Pt. 5

| 1 |  | Decryptal
Simulacre
Ripping OSDM with some wonky riffs and deep production. |
| 2 |  | Deliquesce
Saviour / Enslaver
I believe this group is present on a previous DM list, but their new album is more than worthy of mention. Chaotic, brutal, and with plenty of that jazz-infused drumming that Wormed and Defeated Sanity are known for. |

The Bastard
Kinda has that old-school melodeath sound going on, and I really dig it. |

Consists of three very atmospheric, very long, very epic prog/techdeath tracks, great for those who like to take a real journey with an album. |

Fatally Misguided
Off-kilter, varied OSDM with a ton of technical riffs. |
| 6 |  | Obscene Worship
Ordained to Infernal Depths
Frantic, evil, furious death metal. Rough but inoffensive production. |

Cast to Exile
Extremely solid melodic techdeath. |
| 39 |  | Jade (ESP)
Mysteries of a Flowery Dream
Pretty much just atmospheric/melodic black metal with deep death metal vocals, but there's enough death metal influence to include it. |
| 40 |  | Infibulated
Diabolical Euphoric Subjugation
Extremely chaotic/brutal/sickening brutal DM with gross vocals and that wicked snare we all love so much. |

Altar of Brutality
Ripping OSDM; some nice fast-paced stuff along with some cool chugging riffs. |
