i met them a few times at shows & festivals back in the mid-00's. a straightedge nerdo teen, i stupidly declined an invitation to get baked with them in their tour bus.

i've been thinking about this and while i don't have an encyclopedic sense of the subgenre, i feel like if it was stuck in a rut, probably arguable that Gorguts pulled it out, and the bands that have taken that sort of "extreme"/avant garde clip with it have done some interesting stuff — Ulcerate, Artificial Brain, Convulsing
mostly i am also looking for an excuse to gesture again toward that Ad Nauseam album i posted recently, which i have returned to a bunch of times in the week and change since

Demilich and Timeghoul are essential and I agree about Gorguts. Some more favs of mine which I consider canonical in the genre:
"Privilege of Evil" ONLY (Amorphis has not come close to this since):
As for continuity, this project (conceived by a friend and former bandmate!) is an amazing nod to Demilich and Timeghoul and will surely appeal to fans thereof:

i actually think that gorguts are probably responsible for the problems and excesses of the style, obscura is where most 'modern' tech death comes from i think. before that there were 'technical' bands that often sounded weird but they feel much more linked to prior death metal whereas most modern tech death seems to be terribly embarrassed of where it came from.
