Techie metalcore/tech metal. All over the damn place with crazy guitar riffs, time changes, other complexities and tricks. The dissonance and polyrhythms never let up. Just how rhythmically complex this stuff is, is near mind numbing. They end up sounding chaotic (in a good way). Oh, let’s not forget it’s also heavy, angry, and has that pissed off nihilistic side of metal covered. Think Meshuggah and Dillinger Escape Plan.
Most track end up sounding the same. Try *1*, *3*, 4, 5, 6, 7 (very Meshuggah-like), or 9 (slow, heavy, not complex at the end)
Good stuff. -mph
