So I've reviewed albums from technical death metal bands like Atheist, Death, and Pestilence, but what about the one band that's obviously not tech-death but would inspire those bands and many more to mix tech-death with pieces of progressive jazz? Watchtower is that perfect spark of influence, including this 8-minute epic:

I've always enjoyed Watchtower. Their debut album "Energetic Disassembly" was let down a bit by a poor production but was interesting enough, despite not being particularly thrashy. They definitely picked it up a bit after that though & "Control & Resistance" was a stronger effort. I agree that it was likely an influence on the early tech death scene.

A beautifully crafted & highly atmospheric post-rock piece from these Swedish post-sludge metallers.

A solid mix of funk, djent, and progressive rock, cooked up by this amazing Australian prog-metal guitarist:

One of the more metal focused tracks from Sydney-based guitar virtuoso Plini's 2016 debut album "Handmade Cities".

Deconstruction is what I think is the true start of the 4-part metal saga of the Devin Townsend Project (the other 3 parts being Epicloud, Z², and Transcendence), spawning brilliant (often humorous) masterpieces like this 16-minute epic with a strange title:

Still not forgetting this strange yet brilliant epic!

Once again the least popular track on an album appeals to me the most. Avant-garde progressive metal from Canada.

Once again the least popular track on an album appeals to me the most. Avant-garde progressive metal from Canada.

A stomping highlight reminding me of the pandemic we were all stuck in. I like the operatic vocals by Floor Jansen (ex-After Forever, Nightwish), though barely working here.

Loving this beast of a post-sludge B-side from Converge's "I Can Tell You About Pain" single from 2017. Why in the actual fuck wasn't this track on the "The Dusk in Us" album??

Neo-classical-influenced progressive metalcore, kinda like a mix of Avenged Sevenfold, Protest the Hero, and Symphony X:

Part of an energetic mind-blowing beginning for thrashy technical progressive metal:

After finding a recent comment for one of my videos, talking about a Ne Obliviscaris song giving the commenter Caligula's Horse vibes, I remembered a review I've made for one of the Caligula's Horse albums as part of The Infinite Progressive Metal Modern Era clan challenge nearly 3 years ago and decided to check out one of its highlights. This is a song for anyone who's into progressive rock/metal, and I might just find a bit of melodic light from this band that I want more of, while focusing on more extreme bands.

A couple grand highlights from an album that made me remember the more melodic progressive fan I used to be:

Epic progressive/symphonic black metal to please the extreme progressive metal masses:

A monster of an epic Canadian progressive metal piece featuring truck loads of spacey Syd Barrett era Pink Floyd psychedelia.

Wild fantastic progressive metal/mathcore that should appeal to fans of The Dillinger Escape Plan, Protest the Hero, and early 2000s Between the Buried and Me:

A wonderful progressive metal outing with stunning vocal hooks & sophisticated riffage.

An amazing highlight of oriental extreme progressive metal from Japan:
