Technical death metal (also referred to as simply tech-death) is a musical subgenre of death metal that began and developed in the early- to mid-1990s, with particular focus on challenging, demanding instrumental skill and complex songwriting.



History


Technical experimentation in death metal began in the late 1980s and early 1990s by bands such as Death, Atrocity, Atheist and Cynic.[2]


Some of the distinct features of this genre include dynamic song structures, complex and atypical rhythmic structures, abundant use of diminished chords and arpeggios, frequent employment of odd time chord progressions and constant use of string skipping on the guitars. Bass lines are usually complex and the drums are extremely fast-paced with abundant use of blast-beats and other extreme drumming techniques.


One of the key works that cemented this subgenre was Atheist's debut album Piece of Time, released in 1989, which took death metal into a more intricate level while incorporating influences ranging from jazz fusion to progressive metal. In 1991, New York's grindcore-influenced Suffocation released their debut album Effigy of the Forgotten, which focused on pairing speed and brutality with a "sophisticated" sense of songwriting. Atheist's second album, Unquestionable Presence, Pestilence's third album, Testimony of the Ancients; and Death's fourth album, Human, were all released that very same year. Human and later Death albums have proven especially influential on later 1990s technical death metal bands.[2]
