A community for the technical death metal subgenre. Share and discuss music that melts your face!

Rules:

Don't be a dick.
Try not to get too bogged down in genre-gatekeeping. Discussing the "tech" credentials of some release/band is fun, but as long as it's oozing viscera, it probably has a place here. Shredbang!
Suggested (not enforced) music-posting format, mostly to distinguish band name from album/song title:
Artist - Album Or Song (Location, Year) (ffo: These Bands) (links)
ffo ("for fans of") and added links (e.g. YouTube, Spotify, Bandcamp, Encyclopaedia Metallum) are optional but can make it easier to check out the music you're sharing.

Examples:

Carnosus - Fermenting Blastospheres of Future Putridity (Sweden, 2023)
Job For A Cowboy - Sun Eater (USA-AZ, 2014) (ffo: All Shall Perish, Wretched) (yt, s, bc, em)

I don’t know about you all, but I am absolutely drunk on quality 2023 metal releases (or maybe that’s the whiskey). I’ll be doing a poll after nominations are in. I’ve already made my own personal rankings, and there were so many solid albums, I’ve written 4 lists: Big Bands (>2000 listeners on Spotify), Secret Killers (<2000: this one will need to be double-length because many tech death bands fall below this threshold), EPs, and Off-Genre (I expect most of us listen to other metal genres, and some releases deserve the spotlight even if they don’t quiiiite fit into tech death). If anyone is interested, I can also post an “Honorable Mentions” list: I tend to be a completist myself, so I know I appreciate any opportunity to find anything that escaped my notice throughout the year.

With no further ado, please comment your AOTY 2023 nominations. Any band that is added will go into the poll. Repeats are totally ok, and please feel free to upvote any favorites that others mention, but only the poll will determine the community AOTY list. Suggested format for clarity: {Band} - {Album}.

Edit: nominations will be open through the end of next weekend, so end of Sunday Jan 14

Let’s keep this going, I’m hoping to have enough submissions to do a proper poll.
