Rhythmically complex metal
Alright, first of all, I consider myself a pretty big tech-metalhead. Big fan of most things technical. Anyways, I've recently gotten into stuff that focuses on more rythmically technical (i.e. Coprofago, Obsidian, Meshuggah). Anyone have any recommendations for music of the like?

"Theory in Practice" is right up your alley. They're quite the Technical Death MetaL band, although the vocals aren't very good. Get 'Third Eye Function' & 'Colonizing the Sun'.
"Spiral Architect" is an amazing band. You should check out their album 'A Skeptic's Universe'.
"The Faceless" is good shit too.

All great bands I already know of. Thanks though.
They're not what I'm really looking for though. I'm not exactly looking for music that shreds. Moreso, music with off-beat rhythms like Meshuggah. The kind that is decptively complex if that makes any sense to anyone... Another example would be Isis. |

Maudlin of the Well "Bath"
True Avant-Garde Metal. I just started listening to them the other day. Be forewarned that they're not solid metal though, but rather go from being the most serene & calm band you've ever heard to being the most ugly. Check it out. Might not be Meshuggah, but is something different you will probably like.

Does it have to be heavy? If not, some prog metal would probably work nice. Symphony X for example.

Symphony X pwn all. The Odyssey is one of the greatest songs ever. It's not what he's looking for though.

2 major faults, The vocals are killer!!! And while TEF and CTS are damn good records,i suggest you get The Armageddon Theories which is their absolute masterpiece

Isn't "The Armageddon Theories" considered to be their best?? Funny, because I didn't like that one as much as the other two, but it has it's moments. Also, the vocals on the first two weren't that great I thought, but they cleaned them up on "Colonizing the Sun" IMO.
