Not all technical metal is technical death metal.

You asked about technical metal, which I assumed meant "any metal I consider to be somewhat technical" rather than "technical death metal", which I take it is what you actually meant, simple mix up.

The reason I said tech death is because from your list the only bands that are technical anything were tech death. Still willing to give it a shot?

I don't know if that is unpopular, as I agree entirely.

Even more so, I think that musicians themselves don't appreciate the beauty of sparse texture as much as they should. Guitarists in particular. If you only need one note, why use more?

There should be some kind of licence (free of course) you have to obtain before you are allowed to play live in a band. In this license you should be tested on your ability to follow and reproduce pitches and rhythms on your chosen instrument. Nobody who fails this test should ever, ever be allowed to play in a band in front of other people who have to listen to it.

Jesus, don't lecture me because you have a different concept of what technical skill is.

Well, if anybody in the future complains that you've calibrated your musical genre boundaries incorrectly, then you can easily comfort yourself with the knowledge that your life hasn't degenerated such that you really care about those genres boundaries. Genres are for music shops!

I hate arguing over music genres, and yet in a striking sense of irony, it's really the only thing I ever argue about on this forum.

Once someone lures me in, I can't help but take the bait.

Hmm, then next time I suggest throwing in the phrases "groan metal", "transition metal" and "technique metal" to see if you can catch them off guard*.


*These might already be metal genres, who cares!

(also, chav metal, eyebrow metal, homeless metal, diseased metal, anaphlactic metal, metal metal, life metal, birth metal, prebirth metal, adolescent metal, geriatric metal, historic metal, andalucian metal and, well, the list could be nigh on endless)
