I'll excuse you for missing this thread Kevin as you managed at least to catch the first page Stern Smile

I have no idea about tech stuff so I don't know what this means. I guess it's the same sound Colin was mentioning in his post.

Whenever I got examples of djent, the music was similar in style, so I assumed it's a style (with that kind of riffing as the main element).

well, to get that sound, you need, basically, EMG pickups, downtuned (or 7 or 8-string) guitars, and heavy palm-muting, which basically limits what your songs can sound like

Actually yeah, Intronaut has somewhat of a djenty tone in their latest, but stylistically it's not.

Yes Caio, groove is very important.  And Ron Jarzombek is pretty awesome, I'm friends with him on Facebook.

Animals as Leader f*cking rule, but you guys are all sick of me worshipping them so I'll just leave it at that.

And Colin's right, for djent you pretty much need 7 or 8 string guitars and EMGs or Blackout pups.

Obscura is more an technical / avant metal album, as are most, of not all of Gorgut's works. Not my favorite kind of music but interesting, nevertheless.

This.

Alex, listen to Meshuggah's "Closed Eye Visuals" is the best example I can give straight off the bat.  The guitars make a very noticeable "djun DJEN djun djun DJENT djun djun DJENT" kind of noise.  That guitar tone is djent, and that word itself is just onomatopoeia for that signature sound.  That's the thing all djent bands share in common.
