these are the artists I love from this area too, though to me (perhaps because they have no singers) they fall more into the realm of Extreme Tech rather than Tech Death

I like this genre very much, and there are some totally awesome drummers, for example Flo Mournier! Also, what do you think people of CRYPTOPSY and KRISIUN? For me, they're awesome, but they may be annoying to a lot of people because they're extremely heavy!!

Usually vocals get to me in the death genres with the exception of Opeth and Devin Townsend's solo material (and that's kind of different) but Cynic's Focus is an interesting album...the vocoder simultaneously makes it cooler and cheesier at the same time, like a jazz death version of Herbie Hancock
and Behold...The Arctopus is all kinds of amazing

Indeed, some of these bands are fantastic. As with anything, i think a lot of them can get over-technical and get a little lost, but there are some real gems about.
Actually i'm just checking out a band called The Faceless, on myspace, who may fit in this thread. It's been a while since i've been impressed with any newly discovered Death Metal.

The Faceless is awesome,they definitely fit the prog/tech death mold.

I love progressive death,but people need to look beyond the standard Atheist,Death and Cynic recommendations and start investigating some killer newer bands in this amazing genre like:Ion Dissonance,Theory in Practice,Illogicist,Becoming the Archetype,Coprofago,Martyr,In-Quest,Anata,Psyopus,Gojira,,Sikth,Between the Buried and Me,Quo Vadis and Psycroptic,to name but a few.

  One of my recent finds. Not exactly tech death, but loved it anyway.

Ha, my threads keep getting moved and I forget about them. But on the topic:
Nile are pretty techy, especially on the new album, Ithyphallic. I wouldn't call them tech death, they're still straight-up DM, but they're definitely doing something interesting with it. Highly recommended.

I like Death.
Coroner is also good, unless they somehow do not fit the technical death category.

There is so much mindblowing music waiting to be found within the so-called "tech-death" genre! I've heard a lot of the bands mentioned, and many of them are incredibly good!
And I do believe Fredrik Thordendal's Special Defects deserve a mention in this thread, Sol Niger Within is a facemelting record! Along with Meshuggah, it's what made me decide to explore tech-death in the first place!
