2018 year of prog/tech death metal albums: "Liquid Anatomy", "Diluvium", "Algorythm", "Illusive Golden Age", "The Outer Ones", "Revenant", "Where Owls Know My Name" and the upcomings "Aethra" and "As the Kingdom Drowns" (sorry if I forgot to include an album, I don't have enough time hahaha)
Cast to Exile by Enblood, Immersion by Irreversible Mechanism, Idol by Horrendous, As The Kingdom Drowns by Psycroptic, upcoming Ritual Aura that's been pushed to 2019 :( and Terrorvision by Aborted (quite technical tbh) are albums I'd throw in there as well :)
Saw these guys live a couple weekends ago, one of the best bands i’ve ever seen. And to top it off, the played with Inferi, Obscura, EXIST, and Archspire, one of the beat concerts I’ve ever been to
I kind of like being teased with a TH-cam release before the actual band camp and store releases. Season of Mist, you beautiful bastards. Once again a perfect album.
I thought Beyond Creation was headed down the path of so many tech death bands, which is to become more and more bland and uninspired as time goes on. This record is a complete divergence from that path and the most musical / inspired they have ever sounded. Album of the year, for me.
it was just a generalization and not talking about the best released of the year. Man i give up trying to determine my album of the year, way too much albums.
best year for metal in my opinion. although the worst for school for me but i think metal is more important. i got to see a lot of good bands this year. it was all beautiful. and to end it all Behemoth is going to play on my birthday. the best birthday surprise ever. HAIL SATAN! lol
Everytimes I listen to this album I m completely amazed by the quality of the sound and particularly the punch of the drums through the mix ! This shit is next level
Simply Incredible..!! Man 2018 has been so Great....such great releases ! Beyond Creation - Algorythm Revocation - The Outer Ones Aborted - Terrorvision
Cet album est un chef d'oeuvres, j'ai peur que rares soient ceux qui entendent la finesse de composition. Quoi qu'il en soit, j'espère que ce groupe aura vite le rayonnement qu'il mérite.
Moi je l'entends!!!! J'ai cliqué au pif sur Omnipresent Perseption, et j'ai acheté 2 albums. Maintenant beaucoup de musiques me paraissent fades! Merci a ce groupe de génies :) Espérant d'autres albums/
Je viens tout juste de découvrir ce groupe, en même temps que le groupe Obscura, et je n'en crois pas mes oreilles ! Et que dire de l'utilisation de la basse fretless, c'est tout simplement succulent !
The outro of surfaces echoes sounds like the lead guitar and bass are sharing duel leads in harmony with each other...which if true is something I've never much witnessed before...and is amazingly stellar!
Excellent album overall, they stayed close to their style while still experimenting in some areas. I especially like the two instrumental songs at the end, I've always had a thing for instrumentals. 9/10 🤘
If there’s a word to describe the entire album, in his complexity, I think that word is “phenomenal”. You guys are fucking phenomenal, your culture music is really big and it contains everything. Classic music, techniques, speed, melodies, feelings and emotions, thoughts, ideas, love for Mother Earth. My mind is blowing away listening to this new masterpiece. Boucher did some pretty awesome work at drum with multiple styles, Hugo (I’m sorry, again, you are the best bassist I’ve ever heard) you excited me like nothing can excite me. Kevin and Simon, I have no words for you. The ability to tap everywhere on the guitar, maintaining the perfect sound and tonality, destructs my mind. This album is perfect. The orchestral line in the first track, the clean guitar parts, growl and scream that transfer to me the love for this music. I repeat, this album is perfect. In his complexity, is PHENOMENAL. Thank you, keep writing, keep composing, keep doing great music. Metal music needs you.
@@ikon4255 eh, even if he is the gap is not large. I don't know how much more the man needs to prove himself, the bass on this album was definitely up to the expected standards. Just wish they would make playthrough videos, those are great for picking up on some of the subtler details
Not a fan of this genre, but this band is something else... Fantastic! Words can't describe the amazing job this band has done. I think this is their best album, no doubt.
instant fan since the first time I heard The Departed off of The Aura, and they have done nothing but enrich my life since. Earthborn Evolution actually dropped on my birthday the year it came out. This band continues to be my favorite. if you boys in Beyond Creation ever read this, I love you. lol cheers
It's out. And it's beautiful. Thank you for writing this masterpiece guys, it has so many different layers and hidden levels it makes me feels all sorts of emotions!
I love how this album is not going super fast and the progression on this album compare to the other two is insane plus Hugo on bass is the cherry on top their best work to date. Go Beyond Creation go😍🔥🍻🤘😎🤘😀❤😘😊🎸🎹🇨🇦much love from fellow Canadian -Ainalik Okpik Dupuis
This is one of thoses bands that don't only deserve love, they deserve trust. Every single one of their release is absolutely mind blowing, and I totally expected this one to be as well. Also, huge props to Hugo. He had a fucking huge pair of shoes to fit in, and he did flawlessly.
Everything I wanted and more. These dudes are fucking killing the tech game right now. Easily my favorite band atm. Was a great experience seeing them tear it up in Dallas last Thursday w/ Inferi, Obscura and Archspire too!
After listening to Beyond Creation and Black Crown Initiate for the first time, almost every single band I used to like wasn't interesting to me anymore. These guys are the definition of perfection!
best tech death bands originate from Quebec somewhere, beneath the massacre, neuraxis, cryptopsy, despised icon, depths of hatred and so many more.... i believe maybe gojira as well? and thats not counting the rest of canada lol
You do realize that there are no trumpets involved, right? What might sound like a trumpet is in fact an amazing bass sound. even more pronounced - and really awesome - in many Obscura Songs, by the way. Should check them out
@@profchaos79 i would refer you to the brass section in the first minute of the album. it's a lot of things, but it's certainly not the fucking bass tone.
I meant the intro track with all the orchestral sounds, I know what fretless bass sounds like ;) and I saw Obscura playing with BC in London, great gig
I cannot wait to see these guys live and while at work this is one of my dribing forces, Linux and Technical Death Metal is a killer combo, I am more efficient in my whole life because of music like this... Hail Metal forever!!!

Ahhh those Gary Moore-ish guitar parts at 23:00-24:00 ... Also Hugo is really close to Forest's style and ability (what a challenge to even approach Dominic's skill level!) but I think puts more feeling into the whole thing , it melts my brain , my heart , my ass , my testicles .. everything .
For the first time since August 30, 2020, I'm about to listen to "Algorythm". EDIT- 2:16 P.M.: *finishes album 1 hour and 10 minutes later* I'm glad that I did. This album made the trip to Richmond Hill easier to endure! 😄
Amazing! Really satisfied with the production quality. And to think Gorod's new album is also dropping in only a few days after so many good tech death and prog releases this year... we're really getting spoiled, aren't we?
These guys are seriously talented and actually have some seriously well thought out and just uncommonly brilliant lyrics. These guys, archspire, and decrepit birth are doing some cutting edge shit. 20 out of 10 on scale of 1 to 10
Bought the CD impusilvely last week and have been listening to it a lot since then. Had listen to couple songs here on you tube before and was feeling kind of indifferent to it (don't know why). Anyway, glad I bought the album because it has grown on me.
I can't believe the tech deth community doesn't like this album. Its so jazzy with super deep feels. I thought this was their best album yet for sure. So esoteric. I love it
You said it yourself, it's the Jazz element. I still like this album a lot, and think it's very well put together, but if you're talking strictly tech death than its only natural that this album won't fully scratch that itch.
Hell, I'm at work and they release this. Co-workers are getting some culture.
same
And call the police
They'll learn to CoExist with you soon enough
there can never be enough death metal \m/
my friend what sort of cultures are they eating? I hope they got you some too
This album is so good it makes me want to eject my USB unsafely.

Buy CD
@Cepy 13Death
I already did. This is my fifth overall listen. This album is so fuckin good man
Livin life on the edge, man.
we need a new album from this master band!!!!
2018 year of prog/tech death metal albums: "Liquid Anatomy", "Diluvium", "Algorythm", "Illusive Golden Age", "The Outer Ones", "Revenant", "Where Owls Know My Name" and the upcomings "Aethra" and "As the Kingdom Drowns" (sorry if I forgot to include an album, I don't have enough time hahaha)
Finna just throw out Esoteric Malacology by Slugdge. It iz epic
Cast to Exile by Enblood, Immersion by Irreversible Mechanism, Idol by Horrendous, As The Kingdom Drowns by Psycroptic, upcoming Ritual Aura that's been pushed to 2019 :( and Terrorvision by Aborted (quite technical tbh) are albums I'd throw in there as well :)
You forgot Aepoch - Awakening Inception ;) You should have a listen. Enjoy !
Immersion by Irreversible Mechanism
Allan Pv Don't forget Aethereus and Soreption
Saw these guys live a couple weekends ago, one of the best bands i’ve ever seen. And to top it off, the played with Inferi, Obscura, EXIST, and Archspire, one of the beat concerts I’ve ever been to
i would masturbate the entire concert with this lineup
I saw them in Oakland and Archspire absolutely killed it!
I saw them in Worcester on Oct 25
*Saw them in Brooklyn on that same tour.*
@@eastwaters4082 The show was great, I met these guys, The members of Exist and Linus, great guys
There is so much jazz on this album. I love that! Genius musicians 🖤
When do we get new music. I could really use a new beyond creation album right about now.
I kind of like being teased with a TH-cam release before the actual band camp and store releases.
Season of Mist, you beautiful bastards. Once again a perfect album.
They told me not to say this but I did anyway. I effin love this band. Beyond Creation is the best band ever. Period.
best scene from the tenacious d movie
That an archspire and black crown initiate all three are just amazing
You ain't wrong Eli.
Stick around if you dont mind some cream in your jeans 👖
Wow Surface's Echoes Instrumental is amazing
I thought Beyond Creation was headed down the path of so many tech death bands, which is to become more and more bland and uninspired as time goes on. This record is a complete divergence from that path and the most musical / inspired they have ever sounded. Album of the year, for me.
I actually shed tears listening to Binomial Structures.
This is not an ordinary album, this is an experience!
Bass sound is so original, weird and special...keep the great work.
Amazing fretless bass playing - and you can actually hear it! Yes!
Hell's yea! It stands out yet feels so Canadian 😎. Canadian Tech RULES!!!
@@Scottehicks no wonder it always reminded me of the bass in Death - The Philosopher. always that twangy fart sound, but in a good way
This is a masterpiece. This is why Beyond Creation is the best metal band of this era. 🙌🏿 Keep slaying boys. 🙏🏿
To many good bands from the last decade, this dudes are by far, one of the best.
lets not forget obscura and archspire. But Beyond creation is still the best
@@theawesomeanarchist5053 dont forget First Fragment and Allegaeon
@@lashedandscorned Yes. We can't forget them.
@@theawesomeanarchist5053 and Ne Obliviscaris shall not be forgotten
Can't believe it is finally out
FINALLY
Augury and Beyond Creation in the same year! No one can match MTL tech death.

My only but perfect birthday present, thank you so much Beyond Creation!
thanks buddy
Happy birthday dude.
ty :))
Happy birthday! Hopefully listening to this masterpiece wasn't the only good part of it...
kinda, but it compensates a lot, good music enriches life a lot!
Beyond Creation is one of the few bands in technical death metal, for which music is more important than mathematics.Well done.
They put math in lyrics (Algorythm, Binomial Structures)
I believe he meant "they do math music without forgetting music (melodies, harmonies, rhythm, etc)"
Gabrol, thank you, that's exactly what I meant.
oBSCUUUUUUUUUUUUUURA Too
BRETT WHITE Anata the band? They kick ass
That intro is heavy. Medieval heavy. Like, plate armor heavy. Gnarly.
And thus Beyond Creation is now my all time Progressive/Technical Death Metal band.
Try Dissonance in Design, insane band.
Finally listening to the Album of the Year!
Liquid Anatomy?
Not a fan of this genre, but this band is something else...
Fantastic! Words can't describe the amazing job this band has done.
I think this is their best album, no doubt.
I haven´t heard it yet, but I already know this is gonna be a masterpiece. Beyond Creation!

Always hits differently.
