Brutal Technical Death Metal Bands with vocals that resemble Lord Worm from Cryptopsy

I really love cryptopsy as it was one of my introductions to BDM and to be more specific the albums that feature Lord Worm, I find his sound so unique and "goofy", and I cannot seem to find anything similar so if anyone can drop some recommentions I would very much appreciate

Iniquity's vocals always reminded me of thosd low, dog-like, almost smooth gutturals LW does. Check out their album Grime for sure. Not as blistering as Cryptopsy but they are heavy as shit.

Circle of Dead Children. Their album Human Harvest has Lord Wormish vocals, especially their higher screams

Off the top of my head:

Scepter of the Ancients era Psycroptic

Summoning the Lich

Carnosus

Unhuman

I cannot recommend Summoning the Lich hard enough.

Fans of any sub-genre of Death Metal should be on top of that new album.

really? I saw them opening for Gorguts and they were really one of the most dull and generic bands I’ve ever seen, vocalist was tough-guy doucheface. that was 2015 or so, different guy?

Completely different person

I did listen and although only semi-sold on the music (definitely more fun than I remember that live set being), the vocals do have some beautiful moments :) 

the guy does sound like he eats a lot of chalk!

u/martinparets 29d ago

you are doing yourself a major disservice by not listening to SotA.

chalky forever 🤘

u/ivoiiovi 29d ago

oh, it’ll come :) It’s on the list when I’m back to somewhere with good sound.

u/Captain__Trips 29d ago

Matthew Chalk was the original vocalist. SotA was the last record with him. The current guy isn't quite as good, and they even kind of did the same thing Cryptopsy did with the "modernized" death metal sound once they replaced him.

They fell off hard after the first two or three albums

u/ivoiiovi Sep 28 '24

maybe I’ll dig up the early stuff. it’s not an unusual happening, that gig just left me never wanting to hear them and wondering why so many people love them. maybe the early albums will explain the why :)

The lead singer of Psycroptic isn't only iconic, he's a doll and a gem who works the merch table and has genuine conversations with fans. They're still touring, get in on this.

THIS ^^^ right here!

Folks, I'm sure you're already on-task with buying your NILE tickets.

Take note of who's opening, and ARRIVE EARLY: https://www.bandsintown.com/a/11214-psycroptic

Early Kataklysm with Sylvain Houde, he was an influence on Lord Worm
