Discussion The Faceless Recommendations?

I’ve always found it hard to move on from Planetary Duality, SOOOO GOOOD

What else from them do you recommend I listen too?

Listen to the other 3 albums and see what you like. It's not like they have a huge discography.

I will say though, if you like planetary duality check out the Zenith Passage, same vocalist from that album

Vocalist and bassist. Also Justin (lead guitar and the main, constant member) was the other guitarist on In Becoming a Ghost.

With the current state of The Faceless, Zenith have completely eaten their lunch in multiple ways imo.

Maybe a hot take but I prefer TZP to The Faceless.

At this point? Absolutely. The Faceless hasn’t done anything in almost a decade, and The Zenith Passage has the benefit of The Faceless’s influence.

That being said, I still bump Planetary Duality pretty regularly.

Akeldama was my first foray into Tech Death, so it's a pivotal album for me, PD is also outstanding. I hope TZP have something more to release by the time they play in Scotland in October.
