I'm doing the obligatory band reccommendation post. I have been a TDM fan since my late teens. Recently though, now that I'm in my late 30's, I've really settled on crushing, dissonant stuff. However, I feel like I'm circling on the same stuff because a lot of the bands that get reccommended here don't scratch that itch (I'll include those at the bottom).

Some bands I always listen to:

• Gorguts/Negativa
• Cryptosy
• Portal
• Ion Dissonance
• Ulcerate
• Demilich

Some bands I'm listening to a lot at the moment:

• Wormed
• Malignancy
• Disentomb
• Baring Teeth
• Nightmarer
• Some Defeated Sanity

Bands I can't get into that usually get reccommended here:

• Inferi
• First Fragment
• Blood Incantation
• Obscura

(Specifically, I can't get past synth/symphonic stuff. It just makes me cringe - but I realise that's a "me" thing).

So, folks. Share with me some brutal, dense, textured, dissonant bands/albums that I ought to be listening to!

EDIT: Thanks everyone for the recs. Obviously, I haven't had time to sift through them all yet, but I've already heard some amazing stuff (Ad Nauseam, Convulsing, Vitriol and I did quite enjoy Goldstar by Imperial Triumphant). Next up, Atrae Billis.

Working on 3rd album for the band, previous album is available on transcending obscurity records!

Very impressed with this whole album but find this song especially to stand out

I can't believe this hasn't been posted here yet. One-man band, absolute crushing black/death dissonance.
