Ion Dissonance

Tech/Extreme Prog Metal

Ion Dissonance is another one of those technical, relentless metal/core bands. Like the rest of them, these guys can play, but they can't write. I can't get past one of these songs without the desire to switch records. It's obnoxious, tiresome music. There is not one riff, phrase, vocal line (it's a bunch of yelling as is typical of the genre's lower tier) that sticks with me. I love pedantic music; I can even love heavy music. This however is not something I can get into, and I don't see how many other people can enjoy this. The technicality is the only aspect that gets any consideration in their writing. That is not nearly enough to make a good record. For the time being, I'll give it two stars, because it is better than most standard metal and hardcore acts.

Bruuuuuutal band. Not necessarily what most would consider prog. But regardless they play a very technical style of math/grind with heavy metalcore mixed in. If you appreciate extreme metal then at least give this a shot. For fans of Dillinger Escape Plan.
