Archspire, a Vancouver-based tech-death band, has been making waves in the metal scene since their 2017 album “Relentless Mutation.” Their latest offering, “Bleed The Future,” showcases their signature dizzying technicality and knack for crafting complex riffs that remain catchy. The band’s guitar duo, Tom Morelli and Dean Lamb, lead the charge with their 8-string guitar assault, reminiscent of classic heavy metal solos but buried under a relentless barrage of blast beats and technical prowess.
The speed at which Archspire delivers on “Bleed The Future” is nothing short of astonishing. Tracks like the title song and “A.U.M” showcase vocalist Oli Peters’ rapid-fire delivery and drummer Spencer Prewett’s exceptional speed, solidifying his place as one of the fastest drummers in modern metal. Despite the breakneck pace, the band manages to inject dynamics and skillful musicianship into their compositions, setting them apart in the technical death metal landscape.
One standout track, “Drone Corpse Aviator,” exemplifies the band’s prowess, featuring intricate guitar work, explosive drumming, and a blend of aggressive vocals. Producer Dave Otero’s work on “Bleed The Future” ensures a balanced mix that highlights each instrument’s complexity without sacrificing clarity. The album’s overall cohesion and precision demonstrate Archspire’s maturity and growth as a band.
Hailing from Canada, a country known for producing top-tier tech-death acts, Archspire emerges as a leader in the genre, alongside bands like Cryptopsy and Gorguts. Their influence extends beyond their music, ushering in a new era of Canadian death metal that thrives in the underground scene. With platforms like Bandcamp fostering the growth of emerging acts, Archspire’s innovative approach and technical prowess set a high standard for the genre.
As Archspire continues to push boundaries and captivate audiences with their relentless energy and technical virtuosity, they solidify their position as torchbearers of modern tech-death metal. With “Bleed The Future,” the band delivers a masterclass in precision and intensity, leaving listeners craving more. Their impact on the metal landscape is undeniable, marking them as a force to be reckoned with in the ever-evolving realm of extreme music.
