Theory In Practice

Sweden's Theory In Practice play an ambitious form of technical
death metal, a style not often attempted and even less frequently
done well, given the high degree of musicianship needed to pull
it off.
While not quite at the
Lethargy
level of mania, they slot nicely next to a band such as Canada's
Martyr, with
harsh death-ish vocals and riffing but with tempo changes aplenty
and top-notch musicianship from all involved.
Sometimes this form of metal can be unwieldy, with the complex
riff
changes awkwardly spliced together, but here the songs flow nicely,
the band is quite at home playing this style.
The first two albums are the most adventurous, with their more
recent
Colonizing The Sun toning down the complexity a notch,
while still retaining enough energy and riffage to please their
fan base.
