Many accuse Beneath The Massacre for being just another "br00tal tech wank" band, but I beg to differ. Altough you can definitely hear a lot of hyperspeed blasts, flashy sweep picked riffs, seemingly random stop-start rhythms (and there's a lot of them) and even a minimal amount of hardcore influence, but the thing I found captivating about BTM's music is that it's very machine-like. Almost similar to industrial in an awkward way, even though there are no fancy special effects. The instruments are pushed to their limits yet they are in perfect harmony; everything is played extremely fast with breathtaking skill, and every note is placed precisely where it has to be, plunged into a rigid death metal sound.
