Here at the end of all things, it’s a good moment to look back at what has come out in 2020. As I've stated every year for this year-end item, we all have our own tastes, so there's no reason to list things I didn't love or had mixed feelings about. The main focus, as it is every year, is to show you more killer things that you possibly didn't know about. In the hopes that you find a few new things and then share them with others in your circle. With a secondary aim of boosting releases that seemed to go underappreciated in the hopes that they get another dose of recognition. I've created a Spotify playlist with a song a piece from my favorite 2020 tech-death releases which you can check out here.
Without further ado, my unordered top 15 albums for 2020 for tech-death are from the following artists: Beneath The Massacre, Pyrrhon, Vampire Squid, Defeated Sanity, Shadow In The Darkness, Thaetas, Goreworm, Deeds of Flesh, Dessiderium, Afterbirth, Ulcerate, Wormhole, Akurion, Aseitas, and Mephistophelian.
The following two lists below highlight the rest of my favorite 2020 tech-death full-lengths and a secondary list for favorite EP's with an emphasis on trying to list what is less well known at the top for each list. At the end of the day, features like this are simply about sharing what we love and hoping it brings joy to others. Like clockwork, I'm sure some people will need to leave a comment letting me know I didn't do this feature the way they would have since that happens every year. Enjoy! Or, don’t. Whatever. See you next year in 2021.
