Dying Spirit - Rebirth (2006)

Dying Spirit are from Poland and are trying to play technical death metal with some melody. I say "trying" because they're really not getting the "technical" part. Or at least, their music would be considered technical if they could actually play it. Instead, we get a mess of off-time and out-of-tune death metal. Compositionally, they're about on the level of Descend into Nothingness. But technically, I'm reminded of bands like Liers in Wait's Spiritually Uncontrolled Art and Epoch of Unlight's first album. So there's some potential here, but not until they clean up their act a little.

This is available as a free download from their website.
