Blackened death metal
Combining two of the heaviest and sonically abusing subgenres in music, blackened death metal takes the best elements of death metal and black metal and fuses them into a gratifying package. The degree of incorporation of either genre varies; for example, while most bands prefer death metal gargles, some do employ black metal shrieks as well. The tone of the guitars is often reflective of a primitive black metal sound. Blackened death metal bands often incorporate more melodic instrumentation into their arsenals, including piano/keyboards, violins, organ, and acoustic guitar.

Technical death metal
It’s all about complex riffs and extremely fast tempos. Technical death metal borrows the speed of thrash metal and slaps it together with the brutality of traditional death metal. Intricate guitar solos fly while the vocalist growls his way through the album, the bass player thumps along at high speed, and the drummer breaks another pair of sticks. A high focus is placed on technical skill and playing ability, and usually less emphasis is put on traditional melodic instrumentation.

Progressive death metal
These bands are all about mixing it up. Progressive death metal bands may synthesize any number of genres with their predominant death metal sound, but at the intentional locus of every band rests a bold, pioneering spirit. These bands use a variety of nontraditional methods in their music, including bizarre instruments (organ, sitar), atypical time signatures and tempos, and uncharacteristically lengthy songs. Progressive death metal bands often utilize melodic instruments and incorporate melodic singing in their songs.
