Theory in Practice - Discography


Theory in Practice has been my favorite death metal band ever since I first heard "Conspiracy in Cloning" way back in mid-2004. Sure, Nocturnus did almost everything this band has done about a decade beforehand, but Theory layered some well needed melody on top of that early-90s Floridian complexity. It's not just "FUCK" anymore. It's "holy mother of god HOW?"

For anyone in the mood for some completely over-the-top, OVERWHELMINGLY complex technical death metal, with some shiny songwriting skills and spacey keyboards tossed in at the last minute. Ever since their conception, Theory have opted for raspy, high-pitched shrieking growls instead of that low, bestial rumble your kids all know and love. They can be a little grating to begin with, but try your best to learn to love them. This band really delivers the goods once you do.

Note: This band gets their discography posted because they're so Goddamned good. Also, these albums are extremely hard to physically acquire without putting your son's brain surgery on hold. If anyone asks, I got lucky. My son is sti-...I mean, he's just fine, I swear.
