Martyr
French-Canadians Martyr played a highly complex form of technical
death metal, a style that soon became synonymous with the Quebec
area.
Drawing from bands such as late-period
Death,
Cynic,
and
Atheist,
the song arrangements jumped all over the place, showcasing the
advanced musicianship of the members.
Not for the casual metal listener, as the riffs and time signatures
were constantly changing, but for technical metal fans,
this band was a must.
After self-releasing their albums for far too long, they finally
signed to
Galy
Records for what turned out to be their last album,
Feeding The Abscess.
They broke up in 2012, and guitarist Daniel Montgrain went on to replace
the immortal Piggy in
Voivod.
