Definition: An offshoot genre of former progressive-metal musicians from Stockton CA who realized that Djent sucks and is nothing more than prissy metal with Lamb of god, Coldplay, and typewriter sounds all blended together in one. Further association away from it became necessary thus becoming “Regressive-metal.” The style incorporates heavy psychedelic/90’s Seattle rock/Doom/Stoner-metal/thrash styles paired with extended range guitars in unique tunings and using palm muted rhythms with two-note minor 2nd chords to get those voluptuous “mud-flutters” (Zsubb ... Zsubb.. zsubb zsubb). The style also incorporates band-members saying “doe” often in a sentence.
