I prefer atheist over death. they played a lot more diverse and various themes, styles, and also (except symbolic) has more energy and message than death songs.
Well Death is fucking awesome also, Could just be my personal preference though, but I've always Enjoyed Atheist a bit more than Cynic and Death, Probably because they were the ones that single handedly turned me on to Death Metal.
But whatever, without Death, Tech Death wouldn't be the same as it is today, same thing with Cynic.
Death made it all man. Brutal, melodic, technical, progressive, you name it. Moreso it was Chuck but with members like Ralph Santolla, Gene Hoglan, Steve DiGiorgio, and a shitload of others, they perfectly crafted his works into the sculptures they are today. Human, Individual Thought Patterns, Spiritual Healing, etc., etc. Cynic, well..I don't really know what to think about them.
I was more talking in the realm of Tech Death. Atheist started it with Piece of Time IMO, Gorguts and Death continued it with Considered Dead and Human, and Cynic came in a little later with Focus.
Plenty of others, but those are the forefathers of the genre right there.

Every single member of Atheist's old line-ups was incredibly talented. This band is practically flawless...

Chuck repeatedly abused harmonic minor. I like Death, but i prefer Atheist and Cynic(latin jazz/jazz rock fusion as opposed to more generic metal)
