I am into Cynic, Atheist, Pestilence, along with some of the thrashier prog metal bands, like Mekong Delta, Watchtower and of course Spastic Ink. I am looking for bands like these. I am not sure if this earlier style of minimal blast beat drumming prog metal is still around.

Since you know Spastic Ink, I'm certain you know Blotted Science, but just thought I'd throw them out there just in case you didn't.

Well, Blotted Science is Ron Jarzombek's latest project and is tech prog/death and has some INSANE time sigs. It's instrumental, but it definitely fits exactly what you're looking for.

Thought Industry's Songs for Insects is definitely one of the more progressive thrash albums out there, although there are some non-thrash acoustic type songs mixed in. Believer's last three albums should appeal to both the thrash and death senses.

EDIT: Oh, and Coroner's Mental Vortex if you haven't heard it.

Try gorguts's obscura. One of the most insane technical death metal albums out there. Its not the blinding speed or fast riffs on this, its the most off the wall time signatures and complex beats i've ever heard in tech death. The album is completely mindblowing. You might like 'erosion of sanity' and 'from wisdom to hate' as well. Decapitated is based around weird time signatures as well.

Try Sceptic. Very thrashy & brilliant death metal.

Really, really agree with the Gorguts rec. Obscura is definitely their tech-iest album.

Blotted Science is worth a listen too, and it's nice to hear Alex Webster in a non-Cannibal Corpse setting

I know Dark Angel has a progressive album, I forget the title though.

Check out the Japanese Prog/Death band Gonin-Ish. If you can get past the sparse J-pop sounding female vocals you'll find a very enjoyable band to listen to.
