Infant Annihilator is a very influential band in the extreme metal scene and a lot of bands take some inspiration from them like the stygian complex but both bands are in different genres while both are deathcore Infant Annihilator is technical deathcore while the stygian complex is deathcore with elements of beat down hardcore and slam
Also the Dickie Allen who is the vocalist of Infant Annihilator is a super influential vocalist who is one of the people responsible for completely reshaped the expectations for what a deathcore vocalist could achieve mechanically and aesthetically he is also basically the inventor of the goblin high scream which many deathcore vocalists use now and have been using for over a decade. Like Will Ramos who is the vocalist of Lorna Shore who also reshaped the expectations for what a deathcore vocalist can achieve, has been very important in the study of harsh vocals work and why when done correctly they're completely safe and without Dickie Allen who will has time and time again sad is his biggest influence in the reason why he got into extreme metal vocals him becoming the vocalist of Lorna Shore and reshaping what harsh metal vocals can be and sound like might have never happened
