* LoudnessWar: Surprisingly averted (for the most part) with ''Antithesis'' and ''Entity''. ''Antithesis'' had decent dynamic range ([=DR9=]) but still had noticeable clipping issues and general muddiness, but ''Entity'', while slightly more compressed ([=DR8=]), took great pains to avoid clipping, creating a wonderfully crisp, balanced, and engrossing mix that set a fantastic example for how modern death metal albums should aspire to sound. They have generally kept this up since then; their latest, ''Chaosmos'', is also [=DR8=].

Then again, with Colin Marston (of Music/{{Krallice}}, Music/{{Gorguts}}, and numerous other acts) responsible for mastering all albums since ''Entity'', this is to be expected.

Up To Eleven is a defunct trope


* UpToEleven: In general as far as technical death goes, but especially live. Some technical death acts have trouble pulling off some of their more complicated material live and/or tend to fall victim to the "stand around playing your instruments" trap; Origin actually plays it even FASTER without a hitch and has cultivated a reputation as a ferocious live act.

Added DiffLines:

** ''Chaosmos'' is substantially less technical (to the point of barely even qualifying as technical death metal), with extremely prominent old-school death metal, black metal, and hardcore elements and a more mosh-friendly approach than is typical for them.
