Dodmorke plays raw black metal and punk from Mikhaylovsk in Stavropol Krai, active since 2020. Their fusion of lo-fi black metal with punk's directness creates a volatile, unpolished sound from Russia's southern steppes.
Dodskammer is a black metal band from Vicenza, Italy, formed in 2002. One of the veteran black metal acts in the Veneto region, the project has delivered over two decades of dark extreme metal.

Dodskop plays black metal and noise from Beek en Donk in North Brabant, formed in 2025 and whose Dutch name — meaning "death's head" — signals skull-themed extremity. Their fusion of black metal's tremolo darkness with noise's abrasive textures creates a sound that attacks from both atmospheric and textural directions.
Doedsjarl plays raw black metal from Mikhaylovsk in Stavropol Krai, formed in 2022 and whose Norse-styled name — meaning "death earl" — channels Nordic black metal aesthetics through a southern Russian lens. Their lo-fi approach strips the genre to its most essential, abrasive elements.
Doedskvad is a Madrid-based black metal act formed in 2019 whose Norwegian-styled name signals an allegiance to Scandinavian black metal traditions transplanted to the Iberian Peninsula. Their compositions channel Northern European bleakness through a Spanish lens, creating an atmospheric tension between warmth and frost.
Doedsstraff plays black/thrash metal from Bergen, active since 2013 and whose Norwegian name — meaning "death penalty" — delivers capital punishment through extreme sonic violence. Their dual-genre assault combines black metal's atmospheric malice with thrash's execution-speed riffing.
Dogman is a one-person raw black metal project from Sarajevo, fronted by the sole member known as Gustavo — the Dogman of Sarajevo — who handles all instruments and vocals. Releases including the 2021 EP ...of Sovereign Blood & Lycanthropic Pride and the 2022 album Alcoholic Fury & Madness (Total Death) indulge themes of bestiality, alcoholism, and insanity through deliberately primitive sound design.
