A3-5 delivers thrash metal and crossover from an undisclosed Polish location since 2022. Their alphanumeric designation adds a mechanical, impersonal quality to their high-speed punk-metal fusion.
Absenta is a death and thrash metal crossover band from Torrelavega in Cantabria, Spain, formed in 2010, whose self-described 'post black n roll metal' blends post-black metal with death, thrash, and heavy metal influences. Their albums Under the Sight of Mulhacen and the 2016 follow-up Eel, recorded with producer Manuel Martinez of Estirpe at Mart Estudios and released through Necromance Records, deliver atmospheric yet aggressive compositions.
Adrenicide has been delivering crossover thrash from Slough since 2006, channeling the Berkshire town's working-class intensity into nearly two decades of punk-metal fury. Their adrenaline-homicide portmanteau captures the lethal velocity of their sound.
Aggressive Oppression delivers crossover and thrash metal from Moscow since 2016. Their authoritarian name drives punk-influenced thrash from the Russian capital with the relentless force their title promises.
Agrophobia merges crossover and thrash metal from Latina, the Pontine Marshes city south of Rome, since 2017. Their name — a play on the fear of open spaces — contrasts with the wide-open aggression of their punk-infused thrash.
Alacrity delivers crossover and death metal from Warsaw since 2012. Their energetic name — meaning cheerful willingness — brings an unexpected enthusiasm to the violence of their punk-death fusion from the Polish capital.
Alkol plays thrash metal with crossover punk attitude from Rome since 2017, another alcohol-themed act channeling intoxicated energy into high-speed riffing. The Eternal City's punk-metal crossover scene provides a natural home for their no-frills aggression.
All Borders Kill delivers crossover thrash from Montpellier since 2017, their politically charged name reflecting the anti-authoritarian lyrics that fuel their punk-metal fury. Their Mediterranean origins add warmth to what is otherwise an uncompromising sonic assault.
Always War delivers crossover and hardcore from Uppsala since 2010. Their perpetual-conflict name drives fifteen years of punk-influenced aggression from Sweden's ecclesiastical capital.
