Athens, GR · 2018–present · active

Basque Country, ES · 2016–present · active
Agoyzen delivers death metal from the Basque Country since 2016, their Basque-language name bringing the ancient Euskara tongue into extreme metal territory. Their Basque identity distinguishes them within Spain's broader death metal landscape.
Tatabánya, HU · 1997–present · active
Formed in the industrial town of Tatabánya in 1997, Agregator fuses the melodic intensity of Swedish-style death metal with gothic metal's brooding elegance.

Lubin, PL · 2025–present · active

Emerging from Vigo's metal scene in 2011, Agónica spent years refining their melodic death metal identity before recording their debut "A New Onset" in 2012 with producer Pedro Mendes at Ultrasound Studios.
