This I Owe is a progressive heavy/doom metal/hard rock band from Athens, formed in 2023. Their music blends progressive complexity with the weight of doom and the accessibility of hard rock.
Thod from Paris craft blackened doom metal whose name evokes ancient, ominous weight since 2023. Their compositions merge black metal's atmospheric hostility with doom's crushing pace from the French capital.

Thoreous is a drone/doom metal band from the Freiburg/Stuttgart corridor of Germany, formed in 2013. They craft glacially paced, hypnotic drone doom that pushes heaviness to its extremes.

Three Eyes Left is a stoner/doom metal band from Bologna, active since 2011. Their surreal name adds a bizarre edge to the heavy, fuzz-laden doom and stoner riffs they deliver from the Emilian capital.
Throth from Bristol blend sludge metal, doom, and shoegaze into a hazy, crushing hybrid since 2015. A decade of genre-melting compositions from the West Country has produced some of the most texturally rich heavy music in the Bristol underground.
Lisbon's Through Void craft doom/death metal that explores the emptiness between moments of crushing heaviness since 2024. Their name captures the vast, hollow spaces their music inhabits — compositions that balance silence and devastation in equal measure.
