London-based doom/sludge outfit active since 2024, dragging their compositions through a swamp of distortion, feedback, and crushing tempos. Their sound sits at the punishing intersection where doom metal's patience meets sludge's confrontational aggression.
Newcastle drone/doom mystics channeling Middle Eastern textures and psychedelic meditation through glacial, extended compositions since 2005. With over fifty releases including eight studio albums, they have performed at Roadburn Festival and shared stages with Sunn O))), establishing themselves as a cornerstone of UK drone metal.
German drone/doom/stoner metal band from Dortmund, formed in 2017. They layer droning riffs over doom and stoner metal foundations with a haze-induced ritualistic approach.
Bydgoszcz-based funeral doom project active since 2018, stretching compositions to their absolute breaking point through glacial tempos and overwhelming sonic density. Their music moves with the slow inevitability of geological time.
