A heavy rock and metal band from Austria with roots in Salzburg and later Lower Austria, Tamed by the Machine describe themselves as being "born from the ashes of pork and beer" — a tongue-in-cheek nod to their no-frills, road-worn approach to hard rock.

Tanatos from Rome deliver heavy metal named after the Greek personification of death since 2013. Over a decade of mortality-themed compositions from the Eternal City channels ancient mythology through classic metal.
Heavy metal band from Zürich, formed in 1992 and named after the mythical city of peace in Michael Moorcock's Eternal Champion stories. Between 1994 and 1999 they produced two albums and built a reputation as a formidable live act, earning support slots with Blind Guardian, Savatage, King Diamond, and W.A.S.P.
