Luhansk, UA · 2017–present · active
Power metal band from Luhansk, Ukraine, formed in 2017, delivering epic power metal from the embattled eastern Ukrainian city. They bring heroic tales through anthemic metal.
High Wycombe, GB · 2015–present · active
One of Denmark's more obscure black metal entities, Putrifixion has been lurking in the underground since 1995, making them a genuinely early-wave Scandinavian black metal project. Their three decades of activity — much of it shrouded in anonymity — speak to a commitment beyond trend-chasing.
Linköping, SE · 2013–present · active
Named after the psychoactive mushroom genus, Laudio's Psilocybe has been dispensing thrash metal with hallucinatory intensity since 2016. Their Basque Country setting connects them to Álava's underground scene, where extreme music thrives in small but passionate communities.
Rendsburg, DE · 2016–present · active
Rendsburg's Powerhead fuses heavy, power, and thrash metal into a triple-pronged assault from the Schleswig-Holstein countryside since 2016. Their Kiel Canal-adjacent base provides an appropriately industrial setting for their high-octane approach.
Bad Wörishofen, DE · 2024–present · active
Bad Wörishofen's PowerSaint arrived in 2024 carrying the banner of Bavarian heavy and power metal with an almost devotional intensity. Their Swabian spa-town origins provide a serene counterpoint to their thunderous, fist-raising anthems.
Wipperfürth, DE · 2019–present · active
Wipperfürth's Powerslave has been channeling the spirit of classic power metal since 2019, their Maiden-referencing name establishing their lineage immediately. Their Bergisches Land origins place them in the hilly countryside east of Cologne.
Wijnendale, BE · 2019–present · active
A young Belgian power metal duo forged in 2019, Powerstone channels the dual-guitar attack and soaring melodies that defined the genre's late-'90s golden age. Their Wijnendale origins place them in West Flanders, far from Belgium's metal epicenters, lending an underdog energy to their anthemic sound.
Argos, GR · 2011–present · active
Power metal band from Argos, Greece, formed in 2011, channeling the epic grandeur of European power metal from the ancient Peloponnesian city. They bring anthemic metal fury from one of the world's oldest continuously inhabited cities.

Epic power metal band from Lorenskog, Norway, formed in 2011, wielding their blade-like name through anthemic, sword-swinging power metal. They bring epic Scandinavian power metal to the Oslo metropolitan area.
