Italian black metal and raw black metal act, active since 2025 delivering dissonant chord progressions shrouded in reverb-drenched malice. Rooted in the Mediterranean peninsula's diverse metal ecosystem, atmosphere and hostility share equal billing in their work.

Raw black metal project from the medieval Franconian town of Dinkelsbuhl, Germany, formed in 2022. Their approach channels the genre's most primitive and unrefined tendencies through a deliberately lo-fi sonic aesthetic.
Raw black metal and ambient project from Germany, merging the genre's most primitive aggression with ethereal, atmospheric layers since 2014. Their approach creates a stark contrast between lo-fi black metal fury and contemplative ambient passages.

Black/death metal and raw black metal band from Split, Croatia active since 2017. They deliver fierce extreme metal from the Adriatic coast.
Pridnestrovie, Moldova — black metal and raw black metal of the most uncompromising kind. Active since 2023, they deal in frigid atmospherics and razor-wire guitar tone. Blast beats and shrieked vocals create an impenetrable wall of darkness.
Raw black metal solo project from Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, releasing lo-fi, stripped-down black metal since 2013. Their two-track debut "Unknown" channels a deliberately primitive, noise-drenched approach to the genre.
