Decaen is a stoner/doom/sludge metal project conceived by Bosnian-born guitarist and vocalist Haris Dekanovic, now based in Germany, who draws on blues and grunge as foundation for heavy riff-based compositions. The 2022 debut No Rest for the Slaves — seven tracks including Forest Demon and Cosmic Stone — marks the project's first official release under his solo banner.

Deformus plays a hybrid of heavy, stoner, and sludge metal from 's-Hertogenbosch in North Brabant, active since 2017. Their genre-blending approach creates deformed, misshapen compositions that refuse to fit neatly into any single category — as their name implies.

Dekonstruktor plays stoner/doom metal from Moscow, active since 2014 and systematically dismantling musical structures through heavy, fuzz-laden compositions. Their German-Russian hybrid name evokes deliberate disassembly — taking heaviness apart to rebuild it heavier.
