Alzheimer plays heavy metal and hard rock from Lentini near Syracuse in eastern Sicily, having formed in 2005 under a name that evokes the terrifying erosion of memory and identity. Their two-decade run from this ancient Sicilian town has produced a consistent body of classic-leaning heavy rock and metal.
Melodic metalcore/deathcore band from Vevey, Switzerland, active since 2014 with releases including their debut "Aberrant Minds Provoke Murders" (2014), "A Mountain Peaks' Myth" (2019), and the 2024 EP "Despised Paradise." Their 2025 single "Increase" was recorded, mixed, and mastered by Loic Gaillard at Uproarious Records, with orchestrations by Brian Bendahan.
Amaguq practices black metal from Rennes in Brittany since 2016, named after the Inuit wolf spirit. From the capital of France's Celtic-influenced northwestern region, they channel the predatory spirit of their Arctic namesake.
Amala channels heavy and folk metal from Timișoara in the Banat since 2020. From Romania's westernmost major city — the city that sparked the 1989 revolution — they blend traditional Banat folk elements with metallic force.
Amalek is a black metal band from Saxony, Germany, formed in 2018, operating in the raw and uncompromising tradition of the genre. The band's Saxony roots place them within one of eastern Germany's most active regions for underground black metal.
Athens' Amalphi generate thick, fuzz-drenched doom and stoner metal built on massive riffs and hypnotic grooves. Since 2019, they've been crafting a haze of psychedelic heaviness that nods to the genre's desert rock roots.
Amalthea has evolved from atmospheric death and doom metal into alternative rock territory from Murcia since their most recent incarnation in 2025. Named after the goat that nursed infant Zeus, their stylistic metamorphosis reflects the nourishing, transformative power of their Mediterranean setting.
Amanita Virosa takes its name from the deadly destroying angel mushroom and delivers equally toxic melodic death metal from Mikkeli since 2015. The mycological moniker perfectly suits a band whose music combines lethal heaviness with deceptive melodic beauty.
Amanite delivers raw black metal from the Mediterranean port of Toulon since 2015, named after the deadly Amanita mushroom genus. Their toxic fungal name suits a sound designed to be as lethal and unpalatable as the poisonous fungi they honor.
