Farnborough, GB · 2024–present · active
Amnabys channels doom and stoner metal from the Hampshire town of Farnborough since 2024, bringing heavy, psychedelic grooves to the Home Counties. Their enigmatic name adds mystery to their crushing sound.
Rostock, DE · 2004–present · active
Amnesie is a death metal and grindcore band from Rostock, Germany, active since 2004, delivering the brutal, high-speed assault characteristic of the grindcore-death metal crossover. Based in the port city on the Baltic coast, the band has maintained a two-decade presence in northeastern Germany's extreme metal underground.
Turin, IT · 2014–present · active
Amnesis explores progressive metal from Turin since 2014, their name — derived from the Greek for 'forgetfulness' — contrasting with the intricate, carefully constructed compositions they create. Piedmont's progressive metal tradition gains another voice in their detailed sonic architecture.
Olecko, PL · 2018–present · active
Amnestia channels death and thrash metal from Olecko in the Masurian Lake District since 2018. Their name — Polish for 'amnesty' — contrasts with the unforgiving aggression of their metal from this northeastern frontier town.
Rouen, FR · 2023–present · active
Amnesy brings heavy metal from the Norman capital of Rouen since 2023, their amnesia-inflected name suggesting music that makes listeners forget everything else. Their traditional metal approach adds to Normandy's growing roster of classic metal acts.
Budapest, HU · 2015–present · active
Amnezia is a Budapest heavy metal outfit formed in 2015, carrying forward the tradition of straight-ahead, riff-centric metal in Hungary's capital. Their approach favors direct, hard-hitting songwriting over excessive ornamentation.
Piraeus, GR · 2014–present · active
Piraeus' Amniac craft atmospheric post-metal and sludge that ebbs and flows between delicate tension and crushing release. Since 2014, they've built expansive sonic landscapes from the port city that serves as Athens' industrial gateway.
Zaragoza, ES · 2008–present · active
Originally formed in Zaragoza in 2000, Amnion explored atmospheric black metal themes of darkness and desolation across a career that eventually led to their transformation into Cryptic Wanderings. Their legacy lives on through the successor project, which took its name from Amnion's sole album.
Athens, GR · 2011–present · active
Athens' Amnis Nihili channel the existential void through black metal compositions of bleak intensity, their Latin name ('river of nothing') encapsulating their nihilistic philosophical outlook. Active since 2011, they explore themes of emptiness and dissolution.
