Athens-based stoner/doom outfit active since 2009, conjuring thick clouds of fuzz-laden riffage and hypnotic, groove-driven compositions. Their sound channels the haze of 1970s proto-metal through a modern lens of distortion-worship and lysergic exploration.
Malung-based heavy/power metal ensemble embracing Norse mythology through bombastic, anthemic compositions since 2012. Their epic, chorus-driven approach to Viking-themed power metal has garnered a substantial following online.
Groove metal outfit from Slough, formed in 2016. Their material trades in the satisfying crunch of heavy, rhythmically driven riffs that demand involuntary neck movement.
Trondheim-based melodic black metal project active since 2017, tempering raw aggression with sweeping arrangements and harmonized guitar leads. Their approach balances the genre's inherent hostility with moments of dark grandeur.
Spanish power metal band from Murcia, formed in 2017. They deliver powerful, anthemic power metal from southeastern Spain.
Milan-based post-doom outfit active since 2023, building dynamic compositions that arc between quiet introspection and crushing, distortion-soaked climaxes. Their patient approach to heavy music rewards the listener with cathartic crescendos born from extended tension.
Spanish black metal band from Málaga, formed in 2023. They channel vampiric black metal from the Andalusian coast.
Ivano-Frankivsk-based brutal death metal outfit active since 2021, delivering relentless blastbeat-driven punishment and guttural vocal extremity. Their compositions trade in the genre's heaviest currency: slamming breakdowns, inhuman vocals, and wall-to-wall brutality.
German black metal band from Leipzig, formed in 2017. They channel raw black metal from one of eastern Germany's strongest metal cities.
