Oslo, NO · 2015–present · active
Stubbornly devoted to the riff, this black metal and thrash metal act from Oslo traffics in tremolo-picked fury and blast-beat savagery. Since 2015, they've built a catalog that reflects the frozen north that birthed an entire genre.
Paris, FR · 2010–present · active

Pontine Marshes (Latina), Italy — black metal and folk metal of the most uncompromising kind. Active since 2012, they deal in acoustic instrumentation clashing productively with electric fury. The combination of influences yields something more interesting than any single genre label implies.
Saint-Étienne, FR · 2016–present · active
