Matutano is a grindcore band from Bilbao, Spain, self-described as purveyors of 'grindcore snacks' — short, punchy blasts of aggression laced with crude humor. Since their 2011 debut, they have unleashed a prolific run of releases including the 'PA PAM!' series and 'DEMOLITION' (2018).
A thrash metal act from Trondheim, Matwrak has been delivering aggressive compositions since 2020. The band channels the city's extreme metal heritage into ripping thrash.

Mauled is a death/thrash metal and crust punk act from Naples, formed in 2025. The band merges the aggression of extreme metal with the raw energy of crust punk from southern Italy's chaotic capital.

Maunra are a blackened sludge and post-metal band from Vienna, Austria, who released their debut full-length 'Monarch' in September 2022 after five years of developing their sound. The album — recorded, mixed, and produced by Hannes Mottl, and mastered at Tonmeisterei Oldenburg — spans seven tracks that the band describes as 'a journey between the realms of decay and becoming.' Unlike many post-metal acts, Maunra anchor their sound firmly in riff worship rather than pure atmosphere.
