Lisbon's Through Void craft doom/death metal that explores the emptiness between moments of crushing heaviness since 2024. Their name captures the vast, hollow spaces their music inhabits — compositions that balance silence and devastation in equal measure.
Through Your Silence is a melodic death metal band from Milan, active since 2008. Their contemplative name contrasts with the aggressive melodic death metal they've delivered for nearly two decades from Lombardy's capital.
Vienna heavy metal band ThrowingShade draw from the classic hard rock and metal canon — reviewers have cited Metallica and Pantera as touchstones for their riff-forward, hook-driven approach. Their self-titled album includes the track "Bitch Machine" and reflects a no-frills, live-energy-first sensibility honed through regular performances at Vienna venues.
Thrownaway from the small Swabian town of Ehingen blend melodic death metal with metalcore's rhythmic intensity, formed in 2025 as one of Baden-Württemberg's newest heavy acts. Their name channels the discarded and overlooked into aggressive, emotionally charged compositions.
Thrym from Verneuil-sur-Seine deliver Viking metal named after the frost giant of Norse mythology who stole Thor's hammer since 2014. A decade of frost-giant-sized compositions from the Île-de-France has channeled Scandinavian sagas through a French lens.
Thulan is a progressive black metal project from Italy, formed in 2022. Their name evokes the mythical northern land of Thule, channeling that icy mysticism through progressive black metal compositions.
Thulian is a raw black metal project from Jyväskylä, Finland, formed in 2021. They pursue the most stripped-down end of the black metal spectrum.
Thulnar is a symphonic black metal band from Bologna, active since 2015. Their fantastical name suits the orchestral grandeur they layer over aggressive black metal from the Emilian capital.
Thulr from the Baltic port of Kiel weave folk influences through melodic black metal, named after the Old Norse word for a wise speaker or sage since 2014. Their compositions blend the cold atmosphere of Schleswig-Holstein's North Sea coast with folk-tinged melodic passages.
