Warmduscher are a London post-punk band formed in 2014, growing from connections around Fat White Family, Paranoid London, Insecure Men, and other corners of the city's unruly underground. Their music is greasy, funny, and abrasive, mixing garage rock, post-punk, mutant funk, electronic sleaze, and spoken-sung character work into songs that feel like bad ideas gaining rhythm. The group began almost as a chaotic side project, but albums such as Khaki Tears, Whale City, Tainted Lunch, At the Hotspot, and Too Cold to Hold reveal a more deliberate band underneath the mess. Clams Baker Jr.'s vocals give the songs a theatrical scuzz, while the guitars, bass, drums, and electronics create grooves that are danceable without being clean. Warmduscher's lyrics and atmosphere often lean into nightlife grotesquerie, class satire, paranoia, sex, appetite, and comic decay. They are not heavy in a metal sense, but they carry the dirt and confrontational edge of noise rock and punk. The band matters because it makes post-punk feel disreputable again. Warmduscher understand that sleaze can be an aesthetic tool, but the songs work because the grooves are strong and the chaos is arranged with intent.
Death metal band from Saratov, Russia formed in 2020. Warmeat delivers visceral death metal from the Volga River city of central Russia.

Progressive/groove metal band from Moscow, Russia active since 2014. Warmoth blends progressive complexity with groove metal's rhythmic punch from the Russian capital.
