Symphonic folk metal band from Brno, Czech Republic featuring a dual-vocal approach with clean female vocals alongside male growls. Their releases Vegr, Beyond the Ninth Wave, and Far away in the North draw on nature, pagan history, and mythology.
Black metal and crust band from Manchester, England active since 2014. Wolfbastard merges the raw ferocity of black metal with crust punk's urgent aggression from one of England's greatest music cities.
Originally formed as Wolfpack in Gothenburg, Sweden in 1995, the band renamed themselves Wolfbrigade in 2000 to distance themselves from a neo-Nazi prison gang that shared the name.

Releases including Prey to the World (2007), Damned (2012), and Run with the Hunted (2017) on Metal Blade Records established them as one of the most durable and respected acts at the intersection of crust and death metal.
