All Is Quiet creates atmospheric black metal from Helsinki since 2020, their deceptively peaceful name masking the intense emotional landscapes beneath. From Finland's capital, they explore the tension between silence and storm through atmospheric compositions.
Corpus Christi, Texas black metal project. Nihilistic totality from the Gulf Coast.
Vinton, Louisiana black metal project drawing from the swamplands of Cajun country. Two releases of raw, lo-fi black metal that feel haunted by the bayou humidity and Southern Gothic atmosphere.
All My Sins practices black metal from Pančevo near Belgrade since 2004. Over two decades of activity, their confessional name has guided a sustained exploration of guilt and darkness from this Banat industrial city.
Arizona atmospheric black metal project crafting immersive, nature-inspired black metal since 2014. Three releases explore themes of desolation and transcendence through layered tremolo work and ambient passages.
All Stars Are Dead is a post-black metal band from Nuremberg, Germany, whose raw, atmospheric sound explores themes of melancholy, despair, and apocalyptic finality. Their releases include the Tyrant demo and the album Solace in Surrender, both channeling the bleakness and intensity that define the post-black metal style.
All That Heaven Allows fuses black and death metal from the Scottish border town of Dumfries since 2023, their ironic Hollywood-melodrama name contrasting with the extremity of their sound. Their Dumfries and Galloway origins feed a uniquely Scottish perspective.
All the Cold has evolved from ambient black metal into progressive rock from Murmansk, Russia's largest Arctic city, since 2013. Their cold-embracing name naturally suits music born above the Arctic Circle, where winter darkness lasts months.
All-One creates symphonic black metal from an undisclosed Slovak location since 2010. Their unified name drives fifteen years of orchestrally enriched compositions that seek totality through extreme metal.
