San Francisco's Deliria have been crafting atmospheric post-black metal since 2017, pushing beyond raw black metal orthodoxy into vast, dissonant soundscapes. Their music absorbs the fog and introspective weight of the Bay Area, fusing black metal's ferocity with the expansive textures of the post-metal and shoegaze traditions.

Delirio Occulto is a black metal band from Syracuse, Sicily, formed in 2015 by Nascinos following the breakup of Opus in Flames. Drawing heavily from 1990s black metal influences, the band has released albums like 'Echoes from the Ancient World' from the Sicilian underground.
Born in 2025 somewhere in Southern California, Delirium Shroud weaponize black/thrash metal's most lethal qualities — venomous riffing, feral tempos, and a production aesthetic that sounds like it was recorded in the ruins of something. Their very recent emergence suggests a project still finding its shape, but the black/thrash blueprint is a proven vehicle for pure spite.
