Morri fuses blackened thrash with the abrasive energy of crust punk, drawing on the raw aggression shared between those worlds. Their 2019 EP "Não Existe Vida," recorded at LF Studio in Realengo, announced a band with no interest in polish — just velocity, hostility, and grime.
A melodic black-death metal band from Ninove, East Flanders, Belgium, formed in 2004 and named after the Irish goddess of war. Their discography spans from the demo 'Forgotten Embrace' through the full-length 'Before Light / After Dark' (2014), by which point the band had evolved from a doom-death foundation into a more progressive and melodic sound over a decade of activity.
A raw black metal project from Kyiv, Morrokk has been crafting primitive, lo-fi compositions since 2016. The project channels the Ukrainian capital's underground intensity into stripped-down black metal aggression.
Seattle post-black metal band Morrow, active since 2016, bring a crust punk and anarcho edge to atmospheric black metal — their Bandcamp handle (morrowpunx) says plenty about where their loyalties lie. They combine sweeping, post-rock influenced black metal textures with the raw political urgency of the punk underground.
Morrtuum is an Eckental-based black metal act that has cultivated a deliberately obscure presence since 2005. Drawing from the Franconian underground, the project favors atmosphere and bleak melody over sheer velocity.
Seattle melodic black and power metal band Mors Navis, formed in 2021, fuse the melodic grandeur of power metal with the cold aggression of black metal, creating a sound that is simultaneously epic and grim. Their work sits at an ambitious intersection of two traditions that rarely meet so directly.
Mors Silens is a melodic death and black metal band from Mezőberény, Hungary, formed in 2018. They blend melodic death metal with black metal from the Hungarian plains.
A black metal project from Naples, Mors Spei — Latin for 'death of hope' — has been crafting nihilistic compositions since 2015. The project channels existential despair into atmospheric black metal from southern Italy.
Pennsylvania black metal project Mors Umbra is one of the newer entries in the genre, formed in 2025 and dealing in the kind of unrelenting, shadow-heavy extremity the name implies. Still in their earliest stages, they represent the ongoing vitality of American black metal's underground grassroots.
