Nevelhel is a black/doom metal band from Belgium's Limburg province, active since 2013. The project's name evokes the Norse realm of mist and darkness, fitting for their fusion of black metal bleakness with doom metal's crushing weight.
Stockton, California black metal outfit Never to Suffer has been operating in the Central Valley's underground since 2016, drawing on the bleaker registers of the genre to build music that fits a city with a complicated, often brutal history. Their sound is unsparing and deeply felt.
Tempe, Arizona's NeverBreath carves black metal from the desert Southwest's extremes — not icy forests but scorching exposure, relentless sun, and an environment that offers no mercy. Formed in 2020, they channel that harshness into a form of the genre that feels genuinely regional.
NeverChrist is an anti-fascist black metal project helmed by Thiago Perdurabo, who has operated the band largely as a solo entity since 2021. The project's output includes Latin-American Elite of Anti-NSBM (2018) and the more recent full-length Thelema's Way (2025), which was composed and produced entirely by Perdurabo at his home studio in Magé. From 2010 to 2019, Thiago lead the band as solo musician. In 2019 Allan Kunha entered as the live drummer, and Thiago followed recording all the instruments until today. Now Thiago is composing new material to commemorate the 26th anniversary of the band.
Neverendinghate is a black/thrash metal band from Santander in Cantabria, active since 2008. The band channels inexhaustible aggression through nearly two decades of blackened thrash from Spain's northern coast.
Neverfading is a depressive black metal project from London, UK, formed in 2023. The project channels melancholy and existential despair through the raw emotional framework of depressive black metal.
Operating under the name Horda Nevoa on streaming platforms, this Rio Grande do Sul black metal act delivers a raw, war-obsessed assault drawing on themes of slaughter, satanism, and death that are squarely in the Brazilian black metal tradition. Their 2017 full-length Black Southern Winds is a 13-track statement of intent, and the band followed it with Obscura Essência in 2021, showing consistent output since their 2015 debut Satanic Bloody Wars.
Nevrast is a black metal project from Pavia, Italy, active since 2015. Named after a region in Tolkien's Beleriand, they draw on Middle-earth lore for their atmospheric darkness.
Nevrome was a French experimental black metal group formed by Samael and Morax in 2015, active until March 2018. Across four releases including Perversion, Black Sun, and Girls of Glass, they explored the experimental fringes of black metal.
