Cincinnati's Nogothula entered the blackened death metal space in 2022 with a sound built on the most corrosive qualities of both parent genres — the cold tremolo hostility of black metal fused with death metal's crushing low-end and blasting intensity. Ohio's underground metal scene has historically punched above its weight, and Nogothula continues that tradition by pushing the extremes of a hybrid genre rather than softening them. The project's name carries a mythic, incantatory quality that matches their dense and ritualistic approach.
Nogrod is a black metal band from Pilsen, Czech Republic, active since 2016. Named after the Dwarven city from Tolkien's legendarium, the project channels fantasy-infused black metal from Bohemia's second city.
