Milwaukee's To the Dogs emerged in 2020 with a scrappy, vicious sound that mashes black metal's corrosive atmosphere into thrash riffs and crust punk's anarchic energy, keeping things raw and confrontational throughout.
New Jersey's To Writhe Love on Her Arms, formed in 2023, occupy an emotionally raw corner of post-black metal where shoegaze textures and atmospheric black metal converge — introspective, layered, and deliberately fragile.
To'Ebah is a black metal band from Mattie in the province of Turin, formed in 2019. Their Hebrew-derived name, meaning 'abomination,' channels transgressive fury through black metal from the Piedmontese Alps.
Named with the menace of Cormac McCarthy's most savage characters, Eureka, California's Toadvine play black/thrash with a feral, punk-stained edge — raw, fast, and mean since their 2019 formation on the Northern California coast.
Todesengel is a black metal project from North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, formed in 2022. Their name meaning "angel of death," they deliver dark, intense black metal.
Black metal project from Luz, Minas Gerais, formed in May 2022. The debut album O Sétimo Selo was released on June 27, 2024, preceded by the single Ergo Non Sum in March 2023; the band operates independently with a doomed, raw approach to black metal.
Dallas's Todeskrieger, formed in 2020, practice unadorned black metal in the most orthodox sense — cold, aggressive, and rooted in the tradition's core values of atmosphere and nihilism, operating from one of Texas's most active underground metal cities.
Todeskult is a black metal band from Nuremberg, Germany, formed in 2019. Their name meaning "death cult," they channel ritualistic black metal from the Franconian underground.
Todeslicht from Athens craft atmospheric black metal and ambient under a German name meaning 'death light' since 2018. Their choice of German linguistic heritage for a Greek project creates a deliberate cross-cultural tension.
