Tombeau from Paris deliver black and death metal under the French word for 'tomb' or 'memorial,' formed in 2025. Their name also references the French baroque musical tradition of composing tombeaux — memorial pieces for the dead.
Tombeaux de Fer from Gex near the Swiss border craft black metal under a French name meaning 'iron tombs' since 2024. Their Ain department base, at the foot of the Jura mountains and overlooking Geneva, adds Alpine severity to their metallic funerary concept.
Brooklyn's Tombs are one of the most distinctive voices to emerge from the New York underground, layering post-metal's expansive atmosphere over black metal's bleakness since 2009 to create dense, emotionally charged records that transcend both genres.
Tomhet is a black metal band from Catania, Sicily, active since 2008. Their Scandinavian name, meaning 'emptiness' in Swedish, channels that void through black metal from the foot of Mount Etna.
Tomorrowillbeworse is a post-black metal band from London, active since 2013. Their bleakly prophetic name sets the tone for atmospheric post-black metal that combines tremolo-driven intensity with expansive, emotionally charged soundscapes.
Tomrummet is a black metal/ambient project from Oulu, Finland, formed in 2014. They blend black metal with ambient soundscapes from the Finnish north.
Richmond's Tond weave symphonic grandeur and folk melody through a black metal framework, a combination formed in 2013 that draws on pagan and orchestral aesthetics without abandoning rawness. The layered approach — atmospheric synths, folk instrumentation, and corrosive tremolo riffing — marks them as one of the more ambitious acts on the East Coast underground.

Greenville, South Carolina's Tone S.T.S. have been channeling black metal's hatred and sludge metal's oppressive slow burn into a unified, filth-encrusted sound since 2015. The combination suits the isolation of the Upstate South, where atmosphere and weight converge into something genuinely suffocating.
