Louisville's Tehillah have been weaponizing blackened death metal since 2015, drawing on Kentucky's tradition of serious, no-frills heavy music and pushing it into the pitch-black extremes. The name — Hebrew for "praise" — sits in sharp irony against their caustic sound, which finds the sacred in the most violent sonic spaces.

Their willingness to dissolve black metal's traditional frameworks places them among the Dutch scene's more adventurous projects.
