Black metal band from Mogi das Cruzes, São Paulo, formed in 1994. The band contributed the track "El frio nascimiento de uma era de trevas" to the 2001 cassette compilation Southern Nightmare... the Fist Tentation, released by Words of Evil, and "Last Sunset of a Dark Milenium" appeared on the compilation Pure Fucking Black Metal via Nuktemeron Productions.
Temps de Chien from Brittany craft black metal under a French expression meaning 'dog weather' or 'foul weather,' perfectly capturing the grey, rain-lashed Breton climate since 2016. A decade of storm-soaked compositions channels the Celtic Atlantic coast's relentless weather through raw extremity.
Doom/black metal band from Fortaleza, Ceará, formed in 2006, featuring members performing under the names Mictantecutli, Loki, Gylve, and Luciferiano. The band released the demo Ritos, Sacrifícios e Glória in 2008 and appeared on the 2014 four-way split Tenebras Nigrum Malefici Paganus alongside Nocturne Sortilege, Féretro Avernal, and Nomades, released by Cursecandle Records in a limited edition of 500 copies.
Fort Lauderdale's Tempus Fugit have been practicing technical power/thrash metal since 2014, a demanding hybrid that requires both precision and firepower in equal measure. Their South Florida origins are fitting for a band whose music buzzes with a relentless, sun-scorched energy — technically demanding riffs delivered at thrash velocity with the melodic ambition of power metal.
Tempête de Neige from France craft atmospheric black metal and ambient under a French name meaning 'snowstorm,' channeling blizzard conditions through ethereal, freezing compositions since 2024. Their meteorological name drives music as white-out disorienting and bitterly cold as their namesake.
Ten Onder, meaning 'go under' in Dutch, practice depressive black metal from the Gelderland/Utrecht region, channeling overwhelming despair through lo-fi atmospherics and anguished vocals since 2013. Their music inhabits the genre's most emotionally desolate territory.
Tendril is a death/black metal band from England. Their music merges the guttural intensity of death metal with the atmospheric darkness of black metal, carving out a space in the British extreme metal underground.
Tenebree is a black metal band from Talca, Chile, founded in 2014 by multi-instrumentalist Neguss, who was later joined by Tralkan, MathL, Iskandar, and Chkngr. The band released its debut full-length "Infinito honor de existencia" in 2017, followed by "Errante herejía" in 2020 through Chilean label Australis Records.
Black metal band from São Paulo, formed in 2005, active through approximately 2016. Their primary documented release is the split Necromantheon, shared with fellow São Paulo act Obscurys, issued on December 20, 2012 by Black Candle Records in a limited edition of 200 copies.
