Deaf and Blind is a black metal/crust punk band from Cholet, France, formed in 2021. They fuse black metal's darkness with crust's raw DIY fury.
Portland's Death Machine drag heavy metal into the gutter with crust punk's filth and fury, a grimy collision born from the Pacific Northwest's underground in 2016. Raw, loud, and decidedly unpolished.
Death Noize plays black/thrash metal with crust influences from Transylvania, active since 2013 and fusing three aggressive genres into a raw, unpolished assault. Their noisy approach channels the underground DIY spirit of crust punk through the lens of Transylvanian extreme metal.
Death Support exist where black metal's cold war on the listener meets crust punk's burning-wreckage aesthetic — caustic, confrontational, and deliberately ugly since 2024. The combination feels less like a genre blend and more like a genuine threat.
Death Whore is a death metal/crust band from Nancy, France, formed in 2020. They deliver filthy death metal and crust from Lorraine.
Deathbearer is a death metal/hardcore/crust band from Hamburg, Germany, formed in 2015. They combine death metal's brutality with hardcore and crust punk's raw urgency and D-beat energy.
Deathbus is a crossover/thrash metal and crust band from the Belfast/Lisburn area of Northern Ireland, formed in 2016. They ride the deathbus through fierce crossover thrash and crust.
Deathfiend is a sludge/doom metal and crust/hardcore punk band from Birmingham, England, formed in 2022. They merge crushing sludge doom with punk ferocity from the second city.
DeathFuckingWound is a black metal/grindcore/crust punk band from Finland, emerging in 2025. Their blunt name matches their savage fusion of extreme subgenres.
