Crust punk, death metal, and grindcore band from the UK formed in 2020. They deliver raw, punishing extremity across multiple genres.
Black metal and crust hybrid from Studanka, Czech Republic, fusing the atmospheric darkness of black metal with punk's raw, D-beat aggression since 2023. Their militant name reflects a combative approach that draws from both genres' most confrontational elements.
Death metal and crust punk hybrid from Switzerland, merging the guttural heaviness of death metal with the raw, D-beat energy of crust since 2018. Their dual-genre approach creates a filthy, unpolished sound that draws from punk and metal's most extreme fringes.
Moscow-based crust punk and thrash metal act, active since 2022 delivering palm-muted barrages and speed-freak intensity. Rooted in one of Eastern Europe's most extreme metal communities, their riffs arrive at terminal velocity with zero tolerance for filler.
Crust punk and death metal act from Santiago de Compostela, Galicia, Spain, active since 2001. With over two decades of activity, they are a pillar of the Galician crust and extreme underground.
Crust punk and thrash metal band from Oldham in Greater Manchester, England active since 2015. They deliver raw, politically charged crust-thrash from the industrial north.
Ipswich-based crust punk, death metal, and grindcore act, active since 1995 delivering blast-beat saturation and screaming vocals in sub-minute bursts. Rooted in Britain's endlessly regenerating metal lineage, their sound resists easy categorization, blending influences into something distinctly their own.
