Nekrotik Flesh is a death metal and crust band from Liverpool, UK, formed in 2020. Their sound merges death metal heaviness with the raw punk energy of crust from the Merseyside underground.
Neuron is a death metal, grindcore, and crust band from Kiel on the Baltic coast, active since 2015. The band fuses three strains of extreme music from Schleswig-Holstein's capital city.
Somewhere in the Pacific Northwest, Nightmare Fuel splices crust punk's filth and urgency directly into black metal's ice-cold fury. Born in 2020 and already sounding like something that crawled out of a condemned squat at 3 AM.
Roman death/doom metal and crust act formed in 2012, merging extreme metal heaviness with punk's raw directness from Italy's capital. Their triple-genre fusion creates a sound both crushing and politically charged.
Volos-based black metal and crust punk hybrid formed in 2019, combining the atmospheric intensity of black metal with crust's raw D-beat energy. Their fusion of these complementary extremes creates a sound both savage and atmospheric.
Nizvergnut is a crust/death/doom metal band from Saint Petersburg, Russia, active since 2014. Their name — Russian for 'cast down' — captures the descending heaviness of their sound.
Out of Ithaca, New York, No End have been tearing through crust-inflected grindcore since 2016 — short, violent bursts of d-beat chaos and blastbeat fury that carry the DIY ethics of both the punk and metal underground. Their Bandcamp handle (noendnoise) is a fair warning: this is noise with a point, driven by the kind of righteous disgust that's always animated the grindcore and crust tradition at its most earnest.
Lviv black metal and crust act formed in 2019, fusing extreme metal intensity with D-beat punk energy from western Ukraine's cultural capital. Their hybrid approach channels the confrontational spirit of both traditions.
Nocturnal Scum is a death metal and crust band from Berlin, active since 2016. The band pairs death metal heaviness with crust punk's raw urgency from the German capital.
