Washington state's Deliriant Nerve formed in 2022 at the intersection of grindcore's brevity and death metal's brutality. Sharing a Bandcamp handle with Philadelphia's Deliriant, the band channels the Pacific Northwest's extreme music community into blasts of grinding intensity and raw, punishing velocity.
Delirium Silence plays doom/death metal from Yakutsk, one of the coldest cities on Earth, active since 2015. Their extreme sub-Arctic location — where temperatures plunge below minus 40 — lends genuine, bone-deep cold to compositions already steeped in frozen despair.
Delirium's Dawn is a heavy/thrash/death metal and metalcore band from Munich, Germany, active since 2008. They forge an ambitious crossover of multiple metal subgenres into a powerful, versatile sound.
Deliro plays melodic death metal from Khabarovsk in Russia's Far East, formed in 2025 and bringing Gothenburg-influenced melody to the Pacific edge of the continent. Their Italian-derived name — meaning delirium — adds Mediterranean flair to music from the opposite end of Eurasia.
Deliver the Galaxy is a melodic death metal band from Quedlinburg, Germany, formed in 2020. They blend cosmic themes with the power of melodic death metal.
Deliver the Suffering is a death/thrash metal band from Toulouse, France, formed in 2024. They deliver suffering through fierce death/thrash from southwestern France.
Deliver Us is a black/death metal band from Rushden, England, active since 2012. They deliver extreme metal salvation from Northamptonshire.
Deliver Us to Evil is a thrash/death metal band from Nottingham, England, formed in 2017. They deliver evil thrash/death from the East Midlands.
Augusta, Georgia's Dellamorte emerged in 2022 as a grindcore outfit named after the Italian phrase for death — a fittingly direct name for a band that delivers rapid-fire blasts of noise-soaked intensity. The band draws from the genre's roots in punk and extreme metal, keeping the songs short, loud, and purposefully destructive.
