Oneonta, New York's Deiphage formed in 2023 in the black/death metal tradition — a pairing that fuses the iciness and atmosphere of black metal with death metal's penchant for brutality and technical violence. The band's name suggests something that devours gods, and their sound operates accordingly: relentless, uncompromising, and built for total annihilation.
Sacramento's Deiphage emerged in 2023 channeling the rawest currents of black/death metal — a collision of blasphemous tremolo assaults and sepulchral death metal brutality. Their approach favors filth and atmosphere over technicality, finding its footing in the tradition of war metal's most uncompromising practitioners.
Deiquisitor is a death metal band from Ringsted, Denmark, formed in 2016. They play aggressive, old-school-influenced death metal.
Formed in 2016 in Pleasanton, California, Deities fuse the jackhammer riffing of Bay Area thrash with the churning low-end of death metal. The band carries on the aggression of the region's thrash legacy while pushing into harder, more death-inflected territory.
Peru, Illinois band Deity Disfigured launched in 2021 blending the melodic sweep of Gothenburg-style death metal with the percussive weight of deathcore. Their sound navigates the tension between melodic hooks and breakdowns, adding a level of darkness that keeps it planted firmly on the extreme end.
Deivos is a technical death metal band from Lublin, Poland, formed in 2006. The project delivers technically precise and brutally aggressive death metal from eastern Poland.
Dejadeath is a band from Barcelona, Spain, active since 2013, whose sound evolved from death metal into a complex fusion of progressive, thrash, and death metal. Their ambitious approach pushes boundaries across multiple subgenres.
Dejected is a melodic death metal band from Castrop-Rauxel in the Ruhr Valley, active since 2018 and channeling the post-industrial landscape of Germany's rust belt into emotionally charged, melody-driven compositions. Their name captures the despondent undercurrent that runs through their music despite its melodic accessibility.
Dejected Mass is a death/doom metal band from Mannheim, Germany, formed in 2015. They combine the crushing weight of doom with death metal's aggression for a sound steeped in despair.
