Turin's Scream 3 Days pair death and melodic death metal from the Piedmontese capital since 2014. Their name's implied endurance mirrors a commitment to sustaining intensity across their compositions.
Moscow's Scream in Darkness pair death and melodic death metal from the Russian capital since 2014. Their name of vocal extremity in shadow channels the cry from within darkness into compositions balancing brutality and melody.
Rome's Screaming Banshee blend death and progressive metal with a supernatural name since 2014. Their Irish-folklore-inspired moniker adds a cross-cultural dimension to their technically ambitious Italian extremity.
Cuneo's Screaming Eyes arrived in 2025 with death and melodic death metal from the Piedmontese Alps. Their mountain-ringed origins lend a natural grandeur to their balance of brutality and melody.
Screams from Equestria blend death metal, deathcore, and melodic death metal from an undisclosed Irish location since 2013. Their unusual name, referencing a fictional pony realm, creates a jarring contrast with their extreme sound.
Screams of Death deliver death metal from an undisclosed Swedish location since 2011. Their literal genre-description name channels the vocal extremity of the style itself into over a decade of anonymous compositions.
Named for the Hockomock Swamp — a legendarily haunted stretch of southeastern Massachusetts that Native Americans called a place of evil spirits — Weymouth's Screams of Hockomock have been channeling that unsettling regional folklore into melodic death/black metal since 2018. The swamp's history of mysterious lights, cryptid sightings, and indigenous warning legends makes it an appropriately eerie muse for music that blends melodic death metal's emotional sweep with black metal's atmospheric menace. Local mythology as metal fuel, executed with genuine craft.
A solo melodic death metal project from Schärding, Upper Austria, led by Marc P. Prohaska and formed in 2016, Screams of Tranquility has released four albums — "Rival The Sun" (2020), "Trails Of Oblivion" (2021), "Omens Of Death" (2022), and "No Foot's Print Ever Laid" (2023) — through SODEH Records. Prohaska blends Scandinavian melodeath, American thrash, and black metal influences while exploring themes of social excess and the erosion of collective humanity.
