Melodic death/progressive metal band from Navapolatsk, Belarus, who released their discography under an ambitious chapter-by-chapter conceptual framework on Bandcamp. Their series of releases—from Chapitre I through Chapitre V: The Middle Earth—draws on literary and mythological reference points including Baudelaire and Tolkien, suggesting a band as interested in narrative and atmosphere as in technical execution. Their melodic death foundation is consistently laced with progressive architecture and a clear love of conceptual album-making.
Terranovem from England craft melodic black and death metal under a Latin-derived name suggesting 'new earth' or 'nine lands' since 2011. Over a decade of compositions has explored territories between melodic sophistication and extreme aggression.
