Demodeus is a death/groove metal band from Pontevedra, Spain, active since 2012. They combine death metal's aggression with groove metal's rhythmic power from Galicia.
Las Vegas, New Mexico's Demogorgon emerged in 2016 where the desert amplifies both isolation and extremity, channeling that severity into a blackened death metal assault that seethes with cold dissonance and blasting ferocity. The band occupies the corrosive overlap between black metal's atmospheric menace and death metal's physical brutality.
Demogorgoth plays symphonic/melodic death/black metal from Saratov on the Volga, active since 2010 and named after the demon prince of the Abyss. Their multi-genre approach layers orchestral grandeur over extreme metal foundations in compositions of epic scale.
A death metal band from Peer in Limburg, Demolished formed in 2005 and earned recognition after winning Belgium's national Metal Battle competition and performing on the W.E.T. stage at Wacken Open Air. The band operates as an independent act within the Belgian underground death metal circuit.
Named after the infamous radioactive sphere that killed two physicists, Orange County's Demon Core have been delivering lethal death metal since 2018. Their Southern California roots come through in a style that favors technical precision and crushing low-end attack, a worthy product of the region's brutal death tradition.
Demon Days is a death metal band from Poznan, Poland, formed in 2017. The project channels aggressive death metal from the Greater Poland capital.
Demon Lodge plays death/doom metal from the Netherlands, active since 2020 and offering shelter — however sinister — at the crossroads of both genres. Their infernal-hotel imagery lends a narrative dimension to slow, crushing compositions.
Demon Project plays melodic/industrial death metal and metalcore from Novosibirsk, formed in 2022 and fusing electronic textures with extreme metal aggression from Siberia's capital city. Their project-format name signals an experimental, evolving approach to genre-blending.
Demon Shinegami plays symphonic black/death/folk metal from the small town of Valuyki in Belgorod Oblast, active since 2010. Their Japanese death-god reference and multi-genre approach create an ambitious fusion that bridges Eastern mythology with European extreme metal traditions.
