Eternal Fall is a doom/death metal band from Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil, blending the heavy atmospheres of both genres with sincerity and determination.

California's Eternal Misery take the savagery of black, death, and thrash metal and run them through the same blender without pausing for breath. Active since 2012, they are a no-frills extremity machine with consistent venom.
Tennessee's Eternal Morbidity emerged in 2020 with a straight-ahead death metal approach, built on guttural punishment and relentless forward motion. They carry the underground's oldest traditions without dressing them up in anything unnecessary.
Seattle's Eternal Nocturne arrived in 2024 with a melodic death metal sound that channels the Pacific Northwest's grey skies — hooky guitar leads cutting through dense, thundering riffage.
Out of Idaho Falls since 2013, Eternal North fuses the sweep and grandeur of power metal with the serrated attack of melodic death, conjuring the harsh beauty of the high desert.
