Anarkhon is a death metal band from Guarulhos, São Paulo, founded in 1999, who survived the tragic loss of original vocalist Péricles Hooper to a hit-and-run accident and continued with guitarist Aron Romero — also of black/thrash act Power From Hell — taking over vocal duties. Their early work, including albums "Obesidade Mórbida" (2007) and "Welcome to the Gore Show" (2013), delivered brutal, gore-drenched death metal, before the band evolved toward a more atmospheric and cerebral sound on "Phantasmagorical Personification of the Death Temple" (2020, Debemur Morti Productions), blending cavernous death metal with black metal textures and H.P. Lovecraft-inspired cosmic horror themes.
Cadaveric Infection is an extreme metal band from Cabo de Santo Agostinho, Pernambuco, Brazil, formed in June 2009. The band began as a brutal death metal act before shifting toward a black/death metal style in later years, with lyrical themes centered on carnage, anti-Christianity, and Satanism. They are signed to Suicide Apology Records and remain active within the Brazilian underground metal scene.
Coveiros is a metal band from Porto Velho, Rondônia, Brazil, one of the more isolated corners of the Brazilian extreme metal underground. Beginning with a hardcore and early death metal approach, the band shifted toward thrash and death metal over time, releasing a self-titled album in 2007 featuring fourteen tracks. They remain active as an independent act in the Porto Velho metal scene.
Infernal Cemetery is a blasphemous black/death metal band from Coronel Marcelino Mariduena in Ecuador's Guayas province, formed in 2024. Their debut release "Necrosemen of Impurity Genocide" delivers fast riffing over blasting double bass drums with lyrics centered on occultism, Satanism, and anti-Christianity, positioning the band as part of the rotten extreme metal underground of South America.
Skullpture is a death metal band from Santiago, Chile, active since 2009, with early material leaning into death/thrash territory before shifting toward a more purely death metal sound. The band's themes span death, gore, and horror, placing them firmly within Santiago's longstanding extreme metal underground.
Death metal band from Teresina, Piauí, formed in 2019, recording with English-language lyrics that address themes of human degradation and conflict. Their debut full-length Visceral Annihilation was released in 2023 and is available on Bandcamp and Spotify.
