Face the Misery is a symphonic death metal/deathcore band from Le Mans, France, formed in 2018. The band layers orchestral arrangements over death metal and deathcore foundations.
Lowell, Massachusetts's Faceless Enemy started in 2022 as brutal deathcore before pivoting toward slam and brutal death metal — an evolution toward pure extremity with no interest in accessibility.
Twin Falls, Idaho's Faces of Annihilation have been combining blackened death metal and deathcore since 2018, a rural Pacific Northwest act pushing extreme metal in an unlikely location.
Charleston, West Virginia's Fall Before Your Creator brings blackened deathcore's overwhelming density to Appalachia since 2011, fusing the extremity of black and death metal with the breakdown-driven structure of deathcore into something unrelenting.
Fall to Flames is a deathcore band from Nottingham, England, formed in 2015. The band delivers crushing deathcore from the East Midlands city.
Fallen Apollo is a death metal/deathcore band from Colchester, England, formed in 2013. The band fuses death metal brutality with deathcore's breakdowns from the Essex town.
One of the more ambitious acts to emerge from the technical death metal world, Fallujah started as a deathcore band before evolving into something far more expansive — layering atmospheric textures and progressive structures over punishing heaviness. Based in Nashville, they've pushed the genre's boundaries since 2016 without abandoning its brutality.
Falsegods is a deathcore band from Manchester, England, formed in 2016. The band delivers aggressive, breakdown-heavy deathcore from the northern English city.
Oregon's Falxifer is a fresh 2025 act pushing brutal death metal and deathcore into each other with ruthless efficiency. The name itself — Latin for 'sickle-bearer' — points to a sound that has no interest in subtlety.
