Las Vegas's Demon Lung are one of the most compelling doom metal acts to emerge from the American desert, active since 2012 with a sound that mirrors the city's extremes — scorching, hypnotic, and relentlessly heavy. Their slow-burning compositions lean into classic occult doom territory, driven by powerful female vocals that command the suffocating sonic atmosphere.
Demon Orgy is a sludge/doom metal band from Madrid, Spain, formed in 2020. They deliver filthy, heavy sludge and doom from the Spanish capital.
Atlanta's Demonaut have been navigating the molten intersection of stoner and doom metal since 2012, bringing a distinctly Southern heaviness to riff worship. Their music moves like slow lava — thick, immovable, hazy with fuzz — anchored in a groove that makes the crawl hypnotic rather than punishing.
Demonia is a doom and gothic metal band from Milan, Italy, formed in 2018. The project weaves somber gothic atmospheres with crushing doom metal heaviness in a darkly melodic Milanese metal vision.
Demonic Incarnate is a death/doom metal band from Germany, formed in 2021. They merge death metal's brutality with doom's crushing weight and oppressive atmosphere.
Vicious Death / Thrash Metal from Austin.
Demonslut is a doom/stoner metal band from the Sinsheim/Heidelberg area of Germany, active since 2012. They deliver heavy, fuzz-drenched doom and stoner metal with provocative attitude.
Out of Antioch, California since 2015, Demonsmoke drag sludge and doom metal through the Bay Area's grimy underbelly, building suffocating walls of distortion laced with a toxic, crawling menace. Their music has the slow-motion fury of sludge's hardcore roots married to doom's infinite, oppressive descent.
Denat THC is a doom, sludge, and stoner metal band from Bielsko-Biala, Poland, formed in 2024. The project channels heavy, fuzzed-out doom and stoner riffs from the Silesian Beskids.
