A brand-new entry from Kansas City, Missouri, Don Tvsk formed in 2025 at the intersection of black metal's cold fury and doom's crushing torpor. The pairing is a natural one — both genres traffic in despair, just at different tempos — and Kansas City's underrated extreme metal community provides a fitting home for such an uncompromising project. With their ink barely dry, they are among the most recently formed black/doom acts in the current American underground.
Doodskist is a doom metal band from North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, formed in 2023. They deliver crushing, coffin-heavy doom from the German underground.
Doom Architect plays doom/death metal from Izhevsk, the capital of Udmurtia in the Urals, active since 2014. Their blueprint-maker name frames each composition as a carefully designed structure of crushing weight and sorrowful beauty.
