Funerapolis is a doom metal band from Bergen, Norway, active since 2010. Named in a portmanteau of 'funeral' and 'metropolis,' they deliver crushing doom metal from Bergen — a city whose perpetual rain and mountainous isolation provide a natural backdrop for the genre.
Funereum is a melodic death/doom metal band from Naples, Italy, formed in 2018. They blend the melodic sensibility of death metal with the crushing weight of doom from one of southern Italy's most historically significant and culturally rich cities.
Funerium is a funeral doom metal band from Ilmajoki, Finland, formed in 2016. The band creates glacially slow, crushing funeral doom from the South Ostrobothnian municipality.
Funestum is a funeral doom metal project from Kyiv, Ukraine, active since 2013. They deliver the glacial heaviness of funeral doom from the Ukrainian capital, their Latin name — meaning 'deadly' — capturing the genre's suffocating finality.
Fungi Death Ritual is a black/doom/thrash metal project from Moscow, Russia, formed in 2016. Their mycological name and genre-blending approach create a uniquely fungal strain of extreme metal, merging three subgenres into something organic and strange.
Blasphemous Funeral Doom / Black Metal / Ambient from Dallas.
Fuoco Fatuo is a funeral doom/death metal band from Varese, Italy, formed in 2014 and translating to 'will-o'-the-wisp' in Italian. Their releases — The Viper Slithers in the Ashes of What Remains (2014), Backwater (2017), and the critically acclaimed Obsidian Katabasis (2021) — deliver dense, swirling, cosmically dark funeral doom influenced by Disembowelment and Esoteric.
Furva Ambiguitas is a black/funeral doom metal project from Voronezh in southern Russia, formed in 2013. Their Latin name — meaning 'dark ambiguity' — captures the opaque, suffocating character of their funeral doom mixed with black metal from the Central Black Earth region.
Furze is an experimental black metal and black/doom project from Trondheim, Norway, active since 1998. Over more than twenty-five years, the project has carved out a singular niche in the Norwegian underground, pushing black metal into experimental and psychedelic territory far from the genre's orthodox center.
