Falling Giants is a stoner/sludge/doom band from Ancona, Italy, self-described as 'filthy stoner sludge.' Their 2023 debut Whirlwind Hymns sprawls across seven tracks of low-tuned, atmospheric heaviness, with songs regularly stretching past ten minutes into droning, meditative territory.

Out of Patchogue, New York, False Gods deal in the slow and heavy — doom and sludge metal that crawls forward with deliberate menace. Formed in 2016, they build tension through weight and repetition rather than speed.
Falso Cordero is a stoner/doom metal band from Durango, Mexico, formed in 2019. The band plays slow, heavy, and psychedelic-leaning doom rock, and released their debut album ALTARE in 2019, followed by Experientia.
