Philadelphia doom outfit Deliriant coalesced in 2022, channeling the city's dense, oppressive atmosphere into slow-burning funeral doom. Operating under the Bandcamp handle deliriantnerve, the band deals in monolithic riffs and a suffocating heaviness that makes room feel smaller the longer the music plays.
Delirium Projekt is a gothic and doom metal project from Temuco, Araucanía, Chile, originally founded by members of the Chilean doom act Lapsus Dei. The project operates as a largely solo effort with Rodrigo Poblete handling all instruments and vocals, and released the album From Natural Waves in 2013 through Sun Empire Productions.
Delirium Silence plays doom/death metal from Yakutsk, one of the coldest cities on Earth, active since 2015. Their extreme sub-Arctic location — where temperatures plunge below minus 40 — lends genuine, bone-deep cold to compositions already steeped in frozen despair.
Deller plays doom/sludge metal from Taganrog on the Sea of Azov, active since 2014. Their coastal southern Russian location provides a warmer-than-typical backdrop for the genre's characteristic heaviness and slow-motion aggression.
Bangor, Maine's Delph have been crafting stoner doom since 2017, their sound shaped by the long winters and isolated wilderness of northern New England. The band blends fuzz-heavy stoner grooves with doom metal's glacial pacing, producing music that feels as unhurried and inevitable as the Maine landscape itself.
Gaithersburg, Maryland's Demassify have been stacking fuzz-laden riffs since 2020, navigating the thick overlap between stoner metal, doom, and classic heavy metal. Their sound calls to mind long desert highways and low-slung power chords — deliberate, heavy, and deeply rooted in the analog warmth of hard rock tradition.
Dementify is a Bulgarian metal act from Stara Zagora blending doom, progressive, and stoner metal into a brooding, heavyweight sound. Their 2020 release 'The Night' explores introspective themes through slow-burning, emotionally heavy compositions.
Demenzia is a death metal and doom metal band from Sofia, Bulgaria, active since 2005 with a catalog spanning multiple EPs and full-lengths including 'Machinima' and 'Different Seasons.' Their sound merges melodic death metal sensibilities with crushing doom passages.
Demimonde is an avant-garde metal band from Prague, Czech Republic, formed in 2013 and pushing boundaries across death, doom, and gothic metal. Their genre-defying approach fuses experimental songwriting with the darkness and heaviness of multiple extreme metal traditions.
