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.

Named after the tail-star of Leo, Derry, New Hampshire's Denebola launched in 2025 with a cosmically bleak convergence of doom, death, and black metal that suits the cold granite desolation of New England. Their multi-genre approach maps the boundaries between suffocating heaviness and icy atmosphere, suggesting a young band already comfortable in dark, expansive territory.
Denial of Existence is a death/doom metal band from the Dormagen/Elsdorf area of Germany, formed in 2023. They explore nihilistic themes through oppressive death/doom heaviness.
Denigrate is a band from Tuusula, Finland, formed in 2015, whose sound evolved from gothic metal into progressive/doom metal and rock. Their artistic evolution spans multiple genres while maintaining a dark aesthetic.
