Stoner doom act from Utrecht, formed in 1998. Their music moves at a glacial pace through layers of fuzz and psychedelic textures, inviting the listener into a trance-like state of heavy meditation.
Grindcore act from Rome, formed in 2017. Their music exists in a state of perpetual detonation, packing blast beats and screamed vocals into compositions that rarely exceed the two-minute mark.
Czech experimental grindcore and death metal band from Prague, active since 1996, making them one of the longer-running acts in the Czech extreme music underground. Their nearly three decades of output blends grindcore chaos with death metal heaviness and experimental unpredictability.
Stoner doom act from Malmö, formed in 2018. Their music moves at a glacial pace through layers of fuzz and psychedelic textures, inviting the listener into a trance-like state of heavy meditation.
Voronezh-based brutal death metal outfit active since 2021, delivering relentless blastbeat-driven punishment and guttural vocal extremity. Their compositions trade in the genre's heaviest currency: slamming breakdowns, inhuman vocals, and wall-to-wall brutality.
Experimental death metal trio from Auch in southwestern France, formed in 2012, featuring Ivy Brizard on vocals, Mickael Le Van on guitar, and Nicolas Mendousse on drums. Their djent-inflected approach explores dystopian and philosophical themes across releases like One Day On Earth and their 2024 EP on M&O Music.
