Fungoid Stream is a Buenos Aires funeral doom duo — Joseph C. handling all instruments and Simon O. on vocals — whose entire discography draws from the H.P. Lovecraft universe, with lyrics taken directly from Lovecraft's writings. The band released five albums over two decades, from the debut "Celaenus Fragments" (2004) through "Prehuman Shapes" (2014) and "The Winds Among the Stars" (2019), concluding with the farewell album "A Nightmare and a Cataclysm" in October 2024, accompanied by a 4-CD anniversary box set.
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.
