Eths formed in Marseille, France in 1996 and developed a distinctive metalcore and groove metal sound that drew comparisons to Meshuggah and Tool while incorporating the contrasting clean and harsh vocal interplay of frontwoman Candice Clot. Their 2004 debut full-length Soma sold over 25,000 copies in France on the strength of an extensive 120-date tour, and the follow-up Tératologie (2007) expanded their international reach. After releasing III (2012) and Ankaa (2016), the band announced their dissolution in November 2016.
Eufobia is a heavy/groove metal trio from Médanos, Buenos Aires province, Argentina, who have released three albums: "Cup Of Mud" (2011), a self-titled record (November 2016), and "Madness" (June 2022). The band operates as an independent act, building a consistent discography across more than a decade.

Fort Lauderdale's Eversinceve has been delivering melodic groove metal and metalcore out of South Florida since 2016, a region that has historically produced some of extreme metal's most brutal practitioners. Their groove-forward, melodic approach carves a distinct niche in Florida's heavy music landscape, prioritizing hooks alongside heaviness.
Eindhoven, Netherlands — death metal, deathcore, and groove metal of the most uncompromising kind. Active since 2022, they deal in punishing grooves interlocked with frenzied tremolo passages. Primal ferocity drives every note of their catalog.
Groove/thrash metal band from Ciudad Real, Spain formed in 2013. They deliver riff-heavy, mosh-ready metal from the heart of Castilla-La Mancha.
A product of Italy's deep-rooted extreme metal underground, this Milan-based groove metal and symphonic metal act channels cinematic sweep and operatic vocals over thundering metal arrangements.
