A groove and thrash metal band formed in 2016 with Colorado roots but Los Angeles ties, Sin Eater deliver the kind of pit-ready, mid-paced brutality that groove metal demands alongside the speed and aggression thrash contributes to the mix. Their sineaterofficial Bandcamp presence reflects a band serious about building an audience.
Sinergia channel groove metal from Barcelona, building rhythmic, headbang-inducing compositions from the Catalan capital. Active since 2017, they bring synergistic heaviness to the Mediterranean scene.
Topeka, Kansas quartet SinFool blend the chug-heavy groove of Pantera-influenced metal with the aggressive bark of metalcore, a combination that reflects the raw Midwestern work ethic of their scene since their 2020 formation. Their sound sits at the intersection of accessible heaviness and contemporary metalcore attitude.
Groton, Connecticut's Singe merge the downtuned murk of sludge metal with groove metal's locked-in rhythmic drive, carving a sound that feels as weathered and industrial as their coastal New England setting. Formed in 2021, the band leans into slow-burning heaviness accented by punishing mid-tempo breakdowns.
New Rochelle, New York's Sinicyst emerged in 2023 fusing the dirty stomp of sludge metal, crossover thrash's hardcore bite, and groove metal's rhythmic punch into an uncompromising hybrid that feels like it was forged somewhere between the Westchester suburbs and downtown Manhattan's rougher-edged clubs. Their willingness to blend three distinct heavy subgenres makes for an unpredictable and abrasive listen.
SinKing deliver groove metal from the southern Finnish town of Turenki, channeling rhythmic heaviness as they sink into heavy grooves. Formed in 2020, they bring sin-laden rhythmic power to the Kanta-Hame scene.
Sinmas evolved from hardcore/punk origins into thrash and groove metal from Bilbao, tracing the natural bridge between punk energy and metal aggression. Active since 2020, they bring Basque crossover spirit to the Spanish thrash scene.
Sinnemia blend groove and gothic metal with rock elements from Brno, creating a darkly melodic sound that balances heaviness with accessibility. Their Moravian capital base gives them access to one of the Czech Republic's most vibrant music scenes.
Santa Barbara, California's Sinsation formed in 2020 playing groove metal shaded with hard rock, favoring mid-paced, rhythmically punishing riffs and an accessible sensibility that bridges the gap between heavy and radio-friendly.
