From Strasburg, Virginia, Thus, Anguish have been active since 2012 and occupy the muscular middle ground between death metal's brutality, groove metal's propulsive swing, and metalcore's structural tension. The band's location in the Shenandoah Valley gives them a regional distance from the coasts that seems to feed a raw, working-class directness in their approach.
Thuum from Bournemouth deliver sludge and groove metal named after the dragon-shout power from The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim since 2018. Their Dorset coast base channels the Thu'um's devastating vocal force through crushing, rhythmically driven compositions.
Thy Throne is a death/groove metal band from Turku, Finland, formed in 2024. They combine death metal's heaviness with groove metal's rhythmic power.
Providence, Rhode Island's Thy Will Be Done have been at the groove metal and metalcore crossroads since 2013, building songs around thick, mid-tempo riffs and the rhythmic swagger that puts groove at the center of their attack. Providence has a fierce independent music tradition, and the band's decade-plus tenure there reflects a commitment to heavy music in a city that takes its underground seriously.
Thyrant from Málaga blend melodic death metal with groove metal's rhythmic punch, creating a sun-drenched yet aggressive hybrid from the Costa del Sol since 2017. Their tyrannical name drives compositions that balance Mediterranean melody with crushing groove from Andalusia.
Tiat5 is a groove/death metal band from Florence, formed in 2023. Their cryptic name adds mystery to the heavy grooves and death metal aggression they deliver from the cradle of the Renaissance.
Till Die is a technical thrash metal band with groove influences from Cesena/Forlì, formed in 2020. Their uncompromising name matches the relentless intensity of their technical thrash from Romagna.
Time of Addictions is a melodic groove metal band from Finland, formed in 2023. They blend melodic elements with groove metal's rhythmic heaviness.
Titan Breed from Glasgow deliver groove metal with the giant-spawning power their name demands since 2017. Their Scottish base channels the mythology of titans through rhythmically crushing compositions.
