Industrial death-metalcore act from Poland, formed in 2023. Chrome Black Future merges cold electronic textures with extreme metal aggression in a futuristic package.

Circle of Animals formed in Chicago around 2010 as a collaborative industrial metal project between Sanford Parker (Minsk, Nachtmystium) and Bruce Lamont (Yakuza), explicitly conceived as a tribute to the late-1980s and early-1990s Wax Trax! industrial scene. The project operates with a rotating cast of guest drummers, including Steve Shelley, Dave Witte, and John Herndon, while Parker and Lamont handle all other instrumentation. Their debut album Destroy the Light was released on Relapse Records in 2010.
Punishing Industrial / Groove Metal out of Texas.

Industrial black metal act from Enschede in Overijssel, active since 2003. Control Human Delete merges cold electronic elements with black metal ferocity over two decades of output.
Spokane's Convergence represent the Pacific Northwest's commitment to straightforward, crushing death metal — no gimmicks, just dense riffing and relentless forward momentum. Their music channels the isolation of the inland Northwest into a bleak, focused assault.
Chicago industrial metal and experimental supergroup featuring members of Eyehategod, Nachtmystium, and Yakuza, built around noise, aggression, and a deeply unsettling sense of dread. Their records feel less like albums and more like transmissions from somewhere very dark.
