Progressive melodic death metal band from Falun, Sweden, active since 2015 and combining the technical precision of progressive metal with the dual-guitar harmonies of Scandinavian melodic death metal. Their output channels the rich musical heritage of Sweden's Dalarna mining region.
Minneapolis's Pyreworks carve a path through melodic death and thrash metal, bringing Scandinavian melodic precision to a Midwestern thrash backbone, with tightly executed riffs and a forward-driving intensity that defines their sound since 2019.
Brooklyn's Pyrolatrous channel the blackened melodic death metal tradition into a modern, technically precise form, threading scorched atmosphere and lead-driven melody through aggressive riffwork that draws on both Scandinavian melodeath and raw black metal since 2016.
Technical melodic death metal band from Rzeszow, Poland, active since 2011, ironically named after the fear of fire while delivering incendiary technical death metal. Over a decade of activity marks their technical dedication.
Formed in Americana in 2017, Póstuma deals in Swedish-influenced melodic death metal built around the powerful clean and harsh vocal interplay of singer Bia da Aldea and the twin-guitar work of Rodrigo Batista and Júlio Alves. Their 2020 debut EP "Moralis" draws thematically on Greek mythology and philosophy, channeling the spirit of early In Flames and At the Gates into four tightly constructed tracks that balance aggressiveness with melody.
