Noma is a death metal and metalcore band from Neuchatel, Switzerland, active since 2012. The band merges death metal brutality with metalcore structure from the French-speaking Jura region.
NoneTheLess hail from Walker, Minnesota — a small town in the lake country of the north-central part of the state — and have been playing groove metal and metalcore since 2016, a combination that emphasizes both body-moving riff patterns and the kind of dynamic vocal delivery metalcore has made central to its identity. There's something characteristically Midwestern about their persistence: a band building a following in a region where metal infrastructure demands patience. Their hybrid sound occupies a well-worn but consistently effective lane where groove and aggression reinforce each other.
Norrsköld is a multi-genre extreme metal band from Gothenburg, Sweden, active since 2014. The band draws from black metal, death metal, folk metal, and metalcore to create a richly layered sound from the heart of the Gothenburg scene.
Nosebleed is a metalcore/thrash metal band from the Burgdorf-Hanover area of Lower Saxony, active since 2015. The band fuses metalcore breakdowns with thrash intensity from the greater Hanover metropolitan area.

Not as Mine is a German metalcore band active since 2003. Over two decades, the project has contributed to Germany's metalcore scene.
Not Yet Fallen is a melodic death metal and metalcore band from Padua, Italy, active since 2013. They balance melody with intensity from this ancient university city in the Veneto.
