Catanduva, BR · 2023–present · active
M60 in Hands is a raw black metal and noise solo project from Catanduva, São Paulo, Brazil, formed in 2023 and operated entirely by Billy Grind, who handles all instruments and vocals. The project released the EP "Infinity War in My Head" in 2023 and appeared on the 2024 split "Old Skull Black Metal" alongside Night Goat on Podreira Records, paying tribute to first-wave black metal acts Von and Root.
Barretos, BR · 2009–present · active
Malignus Morttvss is a singular one-man project that began in raw black metal territory before mutating into a deliberately abrasive collision of noise and goregrind, self-released through the project's own MASMORRA Independent imprint. Albums like "WHITENOISE" and "FUCK LOVE" reveal an artist more interested in sonic provocation and controlled chaos than genre conventions, operating entirely outside the mainstream underground.
JP · 1979–present · active
Merzbow is the noise project of Tokyo-born artist Masami Akita, active since 1979 and named after Kurt Schwitters' Dadaist Merzbau installation. One of the most prolific artists in any genre, Akita has released over 500 recordings of dense, abrasive harsh noise, with landmark releases including Venereology (1994), Pulse Demon (1998), and the fifty-disc Merzbox (2000). Beginning as a cassette-trading project in the early 1980s, Merzbow has remained the defining name in Japanese noise music for over four decades.
