Philadelphia death metal band Horrendous formed in 2009 out of a shared obsession with classic death metal from both sides of the Atlantic and have since evolved into one of the most critically acclaimed acts in progressive death metal. Their debut The Chills (2012) established the band's old-school foundation, while Ecdysis (2014), Anareta (2015), and Idol (2018) demonstrated increasing compositional ambition. Ontological Mysterium (2023), released through Season of Mist, was named Decibel Magazine's album of the year, cementing the band's position at the forefront of modern death metal.
Human Equation is a progressive death metal band from Huixquilucan/Naucalpan, State of Mexico, formed in 2003. The band is signed to Sun Empire Productions and released their debut full-length, The Human Universe, in 2019, a record that thematically explores the Anunnaki theory of human origin.
