Ceremonial Flames is a symphonic black metal band from Teresina, Piauí, Brazil, whose lyrics explore ceremonial magic, Goetia, Kabbalah, Thelema, and Hermeticism.

Cerimonial Sacred is a Christian symphonic black metal (unblack metal) band from Santa Bárbara d'Oeste, São Paulo, Brazil, originally formed in 1998 under the name Mortificado. The duo of brothers Melancton Samengalef and Abissai Darkaliel blends symphonic black metal intensity with overtly Christian lyrical themes, referencing the sacred rituals of worship in the band's name. Their catalog includes the album "Our War Is Only Against Hell" (2005, Extreme Records) and "Christ Worshippers," released through Vision of God Records.
Chaosweaver formed in Helsinki, Finland in 2004, constructing a symphonic black metal sound augmented with industrial electronic elements and thematic interests in theoretical physics, Finnish mythology, and chaos theory. The band drew compositional influence from Jean Sibelius, Carl Orff, and Richard Wagner alongside extreme metal predecessors. They have released two studio albums and maintained a relatively low profile within the Finnish metal underground.
